Friendly neighborhood biologist here. I see a lot of people are talking about biological sexes and gender right now. Lots of folks make biological sex sex seem really simple. Well,

MOVE ASIDE ANTIBODY TESTS—Get ready for T-Cell testing for #COVID19 to identify past infection. Unlike antibodies that naturally wane, T-cells persist much longer. Of 70 COVID survivors, T-cell #COVID19 test

Thank you for sending me this paper in Science Immunology (one of many now) showing strong immunity developing in health care workers even after asymptomatic or mild infection. Wanted to

The CanSino vaccine is based on a modified cold-causing virus that can't replicate and carries the instructions for human cells to make a key SARS-CoV-2 protein. This is turn stimulates

Vaccines are combat training for your immune system. They show it what to expect from a virus/bacteria so your cells can build a better defense when the actual pathogen arrives.

I’m assuming the media’s new found interest in T-cells is directly related to Scott Atlas, and his much needed (all be it simplified) public update on the science of COVID

Given that a percentage (8%-https://medium.com/medical-myths-and-models/the-human-genome-is-full-of-viruses-c18ba52ac195) of our own DNA is virus-based & viruses are VERY adaptable in that they MUTATE FREQUENTLY (https://www.sciencedire

So the @Novavax results showing 90% vs. 49% efficacy make the results of the @JNJNews results even more exciting. JNJ is evaluating their Ad26 vaccine in S Africa as

How does the immune system work? Will there be #COVID19 vaccines? @BioRender & I put together ‘immunology 101 tweetorial for non-immunologists’. @jerryguartist, @shizaoki, @JungHeeSciViz also made this accompanying video. Please
