What could possibly go wrong?

 

Chinese lab crafts mutant COVID-19 strain with 100% kill streak in ‘humanized’ mice: ‘Surprisingly’ rapid death

 

In a Wuhan-esque study, Chinese scientists are experimenting with a mutant COVID-19 strain that has a 100% kill streak in “humanized” mice.

 

and

 

Francois Balloux, an epidemiology expert at the University College London’s Genetics Institute, slammed the research as “terrible” and “scientifically totally pointless.”

Arctic zombie viruses in Siberia could spark terrifying new pandemic, scientists warn

 

Humanity is facing a bizarre new pandemic threat, scientists have warned. Ancient viruses frozen in the Arctic permafrost could one day be released by Earth’s warming climate and unleash a major disease outbreak, they say.

I was looking for memes for a certain poster with a pasta themed username and I couldn't resist putting this one here:

There is no vaccine for tuberculosis, correct? 


 

There is a vaccine for TB called BCG

 

About three out of every 10,000 people who get the vaccine experience side effects, which are usually minor except in severely immuno-depressed individuals. While BCG immunization provides fairly effective protection for infants and young children[3] (including defence against TB meningitis and miliary TB),[4][5] its efficacy in adults is variable,[6] ranging from 0% to 80%.[4][7] Several variables have been considered as responsible for the varying outcomes.[4] Demand for TB immunotherapy advancement exists because the disease has become increasingly drug-resistant.[1]

 

Also -

 

Other tuberculosis vaccines are at various stages of development, including:

  • MVA85A, a viral vector vaccine that uses an MVA virus engineered to express a tuberculosis bacillus antigen in host cells. Human and animal trials were disappointing.
  • rBCG30 is a version of the BCG vaccine engineered to express a higher amount of a certain antigen. It showed promise in animal tests in 2003[8] and phase I human trials in 2008.[9]
  • MTBVAC,[10] an attenuated form of Myobacterium tuberculosis. Phase II trials were completed in 2021 and 2022; phase III trials began in 2022 and will run until 2029.[11][12]
  • M72/AS01E, consisting of two fused tuberculosis bacillus protein antigens together with the adjuvant AS01. It is intended to prevent tuberculosis in people with a latent infection. Promising phase II trials were completed in 2018 and phase III trials are planned.[13]

New vaccines are being developed by the Tuberculosis Vaccine Initiative (TBVI).

That's good news. I had never seen that.

My class in nursing school were all vaccinated with BCG...got the scar to prove it. Not a single side effect was noted amongst my class members.

Pharmacies in BC have given an aggregate of over 2.38M COVID-19 and flu vaccinations since Septemberish.

Good job to everyone protecting themselves and their loved ones.

Man, that should be a lot of people who should be dying if anti-vaxxers were to be believed.
