Excellent news, especially the Regeneron funding which is very big for the immunocompromised:https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/us-govt-awards-14-bln-development-new-covid-therapies-vaccines-2023-08-22/ posted:US govt awards $1.4 bln for development of new COVID therapies, vaccines

mawarannahr posted:"Biomedical Journal" sounds like a fake journal name on TV There are a lot of legit journals that have stupid-sounding names because all the good ones were taken by the 1900s, but yeah, "X journal" is pretty weird phrasing. Gunshow Poophole posted:ultimately this is doubly infuriating because regular-rear end protein folding and bond energy interaction analysis / computer crystallography is a legitimate branch of research. people disingenuously labeling everything with LLM / AI nonsense just dilutes all of it across the board. My partner's job is developing protein folding prediction software and as far as I know, he only uses complicated physics-based modeling, no AI involved. I'm not qualified to say that AI is or isn't useful here, but there's clearly plenty of room to innovate without it.

Is there something people aren't getting here about "COVID is an airborne disease that causes immune dysfunction" being a completely separate discussion than "AIDS is a completely different disease and calling COVID 'airborne AIDS' is no more correct than calling it 'like a flu'" It's just throwing mud in the water for no reason to conflate the two things

Buffer posted:I think Leonardi put it something like “Ebola is airborne and absolutely dumpsters the immune system but it’s not airborne AIDS either.” I'm going to quote him in full again because I just love the phrasing No, COVID is not “airborne AIDS." But what it does to your immune system is still scary Anthony Leonardi posted:If someone gets an Ebola infection, their blood is a T cell graveyard. It's a site of cremation. It's just chaos, it's insane. But we don't call Ebola 'airborne HIV' or 'airborne AIDS.'

The Oldest Man posted:There's always more and it's always worse Exactly. It's so routine as to be predictable. If you saw how many fucks the US government (and in general most non-politics-brained citizens) gave about air quality or public health before COVID, how can you be shocked, dismayed, and/or doomy over the non-response to covid? everything about what happened from early 2020 to today was entirely predictable, down to the jingoistic rhetoric targeted at countries that did enact meaningful covid responses.

Well I'll give you two reasons: 1. A predictable tragedy is not a lesser tragedy 2. Some genuinely hopeful developments happened in 2020 that were then dumpstered as soon as it became politically expedient and seeing how rapidly people were willing to give up on doing anything better when told to disbelieve their lying eyes is, itself, tragic.

mawarannahr posted:I would like to, personally. I got all the other rounds as fast as possible but it's gonna be about a year since my last dose of Moderna and I am not excited. I've almost never felt so hosed up. it you add up all the days I guess I've been on my rear end for 9-10 days from all the shots so far. I didn't get COVID yet though. Another vote for novavax. I had astrazenica, Pfizer and novavax. The others left an achy arm. Novavax felt fine, no response. Novavax also is meant to be more effective against a wide range of strains which is a bonus.
