Mod: The purpose of this thread is baked into the title - COVID-19: Vaccine/antidote and testing procedures - it's not a platform to push an anti vaccination agenda. If posters wish to discuss the perceived cons of vaccinations, or push various theories regarding 'the agenda' (whatever that is supposed to mean), open a thread elsewhere on it.

There might be ways how to solve some auto-immune disorders as well by creating proteins that bind to rouge antibodies but don't block the bodies own signaling proteins for the same receptors.

Interestingly having experienced regulatory body audits by FDA, Korea, Japan, Brazil, China, Australia and a number of notified bodies, by far and away the toughest auditors are those from HPRA

I have worked on Products that were in the field in Japan, SK and Australia for 2 years before submitted to FDA as they are able to iron out problems and it’s easier if the device been on the market beforehand. With FDA you change a few words in the service manual and it’s costs something like $28K CE mark usually just means you won’t cut or burn yourself on the device and it doesn’t harm the environment, it’s not as extensive as proving it does what it says on the tin.

Now that you asked I did a quick google search, just to see what the proper smart people think about it. Well, they're already doing stuff:https://investors.modernatx.com/news-releases/news-release-details/moderna-builds-clinical-validation-systemic-delivery-two There is also a mention of an antibody delivered this way. Probably for people who can't make antibodies due to various immune system conditions.

My oh my, they have alot of fingers in many different pies. I wonder if they will eventually be able to personally tailor some of it ...out of ones own rna, so as to not have the sense of 'other' than yourself doing the delievery/repair. The tech might even be able to possibly help diabetes T1 or even restore sight for some, as long as it works with no unintended side effects downstream. Which brings me back to a dream last April I had re being able to glue/bind the two ends of the sars coV 2 rna together to make it inert. (any nfp scientists out there want to run with my crazy idea?) Maybe someday I might be able to work with agencys overseas like my friends which I cant at the moment due to medical reasons. Anyhow that made my saturday night with nothing open and just the wind gusting and hail beating down outside, much less boring. Thanks

How many residents pass away every month in nursing homes? I wonder will families of those begin to question its safety. Then onto the general public. Let’s just say we get the vast majority done in 6-9 months. There’ll definitely be confirmation bias when someone says “oh I had a terrible X days after the vaccine” and the one thing we’ll all have in common is recently vaccinated. Has such a wide scale vaccination happened before? At least with age-based vaccinations, correlations can be drawn. But everything from mild colds to more serious diagnoses will likely have people skeptical as they’ve “recently” taken the vaccine.

So still restrictions and lockdowns alongside the vaccine? What the hell would the point of the vaccine then!? Feck off.......
