Not sure why the border can’t be open for fully vaccinated people. The data is strong that those who are fully vaccinated have very little risk to those around them. Another summer and my USDs stay in my pocket instead of in BC. :(

I’m not at critter. We rent a house down by the lighthouse. They have been FANTASTIC. Moved our reservations from 2020 to 2021, and now to 2022.
If the border isn’t open by then…..

But, I do believe that some of these ongoing developments are interesting enough for me to forgo that in some instances.
So I will do so to add whatever I run across that is of interest here:

Antisense, RNAi And MicroRNA Explained

Make Way For RNA Based Therapies

The up hill battle of RNA therapeutics to the clinic continues despite extensive use in research. Recall from high school biology that RNA translates DNA code into a language ribosomes can understand in order to make proteins required by the cell.

Fighting the good fight are antisense, RNAi, and microRNA. With their high specificity and relative low manufacturing cost, these technologies may be tomorrow’s biotech sweetheart. In fact, chances are good that previously “undruggable” targets (that cannot be accessed by small or large molecule drugs) are within arm’s reach. However, the main hurdle continues to be delivery—getting the RNA drug where it needs to be, in high enough concentrations, to be effective.

This WEEKLY examines the similarities and differences between the RNA therapeutics winding their way through the clinic and into the marketplace.

Don't go away Nog.
 
Travel restrictions and the lifting of them have been posted on the Heiltsuk Nation website. http://www.heiltsuknation.ca/covid-19/community-first-reopening/

Subject to change but;
Opening July 23 to BC residents
Opening Aug 1 to Canadians and opening the airport.
Dates are based around getting the Children vaccinated and waiting 14 days after that.
May need proof of 2 vaccinations.

I wonder if they will book fishing trips in August at Shearwater?

Nearly all COVID deaths in US are now among unvaccinated​

Nearly all COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. now are in people who weren’t vaccinated, a staggering demonstration of how effective the shots have been and an indication that deaths per day — now down to under 300 — could be practically zero if everyone eligible got the vaccine.

Got my 2nd shot of Moderna today, and they recorded it on the little card that I call the Covid Travel Passport. So far no side effects. I understand Moderna is getting closer to having a booster shot available to be more effective against an earlier variant/s but not the new super nasty variant D. This virus seems to be keeping one step ahead of us. Boosters will be important for those of us at extreme medical risk.
 
Are most people getting moderna these days? I got it for my first shot and going for round two on Monday. Seems everyone I’ve talked to has gotten moderna lately
 
Well I got Pfizer for my 1st. While getting moderna for my 2nd might be acceptable according to naci, I wonder whether other countries are going to recognize this as"fully vaccinated" for travel purposes. I'd love to see my dad that I haven't seen for 2 years....

I got the double Moderna in Nanaimo . They had that as well as Pfizer when I went for my 2nd jab a week ago. Just Moderna on the first round April 14th
