BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (news): Lastly, don´t be fooled by the attention on SARS-CoV-2 making it seem to infect more frequently and at higher rates. Many other respiratory viruses are very similar, with influenza infecting ~40% of the population per season. → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11124367291808958410:20
BrainstormNew from BMJ: Diagnosing visceral leishmaniasis: What you need to knowVisceral leishmaniasis can cause prolonged fever, massive splenomegaly, peripheral cytopenias, diffuse cutaneous hyperpigmentation, and, if untreated, death in people with a history of residence in, or travel from an endemic areaLow cost [... want %more?] → http://www.bmj.com/content/383/bmj-2023-076715.short11:29
BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (news): What is not clear is if the effects are due to the detection of RNA, and hence activation of an immune response, IFN-production, reduction in metabolism, etc, or due to the production of Spike protein. For this, a scrambled vaccine should have been used. → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11124405807348446411:49
BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (news): So, adding LNP-RNA directly to myocardiocytes at levels not reached after vaccination, may have some impact on cell behaviour with respect to contraction. If this is due to an innate immune response or due to the protein produced is not clear. → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11124405843100506012:00

BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (translated) (news): COVID-19 vaccines have been shown to be equivalent and safe. Then you wonder who those "critical scientists" are. → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11124509564231156016:20

BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (news): Where they do differ is their delivery system, the lipids surrounding the RNA, the LNPs, that ensure delivery into cells. Pfizer/BioNTech uses ALC-0315, while Moderna has SM-102. To determine differences, the authors incorporated a luciferase mRNA. → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11124658993952840322:33
BrainstormNew from Marc Veldhoen on Mastodon: (news): Both vaccines have modified RNA, instead of U, they use m1Ψ, which makes the RNA more stable and less immunogenic. Does that matter? Same for the amount of G+Cs, there is little effect on protein production and eliciting antibodies. → https://mastodon.online/@marc_veld/11124659412005857122:43
