GTA 5 came before everyone felt the need to be offended though. It’s almost like we live in a satire reality already.

GTA online is the reason there was no GTA 6 yet. It’s just making too much money to care.

I was thinking that GTA in Mexico or Colombia would be lit. But they keep it to the US.

Where can I read that message? I don’t follow many news channels. But I visited CDC website and their primary message is that vaccines protect from getting seriously ill.

Because some times you have to make a call. Some studies are now revealing that booster shots might be less effective in those who recovered (watched a guy present his unpublished data the other day). But it’s not that obvious.

One reason would be that CD4 and CD8 populations undergo major changes with age. There’s a shift towards exhausted phenotype. Immune system produces fewer and fewer naive T cells in the bone marrow, thymus is less efficient in adulthood as

Not familiar with tumor immunology but I’d imagine it could be challenging to get CAR-Ts to infiltrate the tumor on demand.

Europe has rail. Does anyone know if they use fewer trucks than in the US?

If Facebook and Instagram proved something it’s that you either need dancing half-naked teenagers or conspiracy theories on your network to keep the engagement.

Telegram is very much about content sharing. News, hobby groups, paid adult content, crypto scams, memes - it has it all. Although primarily in Russian.

At the moment I’m working in genomics analyzing the next-generation sequencing data. My primary academic interest is in ageing. I’d love to turn that into a business interest as well. But something in the area of genomic disease markers wil

I was working on enterprise Google Glass apps in 2014. The problem was lack of applications. You could do very few things with it beyond showing some text and pictures.

Do we forget that AirPods solved a real pain? No more tangled wires, and they were the first in-ears I actually found comfortable.

It seems you’re debunking the claims I’ve never made. My point was that it doesn’t matter that mRNA vaccine can be developed extremely fast compared to others, like adenovirus-based. The logistics and production will even it out.

Don’t get me wrong, I got my 3 Covid shots. But that’s within 6 months. No other vaccine is that frequent.

by f6v 5y ago
I think you underestimate the effort needed to create an immunogenic vaccine candidate that doesn’t have unwanted side effects. That’s one of the reasons CureVac failed: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-01661-

I somewhat agree, but condoms aren’t just for HIV and save from other potentially lethal diseases. So the benefit is just enormous, yet folks still don’t use them. At the same time, look the vaccination rates in the Eastern Europe. I suspec

If we had robust enough theory of vaccine testing it wouldn’t matter what kind of vaccine you develop, right?

What I’m trying to say is that mRNA vaccines might not be faster to deliver to market because you still need to go though testing and approval.

I guess the same as in diseases like tuberculosis. I’ve just read an article where they studied immune responses in recent TB infections. The authors recruited subjects from South Africa. I think it’s not that hard to get them to join the t

Regarding your second point, isn’t HIV a preventable disease? In the areas where the prevalence is in double digits, people don’t seem to be using condoms or taking other precautions. Why would they be taking vaccine every year?
