If bristlebane handed me the vaccine as an AOE buff, I would cast it.

to explain the alternative to classical vaccines -- we are capable of using these viruses we found in the wild and reprogrammed to recognize a string of DNA and insert whatever string we want before/after it -- that's how gene therapy is done. I'm not sure exactly what DNA we add to make for immunity, but I bet we just add the right string to the sequences that encode for our immunoglobin's recognition factors (not actual terminology) which causes our immune response to recognize some common pattern on the coronavirus surface. To explain that: so, we have these immunoglobin proteins that basically spawn out and recognize various surfaces. It's a lock and key thing; if the lock of the immunoglobin fits the key of the encoded surface, then they bind together and the immunoglobin is triggered by that to murder the thing which bound to it. So we just take the "lock" sequence we either engineered or more likely extracted from a person with a developed immune response, and encode it into our immune system with gene therapy, and then we have an immune reponse ready for COVID without ever being exposed either to COVID or attenuated COVID. This scares people because you're messing with their genome. These people probably don't understand how malleable their genome is. But it's probably safer than giving people boiled COVID. When you hear about people developing the flu from flu vaccine, it's because the virus in the vaccine was not properly killed. This approach removes all that. ANd I think will be the first instance of mass gene therapy, which as we all know made Snake very bad ass. | |||

mRNA vaccines simply insert those directions directly into the cell, which takes them and makes them into immunity-significant pieces of the virus, which the cell then excretes. Those pieces get picked up by your immune system which recognizes--and destroys-- them when they show up again in the form of covid. mRNA vaccines have a potential safety advantage in that they don't actually use any form of viable virus at all-- it is impossible for anyone to get infected with anything through the use of one. It is also cheaper and more efficient to mass produce. The downsides are that it is difficult and costly to transport and store because the mRNA is very fragile. We've also never mass produced and mass vaccinated with an mRNA vaccine before, but it's extremely cutting edge, and is thought to produce superior protection more safely than the traditional viral vector vaccines developed by Russia and China. But given the novelty we simply haven't seen how things pan out long term (multiple years). Still better than risking it tangling with covid as long as they finish out the phase III trials. | |||

PS don't get the Astrazeneca vaccine. They fucked up their trial. They don't actually have 90% efficacy in their intervention group, it's only 64%. The 90% comes from a subset of 2,000 individuals in which their medical team in Brazil (lol) accidentally gave participants a smaller initial dose.
For whatever reason the media isn't really picking up on this. | ||

mRNA is used by ribosomal subunits to make proteins directly. DNA polymerase is used to make DNA copies of other DNA in the nucleus. RNA polymerase, on the other hand, reads specific genes on your DNA genome and makes an mRNA transcript from that gene. In this case the mRNA is just being introduced from outside the cell, borne by vaccine, packaged in a small lipid nanoparticle. It's just a different method of introducing the viral parts into your body. No actual virus involved so no chance of infection, and easier to mass produce. | |||

Astrozeneca is the english vaccine, english people are dirt poor losers still worshipping a bunch of royal idiots, everything about europe sucks and england is the asshole everyone cant wait to lick
Gotta love america we got multiple companies sitting pretty at 90% already getting ready for distrubtion as usual america wins | ||

On the other hand, if it works, and works well, it's going to make Russia and China look like cave men. | |||
