Now out in iScience journal - Fox et al demonstrate that most milk samples collected from women post-COVID19 illness exhibit significant IgA and secretory Ab binding to the receptor binding domain (RBD), an important SARS-CoV-2 neutralization epitope doi.org/10.1016/j.isci…

Happy #Halloween from our growing family! 😁

Oops. Above not below. Application for FDA Emergency authorization can be filed when safety timetable is met. We'll have at least one vaccine into Phase 1a rollout before year end which is a stunning achievement-- from virus sequence to vaccination in < 12 months.

Clever.

In short, 1/3 of Texas generating capacity is out, mostly because power plants can’t get enough NG. Baffling as I thought there was a glut of it in NA and Texas in particular.

Last night, after we’d lost power & my pipes burst, my toddler choked on a peanut in our dark house. We rushed him across town on icy roads for emergency surgery at a hospital that does not have enough water pressure to flush toilets. Texas is a disaster. texastribune.org/2021/02/16/tex…

Let’s hope ⁦Health Canada and PHAC⁩ and ⁦Canada's CPHO⁩ hears ⁦Aaron Gasch Burnett⁩. I am not optimistic, because it would underscore a downside of the delayed second jab policy. But this vaxed Canadian has not seen family for 1.5 years. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

We thank the reviewers for their very helpful suggestions which we now have incorporated in our manuscript.

TLDR: The AA plane mistakenly went straight instead of turning right, and crossed a runway. Runway incursion is the "waiting to happen" next major accident for US carriers. Tech could solve human error, if we were willing to invest now, instead of waiting for the inevitable.
