COVID research updates: A front-runner vaccine shows promise in older people

30 September — A front-runner vaccine shows promise in older people

Older people injected with one of the most prominent candidate vaccines for COVID-19 developed high levels of antibodies against the new coronavirus.

Evan Anderson at the Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia, and his colleagues studied the response of 40 people aged 56 and above to the vaccine developed by biotechnology firm Moderna, based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (E. J. Anderson et al. N. Engl. J. Med. https://doi.org/fbxj; 2020). The vaccine consists of a piece of RNA that encodes a modified version of a SARS-CoV-2 protein.

Participants developed several types of antibodies — immune molecules that fight infection — including neutralizing antibodies, which can disarm an invading microbe. After receiving a second dose of the vaccine, participants had antibody levels similar to those of control-group participants who had recovered from COVID-19. Any side effects were generally mild to moderate.

Maryland, again, some more, with great news!

Via Gov. Hogan on Facebook:

Today, for the first time since March 28, the State of Maryland is reporting zero new coronavirus deaths. This encouraging milestone is a tribute to the incredibly heroic efforts of our doctors, nurses, and health care workers on the front lines, and the courage and perseverance Marylanders have demonstrated in response to this unprecedented challenge. We have lost more than 3,800 of our fellow Marylanders to this virus, and we mourn with their families. As we continue on our road to recovery, it is absolutely critical for all of us to remain vigilant.

What's with the constant bumps? I have posted 10ish pieces of good news. If something comes along, I'll post here. But we got the good news yesterday from Governor Hogan. You can't expect something good EVERY DAY.

Yes, a bump just keeps it on the first page. It’s my favorite thread on the boards right now.

I understand that, but why not bump it with some good news? It's out there and not that hard to find.

Read it on Fox News that Trump is doing very well and is not really sick enough to be hospitalized. He is doing the hospitalization only as an abundance of caution. He caught it from Hope Hicks, but you know how these millennials are, right? Tinder, Grinder, Bumble, Fumble!

Huh? Didn't we all agree months ago to leave politics out of this and stick to good/hopeful news?
