Update on Novavax approval: Novavax has applied for approval in India, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Reuters says that Novavax will apply for approval in the UK, Canada, and Australia this month. Novavax has hit a manufacturing issue in the US. This is a quote from Science Magazine: “The U.S. government has recently instructed [us] to prioritize alignment” with FDA’s methods for ensuring consistency in manufacturing, the company wrote in a quarterly report filed yesterday. The government “further indicated that [it] will not fund additional US manufacturing” until the firm has done so.
Hi, if Novavax is not as effective on variants of Covid, does that mean that it will be completely ineffective against the varient or does it just mean that you may still catch the variant, but due to the novavax vaccine, may not develop the very severe symptoms?
The FDA has stated it will send NOVAVAX overseas, because we have plenty of Pfizer, Moderna and J&J. If you want NOVAVAX cobtact your congressional representatives and the FDA, tell them keep NOVAVAX here, and send the others vaccines overseas.
Such garbage. Why is our country pushing Pfizer and Moderna? Anyone seen where Fauci’s hands are lately? Bet he owns stocks with Gates in one of the two. Sick of the constant ditching of the J&J and meanwhile the MRNA v are killing children
Motivations can come from many reasons. Profit of course, but don't underestimate the resistance of bureaucracies who've become establishments; their resistance to change. Finally, there are the range of dastardly conspiracy theory reasons as well, if one was actually in play.
It’s because Moderna and BioNTech have been working on customizes cancer vaccines for many years, and by 2019 Moderna had the ability to manufacture 2,000 different custom vaccines per month. Because they spent years developing this technology before the pandemic even started they were able to make their vaccines within a week of receiving the RNA sequence for the spike proteins and begin testing it in animals immediately. They were then able to get permission from the FDA to conduct and complete human safety trials before July 2020 so they could start the phase 3 efficacy trials. After that they had to wait for about 100 of their study participants to get sick with Covid so they could submit the preliminary trial data to the FDA for approval for emergency use. All these steps have taken longer for Novavax because what they are doing takes longer right now. They don’t have the ability to manufacture 2,000 custom vaccines per month. They have never even tried to do that.
I would rather lose my job than take an mRNA vaccine. However, at first glance, I would be HIGHLY likely to take Novavax. I hope it makes it to Canada in time.
Thousands of frontline workers in Canada are also willing to loose their jobs rather than take the forced experimental poison... sounds like they know something we don't know (but deep inside we know it's not right). Trust your instinct and follow the $$$.... Government and Big Pharma making billions with our taxpayer dollars... they don't want this to ever end... to much money to be made.
You did a great job teaching the details of this vaccine plus the immune system. Coming from a HS science teacher... I wish they'd hurry up and allow this vaccine!
@@homesteadhappiness1317 in the US , the FDA seems to be blocking it's EUA. They are " relying on the already tried and proven" existing US vaccines. Follow the money, yet again. Japan and many other countries are successfully ordering it! I'm mad.
This one is still a NO. The same thing with other covid vaccines, futile. Covid is non-immunable disease. Vaccines mimic the effects of real virus to our immune system. If the real virus can't give immunity to people, neither will the vaccine. 2 reasons showing it's non-immunable 1. people get re-infected, and as early as 1.5 to 2 months 2. Some hospitalized in their first infection, again hospitalized on their next. A Las Vegas man was hospitalized on his 2nd infection. A repeat of symptoms during next infection. No natural immunity equals no artificial immunity.
@@rosea1021 Well it’s good to know. Novavax is still not around and it stock fall off the table. So maybe I will just have to trust God and use the immune system he gave me.
@@robtheaveragewhiteamerican4403 Yup, & 1. avoid secondary infection if you are sick with one, not only with covid, multiple infections of other kinds are also bad & can overwhelm our immune system. 2. If you have no underlying conditions, maintain a healthy lifestyle, or if you have one already, manage it well with lifestyle changes or meds.
@@robtheaveragewhiteamerican4403 Hey! This came out in the last couple of days: www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2021/s0806-vaccination-protection.html It basically says that unvaccinated people who have previously recovered from covid are more likely to be reinfected than people who have recovered and are vaccinated. It has also been shown in multiple studies that people who are vaccinated are much less likely to get severely sick and die. 98% of deaths in the US in the past month have been unvaccinated people. If you believe immune system was given to you by God, why wouldn't he want you to take something that allows your immune system to be primed for something that could kill you? Hope this science helps!
@@ellyr5444 Well that makes sense. A virus designed in a lab to sell vaccines. Yer right. God doesn’t work like that. God doesn’t blackmail us. I am just glad I am not young. China owns every government now, so we are screwed.
Ask the doorknockers how's their myocarditis caused by Pfizer going? When will they need a heart transplant and where are they going to get the heart from?
@@ruili96, Any idea how many cases of myocarditis occur every day among the general population without vaccines, and how much that is increased by the vaccines? I doubt it, because numbers probably confuse you.
@@terjeoseberg990 myocarditis in general population??? Myocarditis in young adults who took the Pfizer jab. Young people had no heart issue before the jab and afterwards developed heart inflammation. Myocarditis is extremely serious, if you have a weakened heart you are at much higher risk of developing heart failure. Sounds like you took the jab? Haha. Did you experience microscopic blood clot in the brain, i mean headache?
manufacturing complexity is what stopping the company from applying FDA approval. they can not scale it as fast at the MRNA and adenovirus based vaccines
MARK E they can just stuff it then. If the tyrants want me shot up-they better get me this one. Then I will spit in their face. Tyranny. This is what we have now. Stand up-resist.
I would rather take a traditional vaccine too. I read the market and it’s all about investors. Novavax does not seem to get the spot light because it does not fit in with the MRNA narrative. MRNA started in early 90’s. Several major pharmaceutical companies have tried this technology and abandoned the idea because they struggled to get MRNA into cells without triggering nasty side effects. So for MRNA companies, no better time to test it with use of government funds!!
American made agreement with the two companies and thats it....American government with behind the seen force American to take whate ever they order .Iremeber when they stop bringing front wheel drive to American cars 10 years after Europe and stop to bring ingine runs 100 miles in one gallan of gas ....they think about money not the people life ....she explain something suppose to be secret she just took the info from the company made it and market it no enough data if it works or not ...
Agree. The J&J, as I far as I know, isn't even going to be ordered in Europe anymore. Almost totally discredited. As for Zeneca, we all know it has major problems. This one might be the one.
@@Lord_Volkner watch it again. In mRNA, it is a synthetic lipid nanoparticle( which is questionable as it accumulates in the ovaries and spleen). With Novavax the nanoparticle is derived from tree bark, something natural, at least.
It's not old fashioned it's still using spike proteins. That bind to receptor cells and produce immune response to invader. Don't be fooled thinking this is an od school type virus so therfor safer and people won't have any side effects.
@@roddymac998, There’s no mRNA or viral vectors entering our cells though. Our immune system destroys those cells that are infected by the lipid nano particles or viral vectors in the other vaccines. I don’t want my immune system to destroy my cells. I like to keep my cells. But what concerns me is where these Novavax spike proteins go. They’re sticking a needle in your arm and injecting that stuff. That means they’re poking needles through cells and who knows where they’re injected the stuff. Does it go into a muscle cell and explode it? Is the needle as thick as 10 or 100 muscle cells? Is it cutting right through them? Does the stuff migrate between epithelial cells in our capillaries and travel to other places in our body? The lipo particles and viral vectors are likely absorbed immediately by cells adjacent to the injection site because that’s what they want to do. Do these spike proteins attach to the ACE2 receptors of local cells so they are unable to migrate elsewhere?
@@terjeoseberg990 well no not according to Dr Malone they do not stay in injection site and that is the problem. all the swelling and clots will be caused by the migrating from the injection site. Dr Malone says himself he alerted CDC to this fact and it's not been tested enough for human consumption. They ignored him and passed it anyway. Too much investment not too if expect.
@@roddymac998 How much does aspirating the needle upon injection reduce potential migration of spike proteins (and anything else) away from the injection site? Is Novavax meant to be a 1 or 2 shot protocol?
I watched this video last week, and came back today. Its people like you I love to learn from. You are very good at explaining complex issues in simple language. Thank you kindly and well done. When this vaccine comes is released in Toronto, I will go for it.
This is the one I’m waiting on. Prayerfully, the country will manufacture enough to share it with the entire world! I trust the science of the Novavax jab, more.
they need to move ont his asap Pres B should be aware of this and get it out there for our people not all for the other countrire.s...take care of us....not alwasy them....it's all about where the stocks are.....I am beginning to beleive

@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 ya this was announced some time ago. Wish there was an update. So what's your take on the whereabouts of the common flu? Is it really the face masks and social distancing that has this virtually gone?
I've been watching the development of this vaccine very closely and look forward to getting it (especially after Dr. Malone indirectly said some positive things about it). Last week, the CEO of Novavax said the EUA filing (for the US) has been delayed to October (instead of September). I hope the FDA reconsiders the 30-day wait period for review after the EUA filing. I can't remember if they made Moderna and Pfizer wait that long for the review process.
The EU got 300 million doses yesterday day I believe. Let's keep our fingers crossed. Contact your local representatives and make it clear nova is what you want.
You'll be dead within a year or two, just like the other injections. Of course you pharma shills on here have no intention of getting any of this poison.
Count me in. I agree with those saying if it was available the balance of the public would jump in. Let's all pray that all the data keeps looking great and emergency use is approved.
Greg Hunt did an interview 5 days ago and said Nov/Dec. Now we all have to pray that they let us get it as the FIRST jab. If they restrict it's use to booster only, then the conspiracy theories will explode and the anger in the community will erupt!!
Having had Covid I would still want to know the effectiveness of this vs my current natural immunity level. I still think natural immunity last longer. I don't know though because no one is focusing on that.
I’m on my cell phone, but there’s a few published research papers on this subject. I also wish there was more data here. It seems like two vaccines makes more antibodies and memory B cells than getting COVID once, but a year out some people who have had COVID or vaccines have similar levels of protection. I’ll try and send it later.

As far as I am concerned this is very different from patient to patient. It seems to depend on how heavy your symptoms were, your age, weight and overall health. Young healthy adults usually have high immunity even months after an infection or vaccine. Older less healthy people usually tend to less immunity the more time goes by. However you cant determain the immunity only by an anti body test because the infection also triggers your so called T-cells really heavily. So even without any anti bodies or very few anti bodies in your blood you still could have high immunity. So how immune someone is not only depends on ones vaccine and/or severeness of infection but also on ones overall health/age. So the very clear answer to your question is (based on my research): It depends... A lot...
@@michaelflamingsword3131 Yeah, I have been traveling too recently and to my surprise didnt get infected. Honestly its kinda hard to get a feel of how far spread and how contagious this virus is in the real world despite all the numbers we have. But the more you look at it - its not like everyone has this virus. And in order to get it you'll have to meet someone who has it for an extended period of time. Its not like that you get infected by looking at someone who might not even be contagious yet in case this person is even infected. Yeah - its hard to get a feeling to that.
This is the first video I've seen on this channel and I just wanted to say thanks for explaining things so clearly, slowly, and without any loud, annoying music. So many channels have loud and dramatic music for just about any type of video. I like your format.
I really appreciate your detailed explanation. I have been extremely hesitant and refuse to consider the other options available in the US, however, if I HAVE to get one, after your explanation I will choose this one if given the opportunity. Thank you 🙏🏼
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 You have not discussed the nature of the nanoparticle and what happens to it. Further are the spiked proteins merely adsorbed onto the surface of the nanoparticle or are these covalently attached ?

@@ChristiansPrayingTogether sending you a big hug, you are not alone ! I will wait it out as long as i can and hopefully have better options if i a m obliged to do it.
That’s tough to live with chronic inflammation. I would talk over the pros and cons with your doctor or specialist. It probably depends on your risk level. If you are around people a lot it’s probably worth it to get vaccinated. If you can stay home mostly, Maybe it’s safer to skip or wait for Novavax or inactivated virus vaccines.
Me too that’s why I haven’t been Vaxed cuz I don’t want to get worse with what I already struggle with! I also feel that there will be health problems for the ppl who have taken the other vaccines.
Do we know if the spike protein with this vaccine is staying in the muscle at the injection site or is it traveling throughout the body as the MRNA ones?

Then depending how you phrase your search you can find 10 papers saying ivermectin reduces mortality and just as many saying ivermectin does nothing. Honestly, I will have to read for quite some time before I make up my mind. Perhaps this will turn into my next video. Thanks for the interesting question.
It depends on when the FDA approves it. It seems like places like Canada and Japan are taking steps to get Novavax in a few months, but it’s unclear when we will get it in the States. It might be worth contacting your congressperson and showing your support.
After reading a lot about this Vaccine, this is the one I want to take… I am not comfortable taking Pfizer or AZ which are what on offer currently in the UK.. i hope this gets approved soon in the UK.
You should take what ever you can get. If you want the best one the Pfizer has the best results. But all of them will stop you from dying from covid and reduce the spread to others.

I think your video finally answered one of my questions, but I'm going to ask you anyway, if you don't mind please. Do our antibodies completely eradicate the payload of spike proteins that are injected into us? I would assume that since there is no mRNA/reverse transcriptase (?) being used, that there is no constant reproduction of the spike protein in your body? I apologize, my college genetics are rusty. I love your translation into layman's terms. You're very gifted to be able to translate immunology into a form that's easier to understand.
@@jobegs it was on the news recently that our dumb president is holding off on letting us get it. He’s says there is enough vaccines that will go to waste. I’ll be doing more research for sure.
How about the current (Fall 2023) version of the Novavax vaccine? I got the Pfizer mRNA ones previously, but I opted to get the 2023 Novavax because of it's more traditional delivery.
Not an expert... 11:11 = the key to the problem and why current Cov19 "vaccines" don't work the way we expect. mRNA-based vaccines and Novavax are only presenting one component of the Cov19 virus to the immune system. So without knowledge of the remainder of the virus, the immune system can't fight Cov19, it can only fight the spike protein. So the hope is that one's immune system will sufficiently destroy all spikes of the invading virus and the remainder won't be able to make it into the cells to replicate. It isn't surprising that vaccinated people still get Cov19. I maintain that only a "traditional" (live-attenuated or inactivated) vaccine will do the best job at combating Cov19. For some reason, we don't hear much about any being developed. Valneva is the only one I know of.
This was so cool. Thank you. I have a question about what you mentioned in your video's end. Courtesy the ever evolving variants, the protein structure of the virus has changed massively. Since the everything that vaccines produce (antibodies, b cells, t cells) are courtesy the spike protein and since that spike protein itself has changed, how do these vaccines are being said to be effective in still protecting against severe disease & hospitalizations?
I meant to comment you have a talent for simplifying complicated subject matter. Einstein once said, 'if you can't explain something simply you don't completely understand it'
Good morning all! I am actually a participant in the US-Mexico portion of the NOVAVAX study! Reports came out today they are applying for FULL FDA approval this month (Sept 2021). Participants selected were more varied in age, skin color/ethnic background, and with more co-morbidities. This was done to more accurately mimic the normal population. There were approximately 30,000 of us in the US/Mexico portions of the trial. And we are actually being followed for 2 years to monitor for any issues.
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 Thank you for the information. Do you know if this one is less likely to raise blood pressure? I have heard the other ones can drastically raise blood pressure.
@@beatlesrutles I looked into the clinical trial data for Novavax, and they excluded people with high blood pressure (hypertension). So I did not find any data of increased blood pressure. The other vaccines like Pfizer's mRNA vaccine only raised blood pressure in 5% of the people receiving it for approximately 5 days. www.ejinme.com/article/S0953-6205(21)00212-0/fulltext#:~:text=Overall%2C%206%20subjects%20(5.3%25),five%20days%20before%20the%20vaccine. The increase in blood pressure should be monitored carefully. However, I want to mention that it is most likely due to the immune activation. Taking any vaccine twice within a month will cause side effects. I have a video explaining why those side effects happen. Let me know if you have any other questions.
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 That is a worry. If US getting it in Sept/Nov. The rest of the world will be next year. Another variant will be out by that time and Novavax will be out of date.
It’s possible that Novavax efficacy might diminish over time faster than the mRNA vaccines, but the way efficacy was reported usually means people had zero symptoms to mild symptoms of COVID. So the alpha variant Novavax prevented 93% of people from having even mild symptoms and prevented 55% of people with beta variant from mild symptoms. As far as I know though, it kept 100% of people out of the hospital. If COVID keeps mutating then Novavax could still help keep people out of the hospital and keep our doctors and nurses from being overwhelmed.
It had less side effects than the mRNA and viral vector vaccines. It is also the least amount of spike protein because your cells do not turn into spike protein factories. Novavax utilizes the moth cells for the spike replication.
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 Thanks for the reply. Another thing the GSK/Sanofi covid vaccine may soon be approved. Do you believe that this vaccine may be safer than the mRNA vaccines?
Cool video, you have good drawing skills. 😊 But I have some additional questions: 1. Can the nanoparticles enter the nucleus of my cells, where my dna is? Why or why not? 2. Can the vaccine get inside my (other) body cells? (Not the macrophages.) Why or why not? 3. How big are the nanoparticles and why? 4. Is this vaccine effective against the omicron variant? 5. Can my macrophages digest these synthetic particles? Do my macrophages already digest other synthetic particels without me knowing? 6. Can the nanoparticles cross the "blood-brain-border"? Sorry for my English sometimes. I am german. 😅 Could you please answer these questions? It seems to me like the most promising vaccine til now.
I have a few questions! Thank you for this presentation it was great! For someone who has sickle cell trait is this vax a good fight due to the Saponin and hemoglobin reaction? Also I thought the original Covid was basically gone? Does it even make Sense to get it since it was design for the original and not the variants that keep emerging?
Thank you for this explanation. Sounds like a vaccine I would take. Still have a certain hesitancy about a new vaccine, or need for one, but am more comfortable with this. How could we find out more about it's release date in US?
Thank you for taking the time to make an informative video about how the novavax technology works. My question for anyone that might know, is that with the mRNA vaccines available, one particular concern is that our RNA is programmed for coding a spike protein that has potentially cytotoxic effects to various tissues within our bodies. This can lead to nerve damage, myocarditis and other potentially dangerous issues. Does the same risk for the protein based novavax still exist? Is there more potential for an mRNA vaccine to cause production of a spike protein in an area of our bodies where eliciting a cytotoxic effect is more dangerous?
My understanding is that the Saponin adjuvant acts to draw Antigen Presenting Cells (APCs) to the injection site so that they then gobble up the antigen (spike protein) so I'm thinking that maybe it won't be as far reaching in the body....however, I have the same concerns that you have about spike protein eliciting cell growth signalling in pulmonary vascular endothelium. However, overall I might be happy taking the Novavax as the amount of antigen overall is less anyway. Please don't just believe me..this is only my current understanding. I might be wrong!?
@@Secret-sw8ih Thanks so much for the reply. Do you know where more reliable information about this topic is available? Im very curious about NovaVax and would love to learn more about it. Specifically topics that cover concerns like this one versus the mRNA version.

Curious, did you forget to mention the dendritic cell? Quite Confused if the macrophage is the one that puts the protein on the outside of itself or if the dendritic cell does? Thanks :) all the best
What is the likely possibly of the covid spike protines sheering off of the artificial structure they are attached to in the novavax? I have seen in other videos that the spike protines themselves are cytotoxic and could be causing the server side effects associated with the mRNA vaccines. It's been postulated that the spike protines aren't anchoring to the cells that are producing the spike protines in mRNA vaccines.
Thank you so much for explaining Novavax. I have been anti vac. So scared of it. But.....if I'm forced to get one (at work).....MAYBE I might consider this one. Also my college age son might have to get it to continue to go to college, which makes me insanely mad. So...maybe this would be an option.
Hey @Traci, I'll share my thinking - see if this makes sense for you.. For me, I have never before hesitated to get a tried and tested vaccine. This is the same format of those that I have always gotten. I have never had a bad reaction to one of those vaccines, and it is not (as mRNA does) teaching my body to make something bad without an off switch. Novavax's format leaves me with none of the objections I have with mRNA's newness, rushed development, and unknown long term effects. I am not a doctor though, and suggest you speak to your trusted medical professional about your personal situation to see if this is right for you. While I won't rush to get Novavax because I have just recovered from COVID, this one, for me, is a viable option if I need to.
@@FactsMatter thanks for the info! Still not vaxxed. Doctor recommends it but still unsure. And I just got over covid too. Doing fine. Hope you are as well! Blessings!!😀
Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge freely. I do have a question that hopefully you can answer. What are the nanoparticles comprised of?
Good question. The full ingredients have not been published yet. Nebraska Medical Center says its mostly fats (cholesterol and phospholipids). www.nebraskamed.com/COVID/moths-and-tree-bark-how-the-novavax-vaccine-works
The efficacy for the variant strain is actually reported as higher than 60%. I watched an interview on Australian TV in June with John Trivvino the Chief Commercial Officer of Novavax who stated they found its overall efficacy was 90% with the original strain but even better was over 93% for the variant strain. 83% of their trial partcipants had the variant strain.
Novavax is experiencing production delays due to supply chain issues. See here: www.news.com.au/technology/innovation/novavax-covid19-vaccine-supplies-delayed/news-story/d9829a5d1476b1f65399de590fbe7b7b
OK, that is a VACCINE alright! And if the speaker explained it perfectly, it is the way a vaccine should be working. Now how many years for the accreditation of the vaccine?
The research and trails on Novavax are much more valid. The data is more reliably collected, and the vaccine is brilliant in how it was produced. I really love the studies I have seen.
I assume like the other Cov vaccines, it's based on Alpha strain protein, so (relative) efficacy figure is based on that strain only and it will have poor efficacy against other variants where the protein has changed. Given that the spike protein itself is a pathogen, it would be interesting to know how much of those are in a dose and what the risks are for the proteins leaving the deltoid muscle. As you know there were claims with the mRNA/Vector vaccines they would limit the spike protein creation mainly to the deltoid and then it turned out to be wrong.
Side effects of Novavax include gravitating to lightbulbs and screen doors especially in the summer and at night. One may or may not have a need to pollinate a plant or two. lol
I don’t think so. Most people who have mRNA vaccines make spike proteins for 5-19 days then taper off. While the spike proteins are being made they are in tissue and blood stream, so unless you had an accidentally blood transfusion from an mRNA vaccine person in the 20 days following vaccination then no.
So, it sounds great, except when the very end of the video threw in the part about dropping in efficacy against new variants. That doesn't sound ideal against Delta and whatever else is to come. What's the deal there?
Good question. Delta was not the prevalent variant when the trial ended, so there's no delta cases reported. I do want to mention that vaccination is keeping the majority of people out of the hospital. Efficacy means the vaccine prevented even mild symptoms, so if you look up how many people who are vaccinated stay out the hospital the numbers are higher all around.
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 do you recomment taking novavax for a person who has alpha thalaseemia with very low hemoglobin count as low as 7 counts?

I was vaccine hesitant prior to Covid, though I did get them in the military...after Covid, I am completely vac resistant, I will never take another one for any reason, including this one.
Good question. There’s no PEG in this vaccine. Although all I could find is that the nanoparticles are lipids (AKA fats). The company might be keeping the exact type of nanoparticles a company secret. The safety profile of the vaccine is very good with less side effects than the mRNA or viral vector based vaccine. www.nebraskamed.com/COVID/moths-and-tree-bark-how-the-novavax-vaccine-works
@@Manny4Realty I’ve been thinking about that exact question and here’s what I think. To make an inactivated vaccine you would need to grow up a giant amount of COVID-19 virus which is super dangerous. You would need football fields worth of chicken eggs like researches do for the inactivated influenza vaccine. Attenuating the virus takes a long time and COVID-19 has so many virulence factors that it would be tough and time consuming to attenuate.
@@Manny4Realty if I understand you correctly, you are asking if an attenuated or inactivated vaccine would have less side effects. I think it’s really unclear right now if the side effects from the mRNA vaccines and viral vector vaccines are due to the immune activation or the makeup of the vaccine. Honestly any type of vaccine given in quick succession like 3-4 weeks will cause tons of immune activation which equals fever, sore muscles etc. Right now I would say two inactivated vaccines in a row would cause as many side effects but potentially less blot clotting issues.
@@SH31506 Ah this question cannot be answered in humans right now. I'll tell you why. No one has checked. It requires people to have a lumbar puncture. None of the vaccine trials have included lumbar puncture, so I cannot say. Mice have much leakier BBB than humans, so mouse BBB studies often to do not replicate human physiology well. I would guess that Novavax itself does not cross the BBB. Honestly I don't think any of the vaccines cross the BBB. If you have a paper I would be interested to read it. However, in all cases some of the anti-bodies against COVID-19 will likely cross the BBB, as most antibodies in your blood stream can.
Thank you for a clear, logical explanation. One question remains; does this vaccine allow the COVID "spikes" to pass the blood-brain barrier the way the other vaccines do? Many of the adverse reactions stem from spikes residing in the veins of the brain. Reports indicate that blood clots occur in some people, leading to serious neurological impairment/death. Thanks for you videos.
I think so since the spike protein is injected into the muscle and goes everywhere from there and since the spike protein is the part of the virus that is actually causing the desease, I doubt that this is healthy and has basically the same side effects/risks as the other vaccines.
Thank you! There isn't any biodistribution data available on Novavax yet. but I did just read a similar lipid nanoparticle biodistribution paper recently. It demonstrated that 83% of the particles stay in the muscle and the rest circulate in the blood stream and are cleared in the liver and spleen 48 hours later. No movement into the brain. I have not seen any published data demonstrating either the nano or the spike protein entering the brain. I would be interested if you knew of any papers. I have some trouble with the spike protein is in the brain or any particular organ because it would mean that someone who recently received the vaccine went into the hospital and got a biopsy on their liver or had a lumbar puncture. If that data is out there I would be very interested to see it. www.nature.com/articles/s41392-021-00634-z

He maintains the "manufactured spikes" are only part of the COVID virus, and thus are much smaller. I would appreciate your take on this as your explanatory style is very concise and clear.

I was a case study participant for novavax . In Charlotte N.C. FOR Atrium health stride program. i did it January -may. I still keep up with daily temps for a ayear till next time i see them next year. They are looking for kids 12 and older for case study when i last left program. It was great.no side effects except itching at site .
Thanks for the video. However, no one seems to explain, how do they collect spike proteins? How do they assemble spike proteins onto nano particles? How do they know there are not free floating spike proteins left in the mix?
I don’t know how they assemble the complexes, but I do know from experience that there are lots of possible methods for separating large complexes away from single proteins.
Hi Doctor. I found your video very informative. However I was unable to locate your name. I'm trying my best to do objective research to inform my decision on whether or not to consider a vaccine and its hard to reference a source as valid if you cant verify the person's name or their professional accreditation. May I ask your name, if you have a website and where we can verify your medical/scientific background? I want to use this video as a source but don't feel I can do so if I dont even know the creators name or place of practice. Many thanks.
Thank you for this video it was extremely informative. I'm anxiously waiting for Health Canada to approve this one. It appears the facility is complete in Montreal, the government has procured up to 76 million doses, so let's get this done. More people will be willing to take this one which will be win win. Fingers crossed this will be available by the end of the year.
Health Canada gave Novavax full approval today, February 17, 2022. Doses should start being received (from India) in March. Montreal facility not yet ready even for Health Canada inspection, let alone to start producing.
Good point! Yes, soap does seem like a better choice. You are correct DTP (or Tdap) is an inactivated bacteria, so no genetic manipulations or nanoparticles. MMR is live attenuated virus, so it's one of the vaccines that might actually give your kiddo a fever, but not a full blown cold.
@@NaneeH63 Tdap is also a vaccine against toxins. So it is a protein based vaccine similar to Novavax, but the immune activator or adjuvant is Alum. Have you had adverse vaccine reactions before?
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 I had an antitetanus i jection before and had an allergic reaction I passed out..went back to hospital and I don’t know what the injected me for the reaction.

That’s very scary and I understand why you wouldn’t want to have that happen again. Talk it over with your doctor, and look at the ingredients in the tetanus vaccine. Maybe you are allergic to Alum or egg?!
Update on Novavax approval: Novavax has applied for approval in India, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Reuters says that Novavax will apply for approval in the UK, Canada, and Australia this month. Novavax has hit a manufacturing issue in the US. This is a quote from Science Magazine:
“The U.S. government has recently instructed [us] to prioritize alignment” with FDA’s methods for ensuring consistency in manufacturing, the company wrote in a quarterly report filed yesterday. The government “further indicated that [it] will not fund additional US manufacturing” until the firm has done so.
Im from the US. How can I get this vaccine???
Hi, if Novavax is not as effective on variants of Covid, does that mean that it will be completely ineffective against the varient or does it just mean that you may still catch the variant, but due to the novavax vaccine, may not develop the very severe symptoms?
Maybe you can change the name to Ppfizer II...wink wink.
Thank you for this information.
@@realtuffdude no you can’t because it’s not mRNA
The FDA has stated it will send NOVAVAX overseas, because we have plenty of Pfizer, Moderna and J&J. If you want NOVAVAX cobtact your congressional representatives and the FDA, tell them keep NOVAVAX here, and send the others vaccines overseas.
Thank you for commenting this! I’m definitely wanting to get this vaccine, so I’ll be doing what you suggested.
I will do that!
Such garbage. Why is our country pushing Pfizer and Moderna? Anyone seen where Fauci’s hands are lately? Bet he owns stocks with Gates in one of the two. Sick of the constant ditching of the J&J and meanwhile the MRNA v are killing children
Can you show the link ?
Good idea?
So the approval of "more traditional" is delayed forever (at least in the UK and Europe) but mRNA gets emergency approval. Says it all...
Motivations can come from many reasons. Profit of course, but don't underestimate the resistance of bureaucracies who've become establishments; their resistance to change. Finally, there are the range of dastardly conspiracy theory reasons as well, if one was actually in play.
It’s because Moderna and BioNTech have been working on customizes cancer vaccines for many years, and by 2019 Moderna had the ability to manufacture 2,000 different custom vaccines per month. Because they spent years developing this technology before the pandemic even started they were able to make their vaccines within a week of receiving the RNA sequence for the spike proteins and begin testing it in animals immediately. They were then able to get permission from the FDA to conduct and complete human safety trials before July 2020 so they could start the phase 3 efficacy trials.
After that they had to wait for about 100 of their study participants to get sick with Covid so they could submit the preliminary trial data to the FDA for approval for emergency use.
All these steps have taken longer for Novavax because what they are doing takes longer right now. They don’t have the ability to manufacture 2,000 custom vaccines per month. They have never even tried to do that.

This one is still a NO. The same thing with other covid vaccines, futile.
Covid is non-immunable disease. Vaccines mimic the effects of real virus to our immune system. If the real virus can't give immunity to people, neither will the vaccine.
2 reasons showing it's non-immunable
1. people get re-infected, and as early as 1.5 to 2 months
2. Some hospitalized in their first infection, again hospitalized on their next.
A Las Vegas man was hospitalized on his 2nd infection.
A repeat of symptoms during next infection. No natural immunity equals no artificial immunity.
@@rosea1021

@@robtheaveragewhiteamerican4403 Yup, & 1. avoid secondary infection if you are sick with one, not only with covid, multiple infections of other kinds are also bad & can overwhelm our immune system.
2. If you have no underlying conditions, maintain a healthy lifestyle, or if you have one already, manage it well with lifestyle changes or meds.
@@robtheaveragewhiteamerican4403 Hey! This came out in the last couple of days:
www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2021/s0806-vaccination-protection.html
It basically says that unvaccinated people who have previously recovered from covid are more likely to be reinfected than people who have recovered and are vaccinated.
It has also been shown in multiple studies that people who are vaccinated are much less likely to get severely sick and die. 98% of deaths in the US in the past month have been unvaccinated people. If you believe immune system was given to you by God, why wouldn't he want you to take something that allows your immune system to be primed for something that could kill you?
Hope this science helps!

manufacturing complexity is what stopping the company from applying FDA approval. they can not scale it as fast at the MRNA and adenovirus based vaccines
MARK E they can just stuff it then. If the tyrants want me shot up-they better get me this one. Then I will spit in their face. Tyranny. This is what we have now. Stand up-resist.
I would rather take a traditional vaccine too. I read the market and it’s all about investors. Novavax does not seem to get the spot light because it does not fit in with the MRNA narrative. MRNA started in early 90’s. Several major pharmaceutical companies have tried this technology and abandoned the idea because they struggled to get MRNA into cells without triggering nasty side effects. So for MRNA companies, no better time to test it with use of government funds!!

Thank you. This old fashioned vaccine style is the only one I trust.
It's not old fashioned it's still using spike proteins. That bind to receptor cells and produce immune response to invader. Don't be fooled thinking this is an od school type virus so therfor safer and people won't have any side effects.
@@roddymac998, There’s no mRNA or viral vectors entering our cells though. Our immune system destroys those cells that are infected by the lipid nano particles or viral vectors in the other vaccines. I don’t want my immune system to destroy my cells. I like to keep my cells.
But what concerns me is where these Novavax spike proteins go. They’re sticking a needle in your arm and injecting that stuff. That means they’re poking needles through cells and who knows where they’re injected the stuff. Does it go into a muscle cell and explode it? Is the needle as thick as 10 or 100 muscle cells? Is it cutting right through them? Does the stuff migrate between epithelial cells in our capillaries and travel to other places in our body?
The lipo particles and viral vectors are likely absorbed immediately by cells adjacent to the injection site because that’s what they want to do. Do these spike proteins attach to the ACE2 receptors of local cells so they are unable to migrate elsewhere?
@@terjeoseberg990 well no not according to Dr Malone they do not stay in injection site and that is the problem. all the swelling and clots will be caused by the migrating from the injection site. Dr Malone says himself he alerted CDC to this fact and it's not been tested enough for human consumption. They ignored him and passed it anyway. Too much investment not too if expect.
@@roddymac998 How much does aspirating the needle upon injection reduce potential migration of spike proteins (and anything else) away from the injection site? Is Novavax meant to be a 1 or 2 shot protocol?
@@roddymac998 Molone was referring to the mRNA vaccines - I am think it is unknown if the Novavax proteins travel out of the muscle in the arm.

Having had Covid I would still want to know the effectiveness of this vs my current natural immunity level. I still think natural immunity last longer. I don't know though because no one is focusing on that.
I’m on my cell phone, but there’s a few published research papers on this subject. I also wish there was more data here. It seems like two vaccines makes more antibodies and memory B cells than getting COVID once, but a year out some people who have had COVID or vaccines have similar levels of protection.

As far as I am concerned this is very different from patient to patient. It seems to depend on how heavy your symptoms were, your age, weight and overall health.
Young healthy adults usually have high immunity even months after an infection or vaccine. Older less healthy people usually tend to less immunity the more time goes by. However you cant determain the immunity only by an anti body test because the infection also triggers your so called T-cells really heavily. So even without any anti bodies or very few anti bodies in your blood you still could have high immunity. So how immune someone is not only depends on ones vaccine and/or severeness of infection but also on ones overall health/age.
So the very clear answer to your question is (based on my research):
It depends... A lot...
@@michaelflamingsword3131 Yeah, I have been traveling too recently and to my surprise didnt get infected. Honestly its kinda hard to get a feel of how far spread and how contagious this virus is in the real world despite all the numbers we have.

It depends on when the FDA approves it. It seems like places like Canada and Japan are taking steps to get Novavax in a few months, but it’s unclear when we will get it in the States. It might be worth contacting your congressperson and showing your support.
Thanks!This was a very informative video for a novice like myself. I wonder if you could also explain how natural immunity works in the body?
This is the best explanation of how a well designed (!) vaccine works. Thank you so much! Watching your video was a pleasure and very valuable

Waiting for this vaccine as recommended by my doctor from singapore as I have allergic reactions to medications
Very best of luck! I hope you do not have an allergic reaction.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Canada receives Novavax this year
🙏🙏🙏
The facility should be complete now. Fingers crossed .
After reading a lot about this Vaccine, this is the one I want to take… I am not comfortable taking Pfizer or AZ which are what on offer currently in the UK.. i hope this gets approved soon in the UK.
You should take what ever you can get. If you want the best one the Pfizer has the best results. But all of them will stop you from dying from covid and reduce the spread to others.
Well said.
Novovax is another option if you want old style vaccines. It should be in the UK soon...its already been pre ordered by the govt.
The problem with Pfizer and Astrazeneca jab is that one of the side effects of the jab is death.
It’s rare, but I understand that people should get to choose what works for them.
What a good job you have done !! Such clarity , I really enjoy your explanation, I seldom am interested in technical terms but you make it so easy and so fun 🤩
Glad it was helpful!

Hope we will get Novavax in Australia!
@@ritabarber9286 Hunt did an interview around 14/09 and said it looks like Nov/Dec before Novavax gets here - just hope and pray they let it be given as the first jab and not restricted to being a booster. If it's booster only, the conspiracy theories will EXPLODE along with the anger in the population!!
I think your video finally answered one of my questions, but I'm going to ask you anyway, if you don't mind please. Do our antibodies completely eradicate the payload of spike proteins that are injected into us? I would assume that since there is no mRNA/reverse transcriptase (?) being used, that there is no constant reproduction of the spike protein in your body? I apologize, my college genetics are rusty.
I love your translation into layman's terms. You're very gifted to be able to translate immunology into a form that's easier to understand.

My God, what a terrific video...Thank You!!
Thank you kindly!
Yes, I am waiting for this Novavax being approved in Australia.
Not an expert... 11:11 = the key to the problem and why current Cov19 "vaccines" don't work the way we expect. mRNA-based vaccines and Novavax are only presenting one component of the Cov19 virus to the immune system. So without knowledge of the remainder of the virus, the immune system can't fight Cov19, it can only fight the spike protein. So the hope is that one's immune system will sufficiently destroy all spikes of the invading virus and the remainder won't be able to make it into the cells to replicate. It isn't surprising that vaccinated people still get Cov19. I maintain that only a "traditional" (live-attenuated or inactivated) vaccine will do the best job at combating Cov19. For some reason, we don't hear much about any being developed. Valneva is the only one I know of.
Clear and effective explanation on this new topic. Thank you tremendously for your time and talent.
Thank you for your kind words.
This was so cool. Thank you. I have a question about what you mentioned in your video's end. Courtesy the ever evolving variants, the protein structure of the virus has changed massively. Since the everything that vaccines produce (antibodies, b cells, t cells) are courtesy the spike protein and since that spike protein itself has changed, how do these vaccines are being said to be effective in still protecting against severe disease & hospitalizations?
I meant to comment you have a talent for simplifying complicated subject matter.
Einstein once said, 'if you can't explain something simply you don't completely understand it'
Oh that's one of my absolute favorite quotes!
Good morning all!
I am actually a participant in the US-Mexico portion of the NOVAVAX study!
Reports came out today they are applying for FULL FDA approval this month (Sept 2021).
Participants selected were more varied in age, skin color/ethnic background, and with more co-morbidities. This was done to more accurately mimic the normal population. There were approximately 30,000 of us in the US/Mexico portions of the trial. And we are actually being followed for 2 years to monitor for any issues.
Thank you so much for sharing!
Will it be available in Mexico? US residents may have to go there to get it.
My only concern is injecting spike proteins into the body. The spike seems to the problem.....
Great video. Clean pictures and hand writing. Best explanation ever. 🔥 Thank You
Thank you for this information. I've been researching all day and this is extremely helpful!
Glad to help!
I am waiting for this one. I hope it comes out in US soon.
I couldn’t find a firm date online. Some websites said September and others more like November.
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 Thank you for the information. Do you know if this one is less likely to raise blood pressure? I have heard the other ones can drastically raise blood pressure.
@@beatlesrutles I looked into the clinical trial data for Novavax, and they excluded people with high blood pressure (hypertension). So I did not find any data of increased blood pressure. The other vaccines like Pfizer's mRNA vaccine only raised blood pressure in 5% of the people receiving it for approximately 5 days. www.ejinme.com/article/S0953-6205(21)00212-0/fulltext#:~:text=Overall%2C%206%20subjects%20(5.3%25),five%20days%20before%20the%20vaccine.
The increase in blood pressure should be monitored carefully. However, I want to mention that it is most likely due to the immune activation. Taking any vaccine twice within a month will cause side effects. I have a video explaining why those side effects happen. Let me know if you have any other questions.
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 That is a worry. If US getting it in Sept/Nov. The rest of the world will be next year. Another variant will be out by that time and Novavax will be out of date.
It’s possible that Novavax efficacy might diminish over time faster than the mRNA vaccines, but the way efficacy was reported usually means people had zero symptoms to mild symptoms of COVID. So the alpha variant Novavax prevented 93% of people from having even mild symptoms and prevented 55% of people with beta variant from mild symptoms. As far as I know though, it kept 100% of people out of the hospital. If COVID keeps mutating then Novavax could still help keep people out of the hospital and keep our doctors and nurses from being overwhelmed.
Greetings from Oz 🇦🇺 Thank you for the explanation mate, you are obviously a very intelligent, well educated lady. Much appreciated.
Thanks for the video. Do you think that the Novavax vaccine could be more safe than the other types of covid vaccines?
It had less side effects than the mRNA and viral vector vaccines. It is also the least amount of spike protein because your cells do not turn into spike protein factories. Novavax utilizes the moth cells for the spike replication.
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 Thanks for the reply. Another thing the GSK/Sanofi covid vaccine may soon be approved. Do you believe that this vaccine may be safer than the mRNA vaccines?
@@JaneDoe-lr1pr what kind of vaccines is that?
Cool video, you have good drawing skills. 😊
But I have some additional questions:
1. Can the nanoparticles enter the nucleus of my cells, where my dna is? Why or why not?
2. Can the vaccine get inside my (other) body cells? (Not the macrophages.) Why or why not?
3. How big are the nanoparticles and why?
4. Is this vaccine effective against the omicron variant?
5. Can my macrophages digest these synthetic particles? Do my macrophages already digest other synthetic particels without me knowing?
6. Can the nanoparticles cross the "blood-brain-border"?

Thanks!
Brilliant video. I'm from the UK and I'm reluctant to get the Oxford and Phizar jabs this sounds like a good jab for me
Thank you for your kind words. I hope you get it. Things work out best when people have a choice.
Thank you for taking the time to make an informative video about how the novavax technology works. My question for anyone that might know, is that with the mRNA vaccines available, one particular concern is that our RNA is programmed for coding a spike protein that has potentially cytotoxic effects to various tissues within our bodies. This can lead to nerve damage, myocarditis and other potentially dangerous issues. Does the same risk for the protein based novavax still exist? Is there more potential for an mRNA vaccine to cause production of a spike protein in an area of our bodies where eliciting a cytotoxic effect is more dangerous?
My understanding is that the Saponin adjuvant acts to draw Antigen Presenting Cells (APCs) to the injection site so that they then gobble up the antigen (spike protein) so I'm thinking that maybe it won't be as far reaching in the body....however, I have the same concerns that you have about spike protein eliciting cell growth signalling in pulmonary vascular endothelium. However, overall I might be happy taking the Novavax as the amount of antigen overall is less anyway. Please don't just believe me..this is only my current understanding. I might be wrong!?
@@Secret-sw8ih Thanks so much for the reply. Do you know where more reliable information about this topic is available? Im very curious about NovaVax and would love to learn more about it. Specifically topics that cover concerns like this one versus the mRNA version.

That’s so strange. I saw your original comment but did not see any links associated with it. Maybe you could just give me the name of the websites you use?
Curious, did you forget to mention the dendritic cell? Quite Confused if the macrophage is the one that puts the protein on the outside of itself or if the dendritic cell does? Thanks :) all the best
Or can both the macrophage and the dendritic cells present the protein ? Many thanks
You are correct. Both the dendritic cell and macrophages can present the spike protein to T cells. In fact, B cells can present to T cells too.
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 Beautiful, Thanks heaps and all the best :D
What is the likely possibly of the covid spike protines sheering off of the artificial structure they are attached to in the novavax? I have seen in other videos that the spike protines themselves are cytotoxic and could be causing the server side effects associated with the mRNA vaccines. It's been postulated that the spike protines aren't anchoring to the cells that are producing the spike protines in mRNA vaccines.
It's widely accepted that vaccines are the safest and most efficient way to stop viruses
Thank you so much for explaining Novavax. I have been anti vac. So scared of it. But.....if I'm forced to get one (at work).....MAYBE I might consider this one. Also my college age son might have to get it to continue to go to college, which makes me insanely mad. So...maybe this would be an option.
Hey @Traci, I'll share my thinking - see if this makes sense for you.. For me, I have never before hesitated to get a tried and tested vaccine. This is the same format of those that I have always gotten. I have never had a bad reaction to one of those vaccines, and it is not (as mRNA does) teaching my body to make something bad without an off switch. Novavax's format leaves me with none of the objections I have with mRNA's newness, rushed development, and unknown long term effects. I am not a doctor though, and suggest you speak to your trusted medical professional about your personal situation to see if this is right for you. While I won't rush to get Novavax because I have just recovered from COVID, this one, for me, is a viable option if I need to.
@@FactsMatter thanks for the info! Still not vaxxed. Doctor recommends it but still unsure. And I just got over covid too. Doing fine. Hope you are as well! Blessings!!😀

Glad it was helpful!
If all the vaccines were equally available to you, which would you choose? Thank you!
Yes I would like to know which vaccine you would choose too
The efficacy for the variant strain is actually reported as higher than 60%.
I watched an interview on Australian TV in June with John Trivvino the Chief Commercial Officer of Novavax who stated they found its overall efficacy was 90% with the original strain but even better was over 93% for the variant strain. 83% of their trial partcipants had the variant strain.
Thanks for the information!
What is the current timeline for Novavax being cleared and released for usage in the USA and/or elsewhere?
Great handle. I don't have any idea about the US, since it's up to the FDA now. Other countries like Canada and Japan might have access in November.
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 Cheers. Well perhaps the FDA will consider it in light of those many vaccine hesitant thus far, and before winter.
Novavax is experiencing production delays due to supply chain issues. See here: www.news.com.au/technology/innovation/novavax-covid19-vaccine-supplies-delayed/news-story/d9829a5d1476b1f65399de590fbe7b7b
@@BestResuMS Eeeeek, ok thanks. We'll see how that shakes out both in Australia and the US then.
Vaccination is now mandatory at my work. I have only until end of September.
As an immunologist, you should know that natural immune system is the best in this case.
It’s approved in Australia and I will use this video to explain to my patients, 🙏
Just one question has that flog bill gates and his cronies have anything to do with this vaccine
OK, that is a VACCINE alright! And if the speaker explained it perfectly, it is the way a vaccine should be working. Now how many years for the accreditation of the vaccine?
The research and trails on Novavax are much more valid. The data is more reliably collected, and the vaccine is brilliant in how it was produced. I really love the studies I have seen.
I assume like the other Cov vaccines, it's based on Alpha strain protein, so (relative) efficacy figure is based on that strain only and it will have poor efficacy against other variants where the protein has changed. Given that the spike protein itself is a pathogen, it would be interesting to know how much of those are in a dose and what the risks are for the proteins leaving the deltoid muscle. As you know there were claims with the mRNA/Vector vaccines they would limit the spike protein creation mainly to the deltoid and then it turned out to be wrong.
I want this vaccine too. Seems much safer.
No way. The mRNA isn't the problem. It's the spike protein and liquid nanoparticles that you want to keep out of your body.

Side effects of Novavax include gravitating to lightbulbs and screen doors especially in the summer and at night. One may or may not have a need to pollinate a plant or two. lol

I am waiting for this vaccine in Australia - as our government ordered this last year. Hurry up, please Novavax. Thank you for the great explanation
Same here - never hear much about it here in Oz
Thank you kindly!
I don’t think so. Most people who have mRNA vaccines make spike proteins for 5-19 days then taper off. While the spike proteins are being made they are in tissue and blood stream, so unless you had an accidentally blood transfusion from an mRNA vaccine person in the 20 days following vaccination then no.
I also want this vaccine. I’m in Australia too. I did not realize that we have ordered it

So, it sounds great, except when the very end of the video threw in the part about dropping in efficacy against new variants. That doesn't sound ideal against Delta and whatever else is to come. What's the deal there?
Good question. Delta was not the prevalent variant when the trial ended, so there's no delta cases reported. I do want to mention that vaccination is keeping the majority of people out of the hospital. Efficacy means the vaccine prevented even mild symptoms, so if you look up how many people who are vaccinated stay out the hospital the numbers are higher all around.
@@friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192 do you recomment taking novavax for a person who has alpha thalaseemia with very low hemoglobin count as low as 7 counts? I just had my iron infusion and will be having another blood test when the iron settles down.

I’m concerned about that nanoparticles in the middle, is it safe? Do you know if it has no PEG which has been used in Pfizer??
Good question. There’s no PEG in this vaccine. Although all I could find is that the nanoparticles are lipids (AKA fats). The company might be keeping the exact type of nanoparticles a company secret. The safety profile of the vaccine is very good with less side effects than the mRNA or viral vector based vaccine. www.nebraskamed.com/COVID/moths-and-tree-bark-how-the-novavax-vaccine-works
@@Manny4Realty I’ve been thinking about that exact question and here’s what I think. To make an inactivated vaccine you would need to grow up a giant amount of COVID-19 virus which is super dangerous. You would need football fields worth of chicken eggs like researches do for the inactivated influenza vaccine. Attenuating the virus takes a long time and COVID-19 has so many virulence factors that it would be tough and time consuming to attenuate.
@@Manny4Realty if I understand you correctly, you are asking if an attenuated or inactivated vaccine would have less side effects. I think it’s really unclear right now if the side effects from the mRNA vaccines and viral vector vaccines are due to the immune activation or the makeup of the vaccine. Honestly any type of vaccine given in quick succession like 3-4 weeks will cause tons of immune activation which equals fever, sore muscles etc. Right now I would say two inactivated vaccines in a row would cause as many side effects but potentially less blot clotting issues.
I have one more question, does novavax go through BBB like others too??
@@SH31506 Ah this question cannot be answered in humans right now. I'll tell you why. No one has checked. It requires people to have a lumbar puncture. None of the vaccine trials have included lumbar puncture, so I cannot say. Mice have much leakier BBB than humans, so mouse BBB studies often to do not replicate human physiology well. I would guess that Novavax itself does not cross the BBB. Honestly I don't think any of the vaccines cross the BBB. If you have a paper I would be interested to read it. However, in all cases some of the anti-bodies against COVID-19 will likely cross the BBB, as most antibodies in your blood stream can.
Thank you for a clear, logical explanation. One question remains; does this vaccine allow the COVID "spikes" to pass the blood-brain barrier the way the other vaccines do? Many of the adverse reactions stem from spikes residing in the veins of the brain. Reports indicate that blood clots occur in some people, leading to serious neurological impairment/death. Thanks for you videos.
I think so since the spike protein is injected into the muscle and goes everywhere from there and since the spike protein is the part of the virus that is actually causing the desease, I doubt that this is healthy and has basically the same side effects/risks as the other vaccines.
Thank you! There isn't any biodistribution data available on Novavax yet. but I did just read a similar lipid nanoparticle biodistribution paper recently. It demonstrated that 83% of the particles stay in the muscle and the rest circulate in the blood stream and are cleared in the liver and spleen 48 hours later. No movement into the brain. I have not seen any published data demonstrating either the nano or the spike protein entering the brain. I would be interested if you knew of any papers. I have some trouble with the spike protein is in the brain or any particular organ because it would mean that someone who recently received the vaccine went into the hospital and got a biopsy on their liver or had a lumbar puncture. If that data is out there I would be very interested to see it. www.nature.com/articles/s41392-021-00634-z

Thanks for the video. However, no one seems to explain, how do they collect spike proteins? How do they assemble spike proteins onto nano particles? How do they know there are not free floating spike proteins left in the mix?
I don’t know how they assemble the complexes, but I do know from experience that there are lots of possible methods for separating large complexes away from single proteins.
Hi Doctor. I found your video very informative. However I was unable to locate your name. I'm trying my best to do objective research to inform my decision on whether or not to consider a vaccine and its hard to reference a source as valid if you cant verify the person's name or their professional accreditation. May I ask your name, if you have a website and where we can verify your medical/scientific background? I want to use this video as a source but don't feel I can do so if I dont even know the creators name or place of practice. Many thanks.
Thank you for this video it was extremely informative. I'm anxiously waiting for Health Canada to approve this one. It appears the facility is complete in Montreal, the government has procured up to 76 million doses, so let's get this done. More people will be willing to take this one which will be win win. Fingers crossed this will be available by the end of the year.
Health Canada gave Novavax full approval today, February 17, 2022. Doses should start being received (from India) in March. Montreal facility not yet ready even for Health Canada inspection, let alone to start producing.
But not like the traditional DTP or MMR vaccines.
Still, I am happier with soap than with aluminum or mercury.
Good point! Yes, soap does seem like a better choice. You are correct DTP (or Tdap) is an inactivated bacteria, so no genetic manipulations or nanoparticles. MMR is live attenuated virus, so it's one of the vaccines that might actually give your kiddo a fever, but not a full blown cold.
