Oxford vaccine in trouble...
Did The Oxford Covid Vaccine Work In Monkeys? Not Really
What to make of this data? It is crystal clear that the vaccine did not provide sterilizing immunity to the virus challenge, the gold standard for any vaccine. It may provide partial protection.
The question then becomes: Will partial protection be enough to control the COVID-19 pandemic? That is an open question. For an answer we can look to other diseases for which only partially effective vaccines exist—HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria. The answers are not encouraging, except perhaps for the protection of childhood malaria.
Best bet so far is the SinoVac, which survived the monkey challenge...
Coronavirus Vaccine Latest Update News / COVID-19 Vaccine Current Status: Here are the 9 top contenders for coronavirus vaccines
Beijing-based Sinovac Biotech is working on China’s one of the most promising vaccine candidate for COVID-19 disease. It has already commenced phase 1 trial and the first dosing of the vaccine for the volunteers has been completed. Earlier, its vaccine candidate PiCoVacc had shown to successfully induce virus-specific neutralizing antibodies in animal trials.
The company had injected two different doses of its potential vaccine into eight monkeys, four of them were given high dosage of the vaccine and the other four were given low dosage.
The macaque monkeys who had received high dosage were largely protected against SARS-CoV-2 infection and did not have detectable traces of the virus in their lungs. However, those who were given a low dosage showed an increased viral load in their bodies, but the company said that it appeared to control on its own.
Sinovac had previously developed a vaccine against SARS but had to stop the production at phase 1 as the disease was contained.
MECQ dilemma: No ride going to work? Employees risk losing job, says DTI chief | Inquirer Business
Companies should provide van or shuttle service for its employees if not then business should not reopen....
Ibang klase talaga mga Pinoy. Dati ang helmet sa siko ginagamit ngayon naman ang mask sa baba ginagamit. Mahina nga yata comprehension natin.

meron nakuhang virus sa lalamunan so meron talaga virustingin ko naman lahat ng nagpositive ng walang symptoms o di naospital ay false positive.
wala sintomas pero may virus = asymptomatic
may virus pero di naospital = may sintomas pero hindi grabe so hindi na pumunta ospital
yan dalawang yan nakakahawa
dapat sa ganyan naka isolate hanggang mag negative
may virus na walang sintomas = nakakahawatawag nila asymptomatics, para sakin wala naman talaga sakit mga yan.pinapalaki lang ang problema. pero pwede rin naman na mali ako
mas madami pa mahawa ng mga asymptomatic kasi walang nararamdaman
sila ung may energy pumunta kung saan saan (super spreader)
ung mga masama ang pakiramdam nakahiga lang mas konti mahawa nila

Pinaka nakakatakot nga mga asymptomatic, just like what uls said, sila yung naka function normally so mas marami sila mahahawa
Basta ako assumption ko, LAHAT may virus. Kaya hindi ko alam how I am supposed to function when I need to report for work in August (floating na ko by that time kasi outsourced na department namin)
Dapat pag walang mask na worn properly, bawal pag bilihan or pwede i refuse ng service
in a parallel universe where everyone is concerned about other people
"i may have the virus so i'm wearing a mask"
"my mask protects you, your mask protects me"
ganda diba pag lahat ng tao may regard sa ibang tao
kaya lang sa universe natin hindi ganyan eh
di pwede umasa sa altruism ng mga tao
so the government should step in and say "if you don't wear a mask you're going to jail"
