@mmsperry Fascinating study from DARPA THoR program- strengthening host resilience to infection

@sethkroll Seriously?

@ashishkjha @POTUS Congratulations!!!

@EricTopol Great news if this continues

Why do adults carrying excess weight seem so vulnerable to Covid? The coronavirus can invade body fat, researchers have found.  https://t.co/5fnmoFNCQn

Top 5 cases/capita in the world in any country or state with population >1 million
1. Louisiana 121/100,000
2. Georgia (country) 100/100,000
3. Florida 99/100,000
4. Mississippi 96/100,000
5. Botswana 96/100,000
Fully vaccinated in Georgia and Botswana 6%

[Ashish K. Jha @ashishkjha]

Today, the 5 most vaccinated states (14M people) had

580 people in hospital, 12 deaths

In the 5 least vaccinated states (16M people)?

6,600 hospitalized, 104 deaths

Per capita , least vaccinated states have

10X hospitalizations and 7X deaths

So yeah, vaccines are working

QUICK THREAD ON VACCINES & DELTA: Friday's @PHE_uk report said that viral load in infected vaccinated people was similar to that of uninfected people.

As has been pointed out by others, this does *not* mean all is lost and vaccines don't work.

10 tweet thread explaining why!

Congratulations @JollyPawan! We’re so proud!

We focused this study on MDR Staph and E coli vaccines. The technology could be applied to bacterial, viral, fungal infections in human & veterinary medicine

[Wyss Institute @wyssinstitute]

Biomaterial vaccines developed by the Wyss and @hseas researchers open up future possibilities to ward off bacterial infections in hospitals and future epidemics.

Proud to contribute to this work led by Dave Mooney @wyssinstitute and his team that resulted in the development of a powerful new broad spectrum infection vaccine. Useful for antibiotic resistant organisms and for ring vaccination protection even with pathogen ID unknown

Update July 2
Cases dropped to 151
Zero deaths (for over a week)

We @wyssinstitute and @BOABiomedical are very excited to see our blood cleansing technology move into the clinic.
