Alright team, let's get to another pressing vaccine question a lot of you had asked recently: Can those who have gotten complete doses (2 shots) of #COVID19Vaccines transmit SARS-CoV-2 to

Fauci: “We have to be concerned about the mutants” He’s right on the concern for the #B117, #B1351, #P1. Plus the B117+E484K mutant combination is worrisome. #COVID19 2) Here

1) This is why scientific debate is SO IMPORTANT. With censorship of scientific and medical professionals, innovation and discovery is STUNTED! Maybe they want that? In a discussion with @flavinkins

Here is the context: you are going to read and hear about a million and one variant viruses, because viruses mutate by nature. It’s scary, I know. But, a couple

This is very nice work.“Using cryo-electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography we mapped the tetrapyrrole interaction pocket to a deep cleft on the spike N-terminal domain (NTD)”https://twitter.com/RealMcCoyLab/status/1354111925005807

We mapped all #SARSCoV2 mutations escaping key antibodies used to treat #COVID19 (https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.11.30.405472v1). Surprising observations: one amino-acid mutation escapes *both* antibodies in @Regeneron cocktai

In new work, we show a human coronavirus evolves to escape neutralization by antibody immunity (https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.12.17.423313v1). Specifically, we studied the historical evolution of the common-cold CoV-229E to l
