Lacson on Sinovac vaccine: Our officials were both tongue-tied and stuttering. I could not understand why we are being kept in the dark with the price negotiations with Sinovac while our neighboring countries cannot be more transparent about it
Lacson says countries like Thailand and Indonesia have been transparent with their vaccine procurement of Sinovac
Thailand has procured the Sinovac vaccine for ₱683. 30 and ₱240, respectively.

Lacson: Will somebody explain the ₱1,814.75 per dose price of Sinovac vaccine?
Lacson: It appears that our initial lock in agreement will not be covered by the ludicrous 300% markdown
Lacson says he is not accusing anyone of corruption: It defies logic to suspect an attempt to overprice the vaccine.

Lacson: When there's an attempt at overpricing, isn't it logical to think na may kikita ng limpak limpak?
Lacson: Our vaccine program officials brought more confusion and bewilderment in their rush to procure Sinovac
Lacson notes that Sinovac still has no FDA approval and has no clinical phase three trial results for EUA
RELATED: Pfizer is the first developer to be granted emergency use authorization (EUA) in the Philippines, while Sinovac, AstraZeneca, and Gamaleya have submitted their EUA applications https://t.co/PjMth4zeRT
Lacson presents a study of the efficacy rate of the Sinovac vaccine.

Lacson says Sinovac is one of the most expensive vaccines, yet it's efficacy rate falls behind the other brands: The issue of Sinovac is not just a matter of price but of efficacy
RELATED: A COVID-19 vaccine developed by China’s Sinovac Biotech was just 50.38% effective in late-stage trials in Brazil, significantly lower than earlier results showed, according to a statement published by the government of São Paulo https://t.co/tAReMnP3PR

-They needed to get away from the Republic and create a Democracy in order to drive us towards socialism and inevitably a dictatorship (National Socialist Party aka NAZI)

Caveat: This article is sourced from @Daily_Express !!!

"End of Sturgeon?"

Frankly, an appropriate response from @NicolaSturgeon might be to quote the infamous Mark Twain response to an erroneous 'obituary' known to all...

"The reports of my demise are greatly exaggerated."

https://t.co/Ce1xVVISR2

More accurately, the media have quoted:

"Ms Sturgeon said she had a “real job to do” and was focused on guiding Scotland through the Covid-19 pandemic."

It's very reassuring to hear that @scotgov and @ScotGovFM have prioritised safeguarding lives and Scotland, above all else.

"I’ll leave others to play games or politics. I have got a real job to do and people can decide themselves whether I am doing it well or not, but I am absolutely 100 per cent focused on leading this country through a pandemic."

💯% 😀👍

Making her priorities crystal clear!

“That’s what I’ve done since this time last year and it’s what I’m going to continue to do for absolutely as long as necessary.”

And again, making it absolutely crystal clear!

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.

https://t.co/FBfXhUrH5d


Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.


...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.


Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.
