Aerosolized mucosal vaccines show promise in controlling…
www.news-medical.net“a #nanoparticle #vaccine that includes a fragment of a #SARSCoV2 protein, and delivered it as an aerosol into the #lungs of mice, hamsters and monkeys. This triggered a strong #mucosal immune response — and stymied the spread of SARS-CoV-2 in vaccinated hamsters housed in cages next to one another” https://toot.yosh.is/@yosh/111609209375021433
Holyyyyyyy, it seems sterilizing vaccines might actually…
toot.yosh.isA preclinical trial in mice demonstrated that an adjuvant in an intranasal vaccine improved mucosal antibody and T cell responses against SARS-CoV-2. The adjuvant both boosted the mucosal immune response and disabled the virus directly. Early days. Remember: mice lie, monkeys exaggerate, and ferrets are not people.

In order to max profits I’d want every woman, man & child #addicted to my #products
It probably wouldn’t be in my best interest to develop an ACTUAL #vaccine that created #mucosal immunity b/c that would mean I’d sell less #diabetes #hbp #antiDepressants #pills
no, no, no;we can’t have that!
Cosmetics is INCREDIBLY jaw-droppingly #lucrative b/c of something called #replenishment
Imagine 300 million people addicted to constant #Rx

I’m the worst explainer; literally the worst even in regards to my own industry. Your explanation
Tend to believe or know things based on personal experience, which is quite unhelpful tbh
Had to “illegally” get #IWantMyNovavax & even convinced myALWAYS-by-the-book-rule&law-abiding SO post my 2 shots,to get #Novavax too
If studies came out proving some
#mucosal protection, I’d believe it as something happens to my nose every time I’m exposed
AnnualYES!

#introduction I am an #immunologist at the #universityoftoronto. I study how our #mucosal immune system can influence our health, especially brain health. I love constructive discussions about science and how to make #academia a better place for everyone. I love #cooking, #gardening, #singing, #canoeing and learning from my 2 sons. Oh and my 3 @Cats too.
