Nasal spray vaccines using the Spike protein could prevent infection — not merely blunt long COVID, hospitalization, death — in a way that is safe for even the immunocompromised.
Brilliant primer by Akiko Iwasaki
@VirusesImmunity
on the tremendous possibilities going forward.
It’s time to invest in next generation COVID vaccines that not only prevent severe disease but also block infection and transmission. It makes sense to induce mucosal immunity to fight a mucosal viral infection. My opinion in

#Taiwan
🇹🇼 should be allowed to participate in the

#WHA75

This is both a global health and human rights issue.

I just found out the person killed in the Laguna Woods shooting yesterday was my primary care physician, Dr. John Cheng. Absolute hero. He attacked the gunman and helped save so many in that church. I just wanted his name to be known. He will be missed.

Here is an article for your reference, which shows the effect of HEPA air cleaners installed at different locations.
We are trying to do educational outreach as much as we could to persuade restaurants and offices to install HEPA filters & UV disinfection.

Crystal clear messaging from the White House:
"The most common way COVID-19 is transmitted from one person to another is through tiny airborne particles of the virus hanging in indoor air for minutes or hours after an infected person has been there."

A strength of Taiwan’s 2020-1 Covid response was its centralization. But centralization also means that the public’s preparedness is limited by what the government focuses on.
What areas did the gov’t under-emphasize & how can individuals & companies lead in this next stage? 🧵

People - esp doctors
PLEASE STOP saying that ppl who are highly POS on rapid Ag tests after 5 days are not infectious
There is NO reason to say this
All evidence suggest you are likely Infectious if POS
Biological evidence is MUCH more informative than “but it’s been 5 days”

The purpose of today's test was to attend a 10-person gathering at a friend's home, for which everyone agreed to test beforehand.
The gathering was 8-person. One had tested positive, as had another's partner.
This is the power of the rapid test.
Testing can involve penguins and therefore can be tons of fun
