I wonder if it reflects the fact that the UK has lost control of the virus; therefore, they're forced to act.
I'm guessing that something which is not cleared/consumed at the normal rate would be present at higher levels i.e. since it accumulates. So yes...
I'm beginning to wonder if the UK regulator is being "awkward" i.e. asking for data!
I'd be prepared to be surprised --- How did they come up with 3 months apart? Thanks @Snow Leopard
When you put it like that, it appears to be relatively easy. However, possibly the problem is getting a proposed study through an ethics committee...
I assume this is the OMF/UK muscle research link Paul Greenhaff, PhD, Professor of Muscle Metabolism, University of Nottingham...
If e.g. there are particular problems/barriers in the US, then another option would be to do this in the EU, UK ----. In fact, Ron Tompkins (OMF...
@Jonathan Edwards has pointed out that the rituximab trial was well conducted. I'd like to see a trial of aripiprazole-abilify in ME; however I...
@Snow Leopard you'll be relieved/reassured ;) to know that: "He [AstraZeneca chief] added he believes trials will show his firm has achieved a...
If this is significant in ME, then I assume that it would turn up in a gene expression study (microRNA) and/or genome-wide association study...
There's a Christmas post on MEAction Global by Janet Defoe/Whitney re Aripiprazole/Abilify - OMF are looking at the underlying mechanism for...
Watching TV late last night (UK) and the BBC 24 hour news said that the Oxford vaccine would be approved in days!
Heard the same, from a neighbour who is a GP, i.e. the UK is about to start vaccinating with the Oxford vaccine (January). Not surprised about the...
Could you post a link to the (New York?) Times article - thanks.
Are there any more (cheaper) RNA vaccines reporting in the near future?
Maybe linked to the point @Snow Leopard made i.e. the Oxford vaccine might not be effective enough to achieve herd immunity (RNA vaccines are)
Particularly true when the vaccine is already being rolled out; i.e. reduce the level of transmission and get on with vaccinating people/ending...
Seems the Moderna vaccine is stable*; however, I wonder if this will come down to cost - Moderna $25 - Oxford $2.5 -- 10X. Also, apparently they...
Thank you @Snow Leopard if the new variant has higher transmissibility (OK that's disputed) then the vaccine may need to be more effective i.e. to...
I wonder if EU has rules re this; however, if you're not subject to an "external" regulatory framework then I guess that leaves flexibility.
Separate names with a comma.
