“I think what we have is a universal vaccine against diverse respiratory threats,” Pulendran said.
We now go live to RFK Jr. for his reaction:

Well that about does it for the USA. At least we gave the rest of the world a good, hearty laugh as we all perished from preventable illnesses.
Conspiracy theory that it turns you gay/gives you cancer/makes you a pod person coming in 3, 2, 1…
Don’t forget, 6G.
10G BABY
I’m withholding any opinion until I hear from the head of the FDA who has surely been using the US government’s teams of hundreds of scientists to get the best Gold standard science on this technology
What is RFK Jr stance on it? 🤣
It only just struck me. The federal government is currently headed by several “where is Ja Rule” level incompetents. Enough of the funny, I really, really want to go back to the boring government.

If they can somehow create a powdered version it may finally get him on board
You have to ask?
But what does Ja think? Where’s Ja…?!
Funny joke from a petty bully. Chappelle loves to punch down too much for me to respect him more than anyone in the Trump admin.
Got any examples? Honestly curious.
If you think Chappelle is worse or equivalent to the trump admin, that’s gonna be a tough sell…
Been living under a rock?

There are tons of articles out there about his jokes punching down at various groups, because it’s an ongoing problem and he just doubles down if anyone complains.
“Satire is meant to ridicule power. If you are laughing at people who are hurting, it’s not satire, it’s bullying.” - Sir Terry Prachett
And I never said he was as bad as anyone in the Trump admin, I just said I couldn’t respect him any more than them. He sits in a place of immense privilege and punches down at people who are struggling. He’s in the same company as them.
The only thing the FDA needs to hear is that this will make a lot of money for the shareholders.
Oddly enough, I have a strong feeling this will get marginally more support and a warmer reception than injectable vaccines.
Source: I’ve argued with dozens of people about vaccines in real life, and 90% of them were JUST scared of needles and injections and just built giant palaces of rationalization that consumed their whole lives to validate that fear. You know who doesn’t give a shit about vaccines even if they’re conservative? Diabetics who have to inject insulin every day.
It drove me nuts in the early days of the COVID vaccine and some study came out showing that a lot of the people against the vaccine were really just afraid of needles, but had a good chance to get their courage up if the news media would just stop plastering pictures of needles in every story about the vaccine. So, what did the news media do? They just kept right on throwing pictures of needles on every story.
This is an interesting notion I hadn’t considered at all, you may be on to something there.

But what about the microchips?
it turns you gay
And that would be bad why?
well, my girlfriend would be a bit upset
…and I’d DEFINITELY need new clothes
Dunno, ask Alex Jones, he’s the one peddling it as bad even though there’s reason to think he’s a bisexual swinger.
I mean, if you don’t want to be, that’d be kind of a bummer. I wouldn’t know though…
Aw yiss, Gay x2 here we goooo!
Wait, really? I need something to fortify my homosexuality. Wanna make sure I’m not catching feelings for men.
Ad some Ozempic and I’m sold
Ow! Muh freedoms!
Headline “protects against”.
Lede paragraph: “could one day protect against”.
Article: “in mice”
With three doses, the mice remained protected from SARS-CoV-2 and other coronaviruses for at least three months.
Big pharma whips out their calculator, their eyes grow larger and larger as they excitedly do the math.
Doesn’t it make more sense to view this as something you’d only apply to yourself in the winter months and whenever there’s a sporadic uptick in respiratory diseases in your area, though?
Needles put a lot off people off and it‘s especially confronting to parents with babies and toddlers. Very hopeful.
did they link the paper somewhere?
Yes please.
Can they add this to the chemtrail vape juice so I dont have to go get it myself? /$
crazy shit man.
i just heard about a nasal spray technology that was recently developed for a BCI (body computer interface) using conductive nano particles that can pass the blood brain barrier.
not sure how it works, but just that it apparantly exists.
like nasal spray neuralink.
not saying this is related or anything, besides having the same delivery system.
crazy times we live in.
Be 999,99! Very expensive.
Tell Kennedy it has cocaine and it’ll get approved
Compatible with any disgusting toilet seat that you may want to ingest anything off of, it’s really great. Top big time #1 Mr. President! sir! I am crying! I want to kiss you! Many people are saying!
Mention added immunity from toilet seats for bonus points.
A composition of cocaine, roadkill, raw milk and sewage water and he’s sold.
Alright

Stanford has a constant habit of lying in press releases. Don’t bother reading what they publish until someone else reproduces their work.
Yes, please. We’ve been absolutely rocked by the recent plague circulating around schools
Intentionally spread a new variant of a virus to create demand for a new vaccine because nobody cares about COVID anymore? I’d believe it.
Evolution will happen whether we want it or not and new strains will appear from time to time, just like we’ve seen with every virus ever known.
But if you still think that’s what happened, we’d love to see your evidence of this new strain being man-made.
Exactly. Our immune system is excellent but its immune cell exploration space is on the order of 10^11 potential receptors.
So since RNA viruses in particular can mutate so rapidly, we just use our brains to reduce that by 10+ orders of magnitude and target the antigens we want directly. The end result is the same, biotech is just smarter.

How can a nasal spray protect against bullets?
Maybe the spray has PCP in it so you just don’t care about being shot.
You are assuming they are American.
Americans aren’t too picky about who they shoot
As a fun science experiment, try popping a balloon at your local mall
Huh, I got arrested for breaking into an abandoned building…
must be on the darker end of the skin color chart
I get the joke but for the sake of strict accuracy I’m so white I’m borderline translucent. I just meant that every mall around me is dead and abandoned.
