BrainstormNew from This Week In Virology: TWiV 1161: Baby you can drive my gene: TWiV reviews continuing expansion of poliovirus type 2, removal of influenza B/Yamagata from the vaccine, Nobel Prize for miRNAs, protective immune response with a adenovirus-associated virus vector expressing a computationally designed hemagglutinin, and viral [... want %more?] → https://www.microbe.tv/twiv/twiv-1161/05:09
BrainstormNew from r/COVID19: COVID19: Enhanced immune evasion of SARS-CoV-2 KP.3.1.1 and XEC through NTD glycosylation → https://old.reddit.com/r/COVID19/comments/1gd5naq/enhanced_immune_evasion_of_sarscov2_kp311_and_xec/08:39
BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (news): Noise is made about the detection of signals in brain regions. This was tested in 2 monkeys; the signal is very faint. The authors have to look at ratios between days to find only a signal on day 2. On day 3, the ratio of signal is similar between infected and mock. → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11337935518230568213:26
BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (news): The incidence rate ratios showed no increased risk of MACCE associated with the first, second, or third doses of BNT162b2, CoronaVac, and ChAdOx1 vaccines for individuals without or with prior cardiovascular disease (CVD). → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11337939211756480713:36
BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (news): On December 30, 2023, 99.9% of the U.S. population had experienced immunological exposure to SARS-CoV-2 through infection and/or vaccination, with 99.4% (95% credible interval (CrI): 92.4-100%) having had at least one SARS-CoV-2 infection. → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11337952082661489414:05
BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (news): Note that there is not a decline in immunity. SARS-CoV-2 is a virus, like many respiratory viruses, that reinfects with the help of two factors: physiological antibody waning, and selection of variants with reduced neutralising antibody binding. This is, again, physiological. → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11337952256702116514:14
BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (news): That does not mean targetting Spike is not good, also among antibodies the focus will be increasingly on conserved epitopes. This counts for neutralising antibodies, but also others that are important in curtailing infection and transmission. → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11337979811928762215:21
