This is true of the large scale vaccine trials, yes. However, there have been several small long term monitoring studies that test immunity persistence post infection recovery, and they seem to show that replication is effectively prevented

I'll try. I'm no expert but I read a lot about this and people keep asking me to explain it to them. First of all, there is no way to entirely prevent infections and transmission of something that replicates in poorly perfused (l

Cables with power delivery have a single wire for power negotiation (CC) and a single pair of power/ground. The connector , on the other hand, has two CC pins (one of which is connected to the CC wire, and the other is not) and two

Sorry, but you do sound like a crazy conspiracy theorist. I suspect the reasoning for this measure is to prevent everyone calling them all the time to try and arrange a vaccination while there isn't enough vaccine available. Here in Ge

Half-dose group was unplanned and they switched everyone to full dose when they found out. It was in the beginning of the trial and they had only administered it to young healthy UK people by then.

There is actually a plan to gradually offer all placebo group patients the vaccine. This will be done in small groups at a time, in order to not inform all remaining participants which group they are in. The plan is to have all placebo grou

I wait for backups because I do an incremental backup before I go to bed every night and I want it to be done quick so I can shut things down.

I'm sure it's possible, but that means effectively that said person is now an undocumented trial participant. They have gotten injected with an unapproved medical product. That's a risk they've taken in order to get in e

No vaccine can entirely prevent transmission of an airborne pathogen that replicates in the upper airways - there's not enough blood flow there, so some replication will always happen before the immune system reacts sufficiently, and d

They typically need to go for much longer for two reasons: 1. You normally don't expose so many people to an untested medicine, so trials tend to be smaller than this. In this case there was no shortage of volunteers, and the larger th

Challenge studies get performed on non-human (animal) test subjects (this was done for the Biontech/Pfizer vaccine), and there's a volunteer human challenge study planned in the UK for January. A challenge study is one where you i

As I understand it the landing legs didn't deploy because velocity was too high and angle was wrong. All this stuff gets reported by telemetry because they know exactly how likely it is that a first attempt flight will fail catastrophi

I think you misread the gp comment - it should be read as "move away from [...] non-electric transportation"

You don't have to run it at full power, and you run it when the sun shines.

To be clear, the complete dataset and approval application was not delivered to the EMA by Pfizer until Monday. You can't expect a regulatory approval in two days - it takes longer to even read the complete application.

Yeah, and given the political pressure they're likely to do it earlier (I believe they meet every 2 weeks, and they received the application documents with the complete data set on monday). Dec 28 is their "no later than" int

This particular vaccine is literally just a bit of RNA in a blob of fat. The fat sticks to cell membranes, and the RNA pokes through. There's nothing more to it (this is also why it's possible to scale up production so quickly)

Innovation can be good, scamming other people into spending money on things that don't work, not so much. There's a whole lot of the latter masquerading as the former. There's also a whole lot of user/customer/commu

It's not too squishy. The important thing to understand here is that a plane is an infinite object in a given subspace - just like a line is. Two infinite objects intersecting give you an infinite object in the subspaces they share, an

No, they won't. They can't survive for long enough inside the body, and are even less durable outside.

Very very simplified: Basically, you have a blob of fat that the mRNA sits in. The fat sticks to the cell, merges with the cell membrane and the mRNA pokes into the cell. It's not a modified virus, it's a much simpler structure bu
