US immunotherapy company Inovio Pharmaceuticals Inc has said its experimental vaccine to prevent coronavirus infection was shown to produce protective antibodies and immune system responses in mice and guinea pigs.
"We saw antibody responses that do many of the things we would want to see in an eventual vaccine," said Dr David Weiner, director of the vaccine and immunotherapy center at the Wistar Institute, which has collaborated with Inovio.
"We are able to target things that would prevent the virus from having a safe harbour in the body."
Inovio, which began human testing of its vaccine in April, said preliminary results from that trial are expected in June.
The 40 healthy participants in the Phase 1 trial are given two shots, four weeks apart, of the vaccine, called INO-4800, and then followed for two weeks.

Its very odd behaviour, it's not even if we are debating with the Government itself, just others who or may not have voted for it.
Also, one has wonder what is the point of Conservative Government or any if you can't talk about it's functions positively or negatively... I will also vote against a Tory candidate until they acknowledge fully that people are not born equal it's a core belief that I will not change, have to examples to prove that life is unfair and very nasty for some of our most vulnerable, and Tory ideologies at best are indifferent to these struggles, Personal responsibility, what callous drivel.
Its often alleged by the right or self professed liberal Tory (if there is really such a thing) that the left is millitant and tribal beyond logic and reasoning, however, it's very much a judgement of themselves they are casting out!

I'm sorry but if you comment on a forum, you must expect comments in response. Thats why it called a forum.

If it helps, I hear there's good money spreading Chinese propaganda on random English football forums.

216 hospital deaths across the UK, 166 in England, 147 of which are from the last 10 days. England totals are 8 down from yesterday with last 10 days total down 24
The numbers coming out of Russia, India, Mexico and Brazil are pretty scary in terms of rate of growth. Growth around 6% a dat
We’ve come down a bit but struggling to at around 1% atm. This has slowed.
Our deaths per million are at 522 which is more or less in line with Italy (532). Belgium obviously still up at 700+, Spain 594.
France are below is at 429 with everyone else at least 100 less. We need to bring the growth rate down though.

Right ventricle enlargement a major predictor for mortality among COVID patients, new study finds
Enlargement of one of the heart's four chambers -- the right ventricle -- was the best predictor of which patients with severe Covid-19 infections were most likely to die, doctors reported Monday.

(CNN)Enlargement of one of the heart's four chambers -- the right ventricle -- was the best predictor of which patients with severe Covid-19 infections were most likely to die, doctors reported Monday.
A team of doctors from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai looked at the health records of 105 Covid patients hospitalized at Mount Sinai Morningside in New York City between March 26th and April 22nd.
Of the 105 patients in the study, 32 of them -- or 31% -- had dilation of the right ventricle based on an echocardiogram, or ultrasound of the heart. Of these, 41% died by the end of the study period, compared to 11% of those without right ventricular enlargement.
Enlargement of the right ventricle was the only variable that was significantly associated with mortality in this group of Covid-19 patients, according to the study, which has been accepted for publication in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
Hasn't there been a bloody great cyclone in India as well?
Yes. It’s terrifying.
