THIS JUST IN: Preliminary Omicron neutralizing antibody study
COVID Variants Vaccines
Jennifer Beam Dowd, PhD
⬇️ TL;DR: IN A LAB DISH (so NOT in real life), antibodies from vaccinated individuals (two doses of Pfizer-BioNTech), were significantly less effective at neutralizing Omicron compared to the original variant—about a 20-40-fold reduction in neutralization. While this is substantially more loss of neutralization than previous variants…this does NOT tell us how well the vaccines Read more…

Científicos han descubierto recientemente que muchos ciervos de cola blanca de E.E.U.U. tienen el virus que causa el COVID-19. Esta es una noticia importante y muy mala. Si vas a cazar ciervos, definitivamente debes vacunarte y usar una mascarilla N95 en todo momento mientras manipules o estés cerca de alguien que manipule cuerpos de ciervos. Read more…
Do COVID-19 vaccines promote the emergence of new variants?
COVID Variants Uncertainty and Misinformation Vaccines
Jennifer Beam Dowd, PhD
A: No. Vaccines REDUCE opportunities for viral replication needed for variants to emerge. Since the recent Omicron news, we are hearing this myth make the rounds again. ➡️ TL;DR: The virus has more opportunity to replicate in unvaccinated populations, creating a FAR bigger risk for the development of SARS-CoV-2 mutations. Even so, the good news Read more…
