That looks like a good selection. If we get GPU support, we could finish them off by summer I would think. There may be still newer variants that would avoid the vaccines for a while.

There would now seem to be a lot of different strains. I list a few:
UK 1 UK 2 South Africa Brazil Japan Danish Mink Farm It seems that we are likely to need an annual jab like for the flu to allow for new variants. But bear in mind that this research is also to prepare for new types of coronavirus in the future. COVID-19 is not the first and won't be the last. A cure that is already known will be much better than any vaccine which has to be started to be developed after discovery. Mike |

Danish Mink Farm what?! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mink_industry_in_Denmark#COVID-19 oh :/ a mutated strain of COVID-19 was found in the animals necessitating the government to cull seventeen million mink oh no... the Danish government announced that all remaining mink in Denmark would be culled Besides the laughable aspect of a farmed, commoditized product still being considered sort of luxurious, everything about this is just... awful :/ |

Bearing in mind that it reputably came to humans from bats via pangolins, so why not mutate via any animal? It makes a cure more necessary.

Sure search for a cure must go on not to rely only on vacicines.
----------------------------------------Here i report of a medical approach made in Guadeloupe (French W.I) A grass well kown there on traditional medecine may have more properties to block reproduction of Covid 19 in humans. the links are directing to french written articles but i post a google translation after https://la1ere.francetvinfo.fr/guadeloupe/cov...e-932647.html#xtor=EPR-1-[NL_1%C3%A8re]-20210212-[info-bouton1]&pid=726375-1571700058-46cfb36b https://la1ere.francetvinfo.fr/guadeloupe/zeb...e-et-reconnue-933286.html It may seem anecdotic for some but that's true scientific research Here one translation of the first link report: // The Guadeloupe Phytobôkaz laboratory at the origin of an important discovery in the fight against the Coronavirus The Phytobôkaz laboratory, through the voice of Doctor Henry Joseph has just announced, on the occasion of the Health Forum held in the Region on February 11, 2021, that pik grass, resulting from the traditional pharmacopoeia, would have the capacity to interfere with the reproduction of RNA viruses in the body. Guadeloupe the 1st • Posted on February 11, 2021 at 5:28 pm, updated February 12, 2021 at 1:54 pm It is a discovery that will certainly make a date in local scientific history. The Phytobôkaz laboratories, in the course of their research, have assembled results which tend to show that extracts of peak grass (Zèb a Pik), resulting from the traditional Guadeloupean pharmacopoeia, had the capacity "to inhibit the pathway of de novo biosynthesis of pyrimidines, and in particular the fourth enzyme of this metabolic pathway which is dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH). Indispensable and obligatory route for the replication of the RNA virus. Clearly, the common herb has the ability to make the virus's host cells hostile to its development and reproduction. Protect the cell rather than attack the virus While the world's laboratories have taken an interest in the virus and have directed their research towards "acquired immunity" notably by the vaccine, Phytobôkaz's research has focused on the very cells of the body. In fact, in order to thrive properly, the virus needs a cell to colonize and corrupt until it encourages its anarchic reproduction in the body. It is this phenomenon that triggers biological alerts and makes the individual sick. Phytobôkaz therefore sought to know if, in our biodiversity, plants could be able to strengthen cells in order to prevent any cohabitation of the virus. This discovery is fundamental to reducing the impact of all RNA viruses on populations (dengue, chikungunya, coronavirus, measles)// As Dr Henry Joseph explains it is like introducing a printed page (the virus)in a printer but you block or inhibit the ink; so you get a blank page i.e no reproduction Let's hope... ![]() |
