Sa zadovoljstvom objavljujem početak druge sezone serijala za djecu 📢 'Znanje je moć'.

Prošle godine su učesnici bila djeca iz PG i NK, a ove godine se nadam da ćemo zainteresovati djecu iz čitave Crne Gore! 👇 Teme su vezane za #nauku i naučna otkrića. Ja i gosti ćemo odgovarati na pitanja i dijeliti naše znanje i iskustvo sa djecom ⏲️ svake subote od 9-10 sati ujutro.

Proslijedite dalje, sve što je potrebno su internet konekcija i dječija radoznalost. Zoom link će biti dostupan👇

I've been eagerly waiting to see this type of #VE comparison that includes #Sinopharm #SputnikV #PfizerBNTech.
Thanks to the study conducted in Bahrain by @DrSidMukherjee & colleagues abroad, many of the gaps in current knowledge have been filled 👇 (1/n)
researchsquare.com/article/rs-828… This is particularly important for LMIC that have relied heavily on #Sinopharm administration, and while the @WHO approved this vaccine, the VE data for adults >60 yo have been missing. Now we have the comparison that clearly shows two things (2/n)

Prikladna igra riječi kada se govori o @SeaDanceFest kao 👑 ove turističke sezone.
Koronavirusi su dobili ime od latinske rijeci #corona sto znači #kruna ili #vijenac jer pod mikroskopom izgledaju kao da su na površini ukrašeni krunom. (1/n) 🧵 Zbunjena činjenicom da se ovakvo okupljanje dešava pročitala sam preventivne mjere 👇 i mogu reći da su ovakve mjere mogle da doprinesu ⬇️ prenosa virusa u junu / julu ove godine, ali definitivno ne sada zato što #delta soj zahtijeva mnogo više (2/n)

The @WHO has authorized #Sinopharm vaccine for emergency use, which is great!

The hope is that the manufacturers will participate in #Covax program @CEPIvaccines as @mariangelasimao mentioned, which is especially important for LMICs and global fight with the pandemic (1/12)

As I wrote before 👇 and as the @WHO_Europe @WHO stated in the announcement yesterday, the efficacy of #Sinopharm vaccine in older adults > 60 yo couldn't be assesses.

❓In other words - we do not know how well this vulnerable group is protected❓

A summary of my research on the #Sinopharm inactivated virus vaccine aka *BBIBP-CorV*
📝 1st report describing technology and immunogenicity / safety in primates bit.ly/3dVWx1D (🧵) 📝 2nd report with Phase I/II results - 100% seroconversion, but missing phase II data for >60 group

Thanks to the @CEPIvaccines @WHO @EuWHOEurope #Covax and others, 24,000 doses of #AstraZeneca vaccines arrived in 🇲🇪 last week, and this is just fantastic! But as in other European countries, there is a lot of hesitancy and fear related to this vaccine. 👇🏻 (🧵) The ministry of health @MinZdravlja made the #AstraZeneca vaccine available to all 65+ old citizens, and this is great news as they are the most vulnerable group that was not eligible for @sputnikvaccine and #Sinopharm vaccines given in previous weeks to people 70+ 👇🏻

Following some hoopla that my tweet 👇🏻 caused…

1. I want to applaud all the medical workers in #Montenegro - epidemiologists, support staff, technicians, nurses, doctors - who are at the front line, caring for the many sick people in the hospitals around the country (🧵1/10)

You are the unsung heroes!

I want to make sure that what I’ll say is #not meant to indicate that the #services you provide in 🇲🇪 are not good - I know that you are doing your very best, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart (2/10)

For everybody looking for a break from #coronaviruses check out our @virusfusion007 recent results on a #herpesvirus known as #HHV8 or #KSHV.

The preprint is available at @biorxivpreprint bit.ly/39mvx9I.

The main findings are discussed in the 🧵 that follows (1/n) KSHV and its cousin EBV use an envelope glycoprotein complex called gH/gL to bind to #EphA2 receptor tyrosine kinase to gain access to host cells. We set to determine the structure of the KSHV gH/gL-EphA2 complex and perform functional studies to understand the mechanism (2/n)

Seemingly good news are coming from 🇲🇪 and this makes me happy, but I implore @VladaCG not to give false idea of security to its citizens. The number of detected cases dropped by 50% as their graph shows, but that is largely due to the ⬇️ numbers of tested performed daily. (1/4)

If you look at the incidence rate, it shows a very small decrease that cannot be reliably attributed to 'a better situation' in #Montenegro (2/4)
