I took the antibody test and it came back negative. I thought i would have them because i been working since the beginning of this shyt with people at my job supposedly getting it. Im careful and wash my hands all the time because of work so i guess i was lucky. Still taking my black seed oil and sea moss daily

Well, there was another decrease in deaths today. I understand the urge for optimism but, traditionally, like always stated, death is a lagging indicator. But I do hope its a continuing trend, and upsets expectations.

There is talk that they have learned to treat it better in the hospital and maybe we will end up in a situation where they can cycle through people in the system better than the first time and we can handle it better this time without as many people dying this go around

So now #2020 has moved from Pandemic movie to Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home with the news that alpacas might be our only hope.

How many alpacas do we have on Earth :jbhmm: ?

Tiny antibodies found in ALPACAS could help suppress a second wave of coronavirus and allow countries to safely lift lockdown, researchers claim
  • Scientists in Sweden and South Africa have used 'nanobodies' from an alpaca
  • The experts have claimed that their research 'potently neutralises the virus'
  • The small antibody targets the spikes of the virus which in turn interferes with its ability to infect its host

Alpacas could hold the key to neutralising Covid-19 and help suppress any second wave of coronavirus and allow countries to safely lift lockdown, researchers have claimed.

Scientists from universities in Sweden and South Africa have used nanobodies from an alpaca immunised against coronavirus to fight the disease and prevent it “binding” or infecting a person.



The tiny antibody fragment, or nanobody, targets the “spikes” of the Covid-19 virus, which “directly interferes” with its ability to infect a host.

They said their research “potently neutralises the virus”, adding that because these nanobodies can be cheaply and easily reproduced they could provide a “potent and widely accessible antiviral agent.”

The nanobodies, roughly a tenth of the size of a normal antibody, are “far easier to clone, express and manipulate”.

That was one of the hopes of the initial shutdown. Not going to eradicate the virus, but learn to manage it better going forward. That might be the only thing the government has gotten as it squandered the rest of the year in prep and response
