Early results look good for ‘universal’ flu vaccine that could stop the next pandemic

In those names of flu, “H” stands for hemagglutinin, and it’s the protein the virus uses to stick to the outside of a cell. “N” is kind of the opposite. It’s the protein neuraminidase that the virus uses to escape from a cell after reproducing. If you think of human cells as having lots of entry and exit doors, each one of which has a different lock, H and N are the keys the virus is carrying to get in and get out.

If two viruses that are are coded H5N1 and H5N3, they’re both carrying the same (or similar) version of hemagglutinin, but they’re carrying quite different versions of neuraminidase. Still, if someone was recently infected by the first virus, they’d have pretty good protection against the second. However, if something like H3N2 rolled up, neither of the defenses the body has cranked up against H5N1 would hold.

Each year, researchers look at the cases of flu they are seeing, with an eye toward those which haven’t been around in awhile, and try to produce a vaccine that hits the most likely varieties. They get especially worried when they see a virus in animals carrying a protein pair that hasn’t run around in humans for decades.

That’s what makes this new vaccine strategy exciting.

Current influenza vaccines, composed of four influenza viral antigens, provide little protection beyond the viral strains targeted by the vaccines. Universal influenza vaccines that can protect against all 20 lineages could help to prevent the next pandemic. Designing and manufacturing a vaccine that can provide such broad protection has been challenging, but the demonstration of the feasibility of mRNA–lipid nanoparticle COVID-19 vaccines offers a possible strategy.

If it seems like that vaccine design includes just about every buzzword for hot new vaccine technologies, you’re right. The mRNA COVID-19 vaccines from BioNTech and Moderna are the fist such to be authorized for use in humans. But now that the door is open, there’s tremendous potential in this technology, including a superior flu vaccine.

The vaccine produced by by the Penn team targets all 18 known versions of hemagglutinin.  So even if something like the current flu being passed around among bird species makes the leap to humans tomorrow, we would already have a vaccine that was substantially effective. 

This wouldn’t mean an end to annual flu shots, and those shots would continue to focus on the most likely varieties to be seen in a season. However, they could also sharply reduce the chance of serious illness from any flu.

There are still several steps remaining to show that this vaccine is safe and effective for humans. Among other things, there are concerns that getting enough vaccine to generate a response to all 18 versions of “H” may turn out to require too large a dose, leading to unpleasant reactions. (Which is exactly why it’s difficult to make a universal COVID-19 shot that addresses all known variants.)

But since the technologies involved in this vaccine have already been tested against COVID-19, expect this vaccine to move forward without running into worries about the use of mRNA or lipid capsules. It won’t be a part of any vaccine you use this year. But next year? Maybe.

Early voting begins in some Georgia counties as Raphael Warnock and Herschel Walker sprint to December 6 runoff



CNN
 — 

A week-long early voting period begins Saturday in some Georgia counties as Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock and Republican challenger Herschel Walker enter a week-and-a-half, post-Thanksgiving sprint to their December 6 runoff election.

Unlike the 2021 runoffs, control of the Senate is not on the line, with Democrats having won 50 seats already and Vice President Kamala Harris giving the party a tie-breaking vote.

However, the stakes remain high: A Warnock victory would give Democrats the majority outright, rather than requiring the power-sharing agreement that is now in place. Democrats would have the majority on committees, allowing them to advance President Joe Biden’s nominees more easily.

Georgia’s Supreme Court delivered Warnock a victory Wednesday, allowing counties to offer early voting on Saturday. Democrats said they expected as many as 22 counties to do so – some in heavily populated areas around Atlanta, including DeKalb and Fulton, as well as Chatham County, home of Savannah.

That ruling followed a legal battle triggered by Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s interpretation of the state’s 2021 voting law. He said the new law restricted weekend voting immediately after holidays.

That 2021 law cut in half the timeline for runoff elections, to four weeks, and limited the early voting window to a minimum of five days rather than the minimum of 16 days that had been in place when Democrats won two Senate runoffs in the state in January 2021.

As many as 22 of the state’s 159 counties let voters cast their ballots Saturday.

At a polling site in Atlanta, Boston College student Emma Demilio said she probably wouldn’t have been able to vote in person if the early voting sites hadn’t opened.

“This is kind of the only time that I’m in Georgia and able to vote. I leave tomorrow, so I was really happy I was able to get it in,” she said, adding that she may have tried to scramble for an absentee ballot.

Warnock continues to outraise Walker as they enter the final stretch.

Warnock raised nearly $52.2 million from October 20 through November 16, a period covering the end of the general election and roughly the first week of the runoff. Walker collected $20.9 million in that time, according to his campaign’s filings with the Federal Election Commission. Warnock ended the period with more than $29.7 million remaining in the bank, more than three times the $9.8 million left in the coffers of his rival.

Warnock is set to bring in a top Democratic surrogate: Former President Barack Obama is slated to travel to Atlanta on Thursday for a rally ahead of the final day of early voting.

So far, Obama is the only president past or present slated to visit Georgia ahead of the runoff.

Neither President Joe Biden, to whom Walker’s campaign has tried to latch Warnock, nor former President Donald Trump, who was in office when Republicans lost two Senate runoffs two years ago, have scheduled trips to the state. On Saturday, Warnock appeared with Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) at a rally in Sandy Springs, just outside of Atlanta.

Trump allies, including Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, have been out in force for Walker, the former president himself has not campaigned with the candidate he recruited.

Other Republicans, meanwhile, are rallying around Walker, with the Senate Leadership Fund, the super PAC aligned with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, pumping more than $10 million into the race since the general election.

In addition to the new influx of outside spending, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, who cruised to re-election earlier this month, made his first appearance with Walker on the trail after stiff-arming the former football great throughout the fall.

Kemp defeated a primary challenger backed by Trump in May and then outpaced Walker by more than 200,000 votes in the general election – a sign both of his crossover appeal to moderate Democrats and Walker’s difficulties consolidating Republicans.

Still, Democrats said they doubted Kemp could rescue Walker in a runoff election in which Walker is the only Republican on the ballot.

“There’s tons of folks that voted for Raphael Warnock and Brian Kemp,” said Jason Carter, the 2014 Democratic nominee for governor and grandson of former President Jimmy Carter.

He called Warnock a “unique figure,” noting that he “got more votes than Herschel Walker and he got more votes than any other Democrat.”

“People appreciate him. And they think of him as Raphael Warnock first, and as his political party and all that other stuff second,” Carter said.

A new potential flashpoint in the runoff election emerged Wednesday. The Georgia Supreme Court, in a separate legal battle, also reinstated the state’s six-week abortion ban.

It was a policy victory for the Republicans who had enacted that ban and defended it in court, but one that could come at a political cost, reviving the backlash over the Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade that energized Democrats and swung moderate voters in their favor on the party’s way to a surprisingly strong showing in this year’s midterm elections.

In the midterms, according to CNN exit polls, 28% of Georgia voters said abortion was the most important issue to their vote – second only to inflation at 37%.

Of those who identified abortion as the most important issue, 77% backed Warnock, compared to 21% who voted for Walker – a reversal of inflation, an issue that favored Walker by a 45 percentage point margin.

Fifty-three percent of Georgia voters said abortion should be legal in all or most cases, and among those voters, 75% backed Warnock. Of the 43% who said it should be illegal in all or most cases, 87% backed Walker.

Already, both parties have pumped more than $40 million into television advertising in the runoff. Democratic groups have spent nearly $25 million, while GOP groups have spent nearly $16 million, according to the ad tracking firm AdImpact.

In an effort to unite Republican factions, a Walker super PAC is sending out mailers touting Kemp’s support and trying to tie Warnock to Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams. “You stopped Stacey. Now reject Warnock,” they read.

“Who do you want to fight for you in the United States Senate? Do you want a guy that represents our values like Herschel Walker, or do you want a guy who’s stood with Joe Biden 96% of the time?,” said Kemp, borrowing a familiar attack from Walker, at a rally last weekend in Cobb County.

Kemp also echoes that line of attack in a new television ad launched by SLF. The governor and McConnell’s group have are also linking up for get out the vote efforts. SLF is boosting Kemp’s state operation, which has been pivoted to help Walker, with a $2 million cash injection.

Warnock’s campaign, too, is trying to win over Republicans who effectively chose Kemp over Trump.

A new ad from the Warnock campaign features a woman who says she voted for Kemp this year and describes herself as a lifelong Republican, but goes on to say she won’t support Walker in the runoff because of his “lack of character.”

Warnock has also campaigned on what should be some of Walker’s safest territory: his hometown. At an event in Wrightsville, where Walker played his high school football, Warnock asked voters to separate the sports hero from the political candidate.

“I saw what your favorite son did on the football field. I don’t mind giving credit where credit is due. That brother could razzle dazzle you on that football field. He created a lot of excitement and did a lot for the great University of Georgia. And he deserves credit for that,” Warnock said. “But tonight, we’re on a different field.”

At the same time, the Republican has faced some backlash over an ad of his own – alongside University of Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines, who has appeared with Walker before and competed with transgender swimmer Lia Thomas, who became a focus of debate surrounding trans women’s participation in sports and has frequently been attacked in conservative media.

“For more than a decade, I worked so hard. Four a.m. practices to be the best. But my senior year, I was forced to compete against a biological male,” Gaines says in the ad.

The spot was released in the days after a gunman allegedly targeted the LGBTQ community at a gay club in Colorado. One of the five people killed was a trans man.

Georgia court declines to halt Saturday early runoff voting

ATLANTA (AP) — A Georgia appeals court ruling on Monday means that counties can offer early voting this coming Saturday in the U.S. Senate runoff election between Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock and Republican Herschel Walker.

The Court of Appeals declined a request by the state to stay a lower court’s ruling that said state law allows early voting that day.

Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger had told county election officials that early voting could not be held that day because state law says it is illegal on a Saturday if there is a holiday on the Thursday or Friday preceding it.

Warnock’s campaign, along with the Democratic Party of Georgia and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, sued last week to challenge that guidance.

Thursday is Thanksgiving, and Friday is a state holiday. The Saturday following those two holidays is the only possibility for Saturday voting before next month’s Senate runoff election between Warnock and Walker.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Thomas Cox on Friday issued an order siding with the Warnock campaign and the Democratic groups. He found that the law cited by the state regarding Saturday voting after a holiday does not apply to a runoff election.

Lawyers for the state filed an appeal on Monday with the Georgia Court of Appeals. They asked the court to immediately stay the lower court ruling.

They argued in a court filing that the ruling was erroneous for procedural reasons but also that Cox was wrong to consider the runoff a separate type of election rather than a continuation of the general election.

In a one-sentence order Monday, the Georgia Court of Appeals declined to stay the lower court ruling.

It’s not clear how many counties will open polling places for voting on Saturday.

Warnock and Walker, a former football player, were forced into a Dec. 6 runoff because neither won a majority in the midterm election this month.

Georgia’s 2021 election law compressed the time period between the general election and the runoff to four weeks, and Thanksgiving falls in the middle. Many Georgians will be offered only five weekdays of early in-person voting beginning Nov. 28.

Garmin Fenix 7 just hit its lowest price ever in early Black Friday deal

Thanks to Black Friday deals, there’s an epic sale right now on a top-rated running watch — one of the best Garmin watches is $100 off right now, making it the ultimate score for anyone who’s into outdoor sports.

The Garmin Fenix 7, which launched this year, has $100 off in every configuration right now. That means you can grab the standard Garmin Fenix 7 for $599 at Walmart (opens in new tab), down from $699.

You can also snag the Garmin Fenix 7 Sapphire Solar edition for $799 at Walmart (opens in new tab), down from $899. The entire range is also available from Garmin directly (opens in new tab)

Why this is a good Black Friday deal

There are multiple reasons why this is one the best Black Friday smartwatch deals. For a long time, the Garmin Fenix range has been built for every kind of adventure, and none of that has changed with the Fenix 7 line. Garmin has made some big changes to make their adventure watch bigger and better than ever — it has better solar charging, a touchscreen, and a flashlight. 

The Fenix 7 is one of the best running watches on the market, and one of the most impressive watches we’ve tested this year. The adventure watch has a touchscreen, which allows you to swipe through and tap options like you would on any of the best smartwatches, up to 57 hours of battery life in GPS mode, and advanced mapping capabilities. 

(Image credit: Future)

When it comes to choosing between the models, the range comes in three different case sizes — the Fenix 7S is designed for smaller wrists and is 42mm, the Fenix 7 is 47mm, and the Fenix 7X is 51mm.

The next choice is the different editions. The standard edition of the watch has a stainless steel bezel and a reinforced glass screen and is built for tough adventures. The solar edition has the same bezel but has a power glass screen that extends the battery life of the watch as it can charge from the sunlight.

Finally, the sapphire solar edition Fenix 7 watches have a titanium bezel (which is stronger than the stainless steel bezels), as well as a power sapphire lens that also extends that watch’s battery life by charging from the sun, but is tougher than the glass lenses used in the other watches. 

What’s more, at $599 the Garmin Fenix 7 is a lot cheaper than the likes of the Apple Watch Ultra, which is still $779 in the early Black Friday sales. Even without solar charging, the Garmin Fenix 7 has a much longer battery life, a lot of advanced training features missing from the Apple Watch Ultra.

Here are some of the best early deals we’re seeing.

James Webb Space Telescope helps researchers uncover early galaxies in ‘new chapter in astronomy’

In what James Webb Space Telescope researchers call a “whole new chapter in astronomy,” the observatory has helped to locate two early galaxies, one of which may contain the most distant starlight ever seen. 

In a tweet, the international team said the unexpectedly bright galaxies could fundamentally alter what is known about the very first stars.

The research – two papers – was published last week in the Astrophysical Journal Letters. 

With just four days of analysis, researchers found the galaxies in the images from the Grism Lens-Amplified Survey from Space (GLASS) Early Release Science (ERS) program.

The scientists found that the galaxies existed around 450 and 350 million years after the big bang, though future spectroscopic measurements with Webb will help confirm these initial findings. 

Two of the farthest galaxies seen to date are captured in these Webb Space Telescope pictures of the outer regions of the giant galaxy cluster Abell 2744. The galaxies are not inside the cluster, but many billions of light-years farther behind it. The galaxy labeled (1) existed only 450 million years after the big bang. The galaxy labeled (2) existed 350 million years after the big bang. Both are seen really close in time to the Big Bang, which occurred 13.8 billion years ago. These galaxies are tiny, compared to our Milky Way, being just a few percent of its size, even the unexpectedly elongated galaxy labeled (1).

“With Webb, we were amazed to find the most distant starlight that anyone had ever seen, just days after Webb released its first data,” Rohan Naidu, of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, told NASA of the more distant GLASS galaxy – referred to as GLASS-z12 – which is believed to date back to 350 million years after the big bang. 

Naidu led one paper and Marco Castellano, of the National Institute for Astrophysics in Rome, Italy, led the other.

The previous record holder is galaxy GN-z11, which existed 400 million years after the big bang.

These two galaxies are thought to have existed 350 & 450 million years after the big bang (left to right). Unlike our Milky Way, these first galaxies are small and compact, with spherical or disk shapes rather than grand spirals.

“While the distances of these early sources still need to be confirmed with spectroscopy, their extreme brightnesses are a real puzzle, challenging our understanding of galaxy formation,” the University of Geneva’s Pascal Oesch said.

The observations reportedly push astronomers toward a consensus that an unusual number of galaxies in the early universe were much brighter than expected, making it easier for the telescope to find even more early galaxies.

“We’ve nailed something that is incredibly fascinating. These galaxies would have had to have started coming together maybe just 100 million years after the Big Bang. Nobody expected that the dark ages would have ended so early,” said Garth Illingworth of the University of California at Santa Cruz, a member of the Naidu and Oesch team. “The primal universe would have been just one hundredth its current age. It’s a sliver of time in the 13.8 billion-year-old evolving cosmos.”

Illingworth also told the agency the galaxies could have been very massive – with lots of low-mass stars – or much less massive, with Population III stars. 

NASA said, as has long been theorized, that these would be the first stars ever born, made up only of primordial hydrogen and helium.

No such extremely hot, primordial stars are seen in the local universe.

The galaxies are also unusually small and compact, with spherical or disk shapes rather than grand spirals.

This discovery of compact disks at such early times was only possible because of Webb’s much sharper images in infrared light.

It said follow-up observations will confirm the distances of the galaxies – which are based on measuring their infrared colors – and that spectroscopy measurements will provide independent verification.

“These observations just make your head explode. This is a whole new chapter in astronomy. It’s like an archaeological dig, and suddenly you find a lost city or something you didn’t know about. It’s just staggering,” Paola Santini, an author of the Castellano-led paper, said.
