Is there a pediatric vaccine?
Iām kind of just a basic moron here but I donāt get why we arenāt ramping up production of the smallpox vaccine and vaxxing everyone in sight. Itās a DNA virus itās not even hard for us to eradicate this right now.
Yes, the old smallpox vaccine is allegedly effective.
The reason weāre not mass vaccinating is that monkeypox is a lot easier to control and itās not fatal.

I donāt even need a mass rollout. Iād be happy if there was some way for those who wanted it to be able to get it without much difficulty.
The mutation rate of a virus is more dependent on the polymerase or reverse transcriptase than on being a DNA vs. RNA virus, but I agree we should be making the small pox vaccine widely available.
14 days to double from 8k to 16k.

What other businesses might be worth investing in due to Monkeypox? Gloves, sanitizer & skin treatments?
I also bought SIGA back then, they make the treatment. After seeing peopleās reactions to covid, I donāt think expecting widespread glove/sanitizer use is wise.
I got in a whe ago at 10. Later doubled my postion at 10.65 . Then cut it Iām half again. Half is in the Roth the other in a traditional account.
Nice! Iām not home and donāt have the info on this laptop, but I think I had the intrinsic value range estimated at something in the $14-15 range, and considered selling recently, but I feel like thereās a really high likelihood it overshoots that - possibly by a large amount.

I guess terrible communication skills arenāt disqualifying for CDC director.
9 days later weāre at 16,836 global (+44%) and 2,890 in the US (+97%). US testing capacity sucks, but itās hard to draw conclusions globally based on different policies around smallpox vaccination.
Just found out co-worker who has been on leave for months has had Monkeypox. Would be one of very very few cases in Australia. Of course the office is reacting as insipidly as youād imagine with everyone considering this as his outing.
