US Army develops vaccine to fight all COVID variants

The US Army has developed a vaccine to fight all variants of COVID-19, including Omicron and Delta — as well as all prior coronaviruses and strains not yet identified.

Scientists at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research expect to announce the one-stop shotin just weeks after nearly two years of research that began with the DNA sequencing of the COVID-19 virus in early 2020, Defense One reported late Tuesday.

Infectious disease specialists at the Department of Defense’s largest biomedical research facility completed animal trials earlier this year with itsspike ferritin nanoparticle vaccine, or SpFN, with positive results, according to the report.

Phase 1 of its human trials are now under final review after testing against Omicron and other variants was completed earlier this month — again with promising results, the director of Walter Reed’s infectious disease branch told Defense One.

“It’s very exciting to get to this point for our entire team and I think for the entire Army as well,” Dr. Kayvon Modjarrad told the outlet.

What makes the vaccine unique is its soccer ball-shaped protein with 24 faces, allowing scientists to attach the spikes of multiple coronavirus variants on different faces of the protein, according to the report.

Human trials took longer than expected since Walter Reed’s lab needed to test it on subjects who hadn’t been vaccinated or previously infected with the disease that’s killed more than 5.3 million globally as of Wednesday, according to Johns Hopkins University data.

The rapid spread of both the Delta and Omicron variants impacted the human trials, Modjarrad said. The new vaccine still needs to undergo phase 2 and 3 trials, he said.

“With Omicron, there’s no way really to escape this virus,” Modjarrad flatly told Defense One. “You’re not going to be able to avoid it. So I think pretty soon either the whole world will be vaccinated or have been infected.”

Scientists now need to understand how the vaccine interacts with people who have already been vaccinated or previously had the virus.Walter Reed and an unnamed industry partner are collaborating on the upcoming wider rollout, according to the report.

Almost all of Walter Reed’s 2,500 staffers played some role in the development of the new vaccine, which still needs to be evaluated in a “real-world setting,” Modjarrad said.

“We decided to take a look at the long game rather than just only focusing on the original emergence of SARS, and instead understand that viruses mutate, there will be variants that emerge, future viruses that may emerge in terms of new species,” he told the outlet. “Our platform and approach will equip people to be prepared for that.”

President Biden announced Tuesday the government would provide 500 million free rapid home testing kits and boost vaccination efforts amid the fast-spreading Omicron variant, which was first identified in South Africa about a month ago.

The Omicron variant spreads even faster than other coronavirus strains and accounted for nearly three-quarters of new infections in the US last week.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country’s top infectious disease specialist, said the variant was spreading at a “truly unprecedented” rate, with cases in the US doubling about every two days.

“It’s not surprising that just a week or two ago we had only 8 to 10 percent and now we have 73 percent of all the isolates are Omicron,” Fauci said Tuesday. “That is truly unprecedented in the rapidity with which a virus spreads.”

One-stop shot with nanoparticles and 24 faces of death and an unnamed industry partner. Yeah, Ok.

So, now the military is somehow experts on virus' and medicine?

What's next - the CEO of Bank of America is going to come out with a easier and safer method to test for COVID?

The US military? Most likely, a lot of the most interesting stuff is spawned from military development or civilian contracts with major military oversight. But **** me, trusting some vaccine from a place that has even less oversight than big pharma? No thanks.

Ikr... why, something like that could shut down the entire country. Crash the economy, cause people to live in fear as they turned against each other.

It's..its all so tiresome.
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.

The U.S. Army Biological Warfare Laboratories (USBWL) at Fort Detrick, Maryland, has developed a new vaccine to fight all variants of COVID-19, including Omicron and Delta — as well as all prior coronaviruses and strains not yet identified.

The vaccine shows promise in early studies by instantly killing the recipient preventing the further spread of COVID-19.
No thanks Jeff.

Now wait and see....

Fauci and the CDC will issue a statement about this soon, along with all the standard buzzwords... untested, too early to tell, blood clots, danger to fetus, etc.

And all the Ronaholics, Faucibots, and Branch Covidians will rejoice...

Just in time. The pandemic will be long over by the time this comes out. Immunity for variants that died out years ago.

They are actually. Just lol if you think the military doesn't have entire wings designated to bio terrorism. I'm sure they have viruses sitting in a warehouse somewhere with a 99 percent kill rate.

Why nuke a city when you can vaccinate your soldiers and just kill the entire population?

None so far, but my dad got prostate cancer a few years ago (former military as well). We don't have a predisposition to cancer either.

A link to the original paper:https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34914540/


It's about non-human trials because that is all the publishable data they have right now. All this demonstrates from what I've read is that a vaccine designed for the original strain that shows some effectiveness for the newer strains. Of course, there is a lag between the output of published research and the speed of progression of the pandemic, so it's hard to know where their research is right now.



Even if it pans out, the mRNA vaccines can be adapted for novel variants almost overnight. Omicron appeared in late November and its specialized vaccines are expected to be available in March. And like I've said WRT to the development of all Covid vaccines, much of the time is due to bureaucracy and red tape, which can be cut through in record time due to political and financial expedience.
Back off, Warchild.

Seriously.

Amended. And I did attend the University of Newcastle for my undergrad work, but it's not where I'm doing my PhD.


Whilst Newcastle is ranked around 197 in the world, where I'm at now is in the top 40 and much closer to Cornell in the world rankings.
