A coronavirus vaccine being developed by scientists at Oxford University has been shown to produce a strong immune response, according to early-stage clinical trials. The results, published Monday in the British medical journal The Lancet, found the vaccine developed by pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca and Oxford University generated both antibody and T-cell immune responses, which are hoped to be key to stopping an infection. “We hope this means the immune system will remember the virus, so that our vaccine will protect people for an extended period,” Andrew Pollard, lead author of the Oxford study, said in a statement released by AstraZeneca. The trial, part of Oxford’s Phase 2 testing, did not look at whether the vaccine actually protects against coronavirus infection, a question that will be answered in Phase 3 trials that have already begun. The fast pace of the vaccine effort has been cheered by officials around the world, however health experts warn that much remains unknown about the virus, and more testing is needed to understand how to offer people long-term protection against COVID-19, clinically known as SARS-CoV-2. “We need more research before we can confirm the vaccine effectively protects against SARS-CoV-2 infection, and for how long any protection lasts,” Pollard said. About 1,000 people ages 18 to 55 were involved in the Phase 2 Oxford trials, with about half of the subjects receiving the experimental vaccine. Scientists say immunity was detected in subjects for at least 56 days after getting the shot, but say further tests are needed to determine how long the immunity will last after that period. The experimental vaccine was shown to cause only minor side effects, including fever, fatigue and headaches. Phase 3 trials of the Oxford vaccine have already begun in Brazil, South Africa and Great Britain, and will soon be expanded to the United States. These trials each involve up to 30,000 volunteers who will help scientists understand whether the experimental vaccine can really prevent people from catching coronavirus and whether it is safe. How long the Phase 3 trials will last depends on how high the transmission rate is in the test countries. Oxford scientists have said if the transmission rate remains high, they may be able to get enough data in a couple of months to see if the vaccine is working. But if transmission levels drop, it could take up to six months. The experimental vaccine is made from a weakened form of the common cold virus that has been genetically modified to carry the coronavirus’s spike protein into the body, which is believed to trigger an immune response. AstraZeneca has signed agreements with many governments to supply its vaccine if it is proved to be effective and granted regulatory approval. The company has already committed to making 2 billion doses. The United States has been promised 300 million doses, a European alliance has secured 400 million doses, while Britain has claimed 100 million doses. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson tweeted about the latest trial results Monday, “This is very positive news. A huge well done to our brilliant, world-leading scientists & researchers.” Countries around the world have also been developing their own experimental vaccines in a global race to stop the coronavirus pandemic, which has killed more than 600,000 people worldwide. The World Health Organization lists 23 vaccines in human tests, including the Oxford one, and 140 more in lab studies. Chinese researchers also published a study Monday in The Lancet of their own experimental coronavirus vaccine. The study showed modest positive results. However, some scientists have expressed concerns based on the early trials that the experimental vaccine might not work on all people because it uses a harmless virus at its core that many people already have immunity to. China approved the use of its vaccine for its military in June. U.S. drug maker Pfizer and its German partner BioNTech also reported positive progress Monday on their vaccine candidate. https://ioalert..com/2020/07/covid-19-pandemic-study-oxford.html

MICHEAL346:Yes it is nigerian |
Hello webmasters, assuming I have a new laptop with two ram ports and only a single ram(4gb) is being used, if I plug in my previous system's ram(4gb) in the second ram port, will the laptop read 8gb RAM or I'll have to make some other modifications before the system spots the second RAM?
|
donsheddy1:Alright, well If I can raise extra before black Friday, I'll get a better system. Let me research about high-end laptops |
mrcommonsense:Whoa, that's a lot of number. SSD HDD, aside the theoritical definition, what's the difference? |
Hi webmasters, has anyone of y'all used the HP PAVILION DM4 Laptop? I'm thinking of buying it soon, so I needed real reviews. I'll go for the 8gb ram version, either brand new or UK used. I wanna use it for Game development, video editing and web development. Also gaming occasionally (Fortnite, good of war, call of duty and the rest) I read about the AMD Radeon HD which comes with it, and I think it meets the basic requirements of those games

Ayemileto:I've been verified, I created the temporary ID with Corel draw and got verified in five minutes, the selfie I took didn't even have the card being held by me, I just sent an old selfie I cropped - which looked bold and clear.
|
HeavenlyCherub:you need to understand my writing before mentioning me. did i say there are more than one Gods? |
Ayemileto:Hi, assuming I'm creating an ID from details on the temporary NIMC slip, would it be okay if only the front is printed while the back is blank, or I'll need details on both sides? |
Righteousness89:Why do contemporary Christian Church goers neglect the Almighty father, and centre their whole being on his son, whom is just a part and depends solely on the Almighty for sustainment? Y'all be screaming jesus jesus jesus but if the crusifixion was today, you'll be among those archaic murderers who killed him and blamed it on "The will of God". Shame! |
Righteousness89:Obviously you aren't different from the other noisy Nigerians here carrying the cloak of religion. If I sit you down and ask you critical questions about your Jesus, you'll mumble in ignorance but you'll be first to scream when your input are uncalled for. |
Romanoff:Please stop replying our confused kids who've read threads about alpha males and stuff and think arrogant Nairaland comments make them bold. |
Rossikk:Morons are quick to insult but rely on other people's Research or content for their cloak of delusional wisdom. All your comments depict anger and frustration, despite you claiming to have researched well on history and are supposed to be knowing. Well I don't blame you, you read two pages of wikipedia and think you've gotten genuine history, African ingenuity my ass, no matter how strong or lucky an African is, his lack of intellect always pushes him Bellow the Bell curve and his output are always irrelevant. Just look at your life, quoting a dead white woman and seeking affirmation from her words. If Africans were so genuine, why didn't they turn out to be the best race in the world? Nah I get it, blame white people lol. |
Juliearth:Be honest, would you smile over it if your boyfriend suspects you for cheating and then uploads his photos on your what'sapp, facebook and Instagram? Without your *consent*. |
Ayemileto:Okay thanks, I'll just change my current profile photo, university graduation date and name when necessary. Well, do you have an idea for the fee cyber guys charge for national/permanent ID card? Cuz I have the nimc number and details in paper. |
[quote author=olamy7 post=91787704][/quote]Whenever you run a promo, your book will be free. Then later on, anybody on kdp select subscription can read it online free then you get commission. |
KingDann:What are your requirements for the help please? |
Ayemileto:By facial verification, does it mean they'll ask for a video call or something? |
Ayemileto:Ok, by account details, do you mean PayPal account? Cuz I'm lost idk what can be edited on Fiverr. |
erjo:It's very necessary for new publishers, so your book can rank up and probably you get positive reviews. You can do three days at first, then leave the remaining two days for another time. |

Hello everyone, Please how do I verify my identity on Fiverr? I have only student ID card but they ask for passport or drivers license, Please can I use my father's own or I can use Student ID? |
iretiolu92:What are the possible things that want to block my destiny? Or you mean random praying |
Born2Breed:I pray about it but when I do, maybe only one night I sleep well, then the rest I get these dreams. That's why I feel it's not about praying, there's a reason I can't understand that's why I asked, in case someone has had the experience b4 |
Hello everyone, I have a problem I've been facing for a long time. I receive messages of future events through dreams but the problem is recurring dreams of me going back to Secondary school. I wanted to be a prefect but the Senior prefect before that time didn't like me so he cancelled my name from all the lists and I didn't get it. But Everytime I find myself there it's connected to this same prefect-ship! Either I'm being chased by a prefect, or I see my mates as prefects and it makes me remember how I lost my post and this saddens me. I'm in the University now and I'm into unionism, i thought this activity will prevent these dreams but they keep coming almost every night, last night's own was so vivid, is there any solution or explanation for this? Psychological implication maybe? Please substantial informational help, don't just assume evil spirit or blood of jesus talks abeg. |
timifaithus:Nope, but I'm planning on creating a us account, I just need number |
