    So ArchBishop Oscar Cruz died of COVID, not of lingering illness as reported in earlier press releases... Pero bakit di na cremate agad???

    because i'm a freaking nerd i'm curious what Taiwan's Adimmune Corp uses to make their SARSCOV2 vaccine

    first, their vaccine is called AdimrSC-2f

    they use a technology called baculovirus expression system

    Baculovirus expression system: a complete system

    To generate large amounts of a recombinant protein, many investigators have turned to baculovirus expression systems. Compared to bacterial expression systems, the posttranslational processing and folding of recombinant proteins produced in insect cells more closely resembles mammalian processes, and the yields of functional protein are often much greater.
    baculovirus is an insect virus

    anyway, they use that technology to make SARSCOV2's spike... specifically the receptor binding domain (ookaay... i was talking about that the other day)

    and that's gonna be recognized by our immune system and make antibodies against... in theory... if it works

    well,
    it's well above my IQ rating.
    but from what i understand,
    it's just another way of making essentially the same thing.
    some folks say it's more efficient, that's all.

    i'm curious about the different approaches to creating a SARSCOV2 vaccine

    the old fashioned way is to take a whole virus and "kill" it and inject it into people

    ganyan ang vaccines nila Sinovac and Sinopharm

    Moderna and Pfizer/BioNtech uses messenger RNA technology

    they don't even deal with the virus

    what they do is send instructions into our cells to make SARSCOV2's spike protein then our immune system will detect it and make antibodies against it

    J&J, Oxford/AstraZeneca, and China's CanSino are all using adenovirus to deliver DNA that code for SARSCOV2's spike protein

    kumbaga ung traditional whole virus vaccine analog

    I wonder how many our new cases will be after Christmas holiday. I'm sure marami tao hindi mapipigilan. Bumisita sa mga kamag-anak, reunions, Christmas parties, inuman.

    I hope may vaccine na available na before the holidays.

    best case scenario 1 or 2 western vaccines are approved in Q4

    then it will take months (at best) to get the actual vaccine

    Yup, looking at middle of next year, arguably at best.

    Why face masks became political in the US - YouTube

    Republicans trust Trump more than health experts. [emoji28] At least dito yung mga DDS nagmamask pa rin.

    From "Model" track and trace country ...


    South Korea running out of hospital beds in COVID-19 resurgence - CNA

    South Korea reported more than 300 infections of the new coronavirus on Saturday (Aug 29), the 16th day of three-digit rises, fanning concerns about a worsening shortage of sickbeds amid a resurgence of COVID-19.

    The Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) posted 308 new cases as of midnight Friday, bringing the total infections to 19,400, including 321 deaths from COVID-19.

    With the surge in the disease, hospitals in greater Seoul had only 4.5 per cent of their beds available for critical cases as of Friday, down from 22 per cent a week earlier. Some 24 per cent of beds for all COVID-19 patients were left, compared with 37 per cent last week.

    "Only about 15 beds are immediately available in the greater Seoul area for patients in critical condition as there were numerous patients who were in a serious condition and needed to be hospitalised," said Yoon ***-ho, director general for public health policy at the health ministry.

    "But we should have a little more room shortly because more people are being released," he told a news briefing.

    In Japan, there is no lockdown. Everything is by request...

    The Tokyo metropolitan government on Saturday confirmed 247 additional cases of the novel coronavirus as the capital continues to see a high number of infections.

    The single-day figure brought Tokyo's cumulative total to 20,569 cases. The capital has seen daily cases in triple digits for every day in August bar one, hitting a record 472 on Aug. 1.

    In an effort to stem the spread, Gov. Yuriko Koike said Thursday Tokyo will extend until Sept. 15 a request for establishments serving alcohol and karaoke venues in its 23 wards, in the heart of the capital, to shorten their business hours as many cases have spread from there.

    The request for such businesses outside the 23 wards to close by 10 p.m. will end Monday as scheduled.
