rooster59 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Chulalongkorn University vaccine development shows promise Praphorn Praphornkul BANGKOK(NNT)-Since scientists from the Faculty of Medicine, Chulalongkorn University, gave a COVID-19 vaccine candidate to monkeys on May 23, 2020, the results look promising, as the vaccine generated an immune response in four out of five monkeys that received the first doses. Dr. Kiat Ruxrungtham, director of Chulalongkorn University’s coronavirus vaccine development team, said the team used a DNA-based vaccine, an mRNA-based vaccine and a protein-based vaccine. Initially, they were tested on mice. The mRNA-based vaccine was administered to monkeys. The team cannot draw any conclusions yet, but the vaccine appeared to stimulate an immune response in most of the monkeys. The team will have to wait for two weeks before the second doses are administered. If all the monkeys develop an immune response, the trial will be an initial success. The vaccine will then be delivered to the United States and Canada for production. They will produce some 10,000 doses, which will be tested on 5,000 human volunteers. If the results are good, the vaccine can then be mass produced. -- © Copyright NNT 2020-06-14 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holy cow cm Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 I'm so proud to be graciously able to stay on a yearly allowance in a country that is so technology great on all worldly levels. I just hope it is true for once! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope it is true for once! Spoiler: it's not. There is a massive difference between saying you are making good progress and releasing a properly tested effective vaccine to the masses. It's still a year away at best and I can almost guarantee you it won't come from Thailand. Edited June 14, 2020 by shdmn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sevenhills Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 They have a vaccine for the seasonal Flu, but there's still the seasonal flu. Anyone that believes another toxic "Vaccine" will be any different isn't thinking. We have an immunity system, we dont need any vaccines <deleted>. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowboat Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 The greatest vaccine is the human immune system. Vitamin C, garlic and chilis all boost the immune system as do essential oils. A vaccine is years off if ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poskat Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 the people who developed the vaccine at breakneck speed ahead of countries pouring billions into the project should be required to be the first taking it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender Rodriguez Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 we all need a toxic vaccine, inject millions in Thailand, for the 58 deaths... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redline Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I thought this was a project in cooperation with a us university, and a Canadian company as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsensam Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 many countries have teams working on a vaccine, some further ahead than others, the uk has one team already into human trials and has a second team, from imperial college, on the verge of human trials.
