Re: Coronavirus

Check with your GP - they will know (when you get a call to get the vaccine).

Probably, possibly the same for other vaccines.

Possibly not in the Pfizer case; possibly so in the Oxford case if my reading is correct.

Quote:
Since mRNA vaccines use genetic code, the companies could swap out which sequences are used based on sampling done close to when the flu seasons are most severe. Traditional flu vaccines, by contrast, are grown in chicken eggs or insect cells, and consist of inactivated or weakened virus, or viral proteins.

Re: Coronavirus

Oh look, something we didn't already know.

Quote:
Appearing before the Science and Technology Committee this morning, Sir Patrick Vallance admitted that “there is no really hard evidence on curfew times”. Under questioning from Greg Clarke, Vallance said the decision to impose the curfew had been based on the assumption “keeping people longer in an environment where there is also alcohol is likely to increase risk”.

BANGKOK (Reuters) - Thailand issued a new coronavirus warning to the party-going public on Friday after a cluster of 13 cases was traced to a group of friends who shared cigarettes and drinks.
Just takes one infected person to infect dozens of others.

Outbreaks as a result of not having a curfew.
Don't see how a mass of evidence either way, could be presented, as this is a new situation.
Plus in both instances, just one infected person is blamed. Doesn't take much.
More enough people currently behaving like idiots when sober, without bringing alcohol into it.

So the virus knows what time it is and won't infect you before 10.00pm but will at 10.01.

In the 2 instances you quoted there was no curfew introduced.

Looking at the formulation on page 9 here - https://assets.publishing.service.go...fessionals.pdf there's no antibiotic present.

The 'TLDR' answer is that there just seems to be some weird fats, some conjugated with inert polymers which form the 'shell' of the active vaccine, the mRNA itself and some benign salts and sugars which we have in our bodies anyway.

If it's the fats which are causing the issue, that's a big problem as they are key for the mRNA delivery in to the cell. That said, if the reactions were common, they would be picked up during clinical trials.

What's missing from all the headlines is what were these two people affected allergic to. If they are clinical staff, my bet would be latex...
