and analytical services, today announced its OMNIgene·ORAL (OME-505) saliva collection device,
a product of Ottawa-based subsidiary DNA Genotek, has received authorization from Health Canada
for use as a component in molecular diagnostic tests for the detection of SARS-CoV-2.
Diagnostic labs, provincial and territory health authorities and COVID-19 test kit providers
in Canada now have access to a non-invasive and painless saliva collection device to facilitate expansion of their COVID-19 testing programs.
“Widespread testing for COVID-19 is likely to occur for the foreseeable future, with periods of intense testing
required to respond to the local outbreaks that will inevitably arise,”
said Kathleen Weber, Executive Vice-President, Business Unit Leader, Molecular Solutions at DNA Genotek.

At least eight companies have been awarded government grants to develop vaccination passport schemes, it has been reported.
The projects, worth a total of £450,000, could allow users to securely carry digital proof
that they have received an approved Covid-19 vaccine. The government has however this morning denied
that such a scheme is being considered, and cabinet minister Michael Gove has said they are 'not the plan'.
But ministers have contradicted each other on the issue, including Boris Johnson's vaccine tsar Nadhim Zahawi
who said they were 'looking at the technology'.
One of the recipient projects is led by Enduring Net, which is working on a £49,678 decentralised system
that can digitally provide 'proofs of individuals' Covid-19 credentials', which will include proof of vaccination.
Another project, worked on collaboratively by firms Mvine and iProov, was given £75,000 for a passport
which would be issued in the form of a free app so users could digitally prove they have received a jab.
EAS Technologies' project was given £173,876 to develop an accreditation platform
that hopes to be used by organisers of the 'world's largest sporting organisations, events, and facilities'.

Consumer DNA-testing company 23andMe Inc. is in talks to go public through a roughly $4 billion deal with VG Acquisition Corp.,
a special purpose acquisition company founded by billionaire Richard Branson,
according to people familiar with the matter. Co-founded in 2006 by Anne Wojcicki,
23andMe sells direct-to-consumer genetic testing kits. The company launched with the aim of using genetics
to kick start a personalized health-care revolution, with a $1,000 test
that could alert customers to potential health risks.
When the Covid-19 pandemic began last year, 23andMe launched a million-person study to look at how genomics and other factors contribute
to how severely ill those who contract the virus become.
23andMe has raised $869 million in private funding to date and counts Sequoia Capital and Fidelity Management among its backers.

The French company will aim to help supply more than 100 million doses of the vaccine this year
from its German plant in Frankfurt, CEO Paul Hudson told Le Figaro newspaper on Tuesday.
Last month, Sanofi and Britain's GlaxoSmithKline said a COVID-19 vaccine they are jointly developing
had shown an insufficient immune response in older people, delaying its launch to late this year.
Sanofi is also working on another COVID-19 vaccine candidate with U.S. firm Translate Bio
which uses mRNA technology, similar to the approach of Pfizer/BioNTech.

(January 28, 2021) A 'Mammoth' boost to COVID-19 testing capacity
Even as multiple COVID-19 vaccine candidates approach regulatory approval, work is ongoing to develop additional diagnostics
and treatments to keep up with the virus. Among the many companies pursuing such efforts are Mammoth Biosciences, Inc. and Agilent Technologies,
who have established a co-marketing agreement for the launch of a complete CRISPR-based SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic solution
combining Agilent's Bravo automation workstation with Mammoth Biosciences' DETECTR BOOST assay.
Mammoth Biosciences refers to its DETECTR platform as “a search engine for biology.”
As explained on the company's website, “Our proprietary testing system works by employing CRISPR nucleases, programmed to find a defined gene sequence.
Upon finding the sequence of interest, the nuclease activates a cleavage capability, which generates a signal. The signal confirms the sequence has been found.”
The platform is suited for applications such as bacterial infections, viral infections, single nucleotide polymorphisms, antimicrobial resistance, and cancer screening and profiling.

Re: Wuhan (Novel) Corona Virus -looming pandemy of deadly pneumonia? - Pandemy ongoing!
Tessera has spent the past two years developing a new class of molecular manipulators
capable of doing lots of things Crispr can do—and some that it can’t, including precisely plugging in long stretches of DNA.
It’s not gene editing, says von Maltzahn. It’s “gene writing.”
The company hasn’t yet demonstrated that any of its gene writers can eliminate an inherited disease.
But in mouse models, the team has consistently been able to use them to insert lots of copies
of a large green fluorescent protein gene into the animals’ genomes as a way of proving that they can reliably place designer DNA.
Now, scientists have been making animals artificially glow for decades.
What’s different about Tessera’s method is that company’s scientists only need to inject a bit of RNA to make it happen.
The ability to inject just a piece of RNA, similar to the approach taken by one of the leading Covid-19 vaccinemakers, Moderna,
could make it easier for researchers to go after genetic conditions in which the treatment involves adding big chunks of reparative genetic code.

(January 12, 2021) Tessera Therapeutics scores $230M to ramp up 'gene writing' tech to cure disease
Tessera Therapeutics is pioneering “gene writing,” a kind of genetic medicine it hopes will surmount the limitations of gene editing
and gene therapy—and investors have bet more than $230 million on the approach.
At its core, gene writing simply means writing short or long messages into the genome
to treat disease, said Tessera CEO Geoffrey von Maltzahn, Ph.D.
“What that allows is one to be able to cure or prevent a disease from ever happening by writing in the code of DNA,
which of course drives the biology in every single cell in the body,”
he said. Tessera is developing multiple ways to do it.

No need for a "big event" but development. One of my ideas to reach it: Don't play "their" games - don't use "their" rules - don't think in the box of "their" paradigms.
It's more "refuse" than "resist" - without too much ideology. You don't need to know much about "what's going on behind the curtains", it's mainly to create your own rules together with like-minded people.

Oak Valley Hospital District is offering its employees a $300 bonus to get vaccinated.
The independent hospital in Oakdale, California, decided to implement a financial incentive after only 40% of its 600 employees
initially turned up to get the shot. Many health care systems have seen widespread reluctance among workers to get vaccinated.
According to Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, 60% of his state’s nursing home workers declined the vaccine.
In some health care settings, as many as 80% of workers have turned down the vaccine,
according to an AP report. Although some vaccine hesitancy among health care workers was expected,
the large numbers unsettle many experts in the field.

The deputy commissioner for public health at the New York State Health Department resigned in late summer.
Soon after, the director of its bureau of communicable disease control also stepped down.
So did the medical director for epidemiology. Last month, the state epidemiologist said she, too, would be leaving.
In recent weeks, the governor has repeatedly made it clear that he believed he had no choice but to seize more control
over pandemic policy from state and local public health officials, who he said had no understanding
of how to conduct a real-world, large-scale operation like vaccinations.
Mayor Bill de Blasio forced out the head of New York City’s respected health department over the summer.
Around the country, frustrated and overwhelmed public health officials have resigned in large numbers.
In Albany, tensions worsened in recent months as state health officials said they often found out about major changes in pandemic policy
only after Mr. Cuomo announced them at news conferences — and then asked them to match their health guidance to the announcements.
That was what happened with the vaccine plan, when state health officials were blindsided
by the news that the rollout would be coordinated locally by hospitals.

BA to trial VeriFLY on London to US flights
British Airways will be the first UK airline to trial VeriFLY,
a new biometric mobile health app that provides authentication of COVID-related documents,
on flights from London to ten U.S. cities. Starting Thursday February 4th,
BA will be the only airline outside of the U.S. to trial VeriFLY.
In November, American Airlines (BA’s joint business and oneworld partner) began offering VeriFLY
to travelers from Jamaica, Chile, Colombia, El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala to Miami.
As of January 23rd, the trial was extended to any international destination to the U.S.
VeriFLY was developed by biometric authentication and identity assurance solutions provider Daon.
Vaccine programs have already begun in some of the 27 countries, and in the UK, iProov has begun trialing its biometric
technology to preserve the privacy of health information within the National Health service.
Tourism dependent countries like Greece, Portugal and Cyprus are advocating more strongly for the EU immunity passport,
which would likely be tied to the individual with biometrics, while France has rejected the notion due to widespread vaccine skepticism.

Moderna, one of two developers of federally authorized coronavirus vaccines, is asking U.S. regulators to approve
what it says could be a remarkably simple proposal to speed up the immunization
of Americans against the coronavirus: Fill empty space in its vials with as many as 50 percent more doses.
Moderna currently produces about half of the nation’s vaccine stock.
If the change is approved — which could happen in weeks — it could ultimately add tens of millions of more doses to vaccine supplies.
At the same time, the White House announced on Tuesday that it was enlisting more retail pharmacies as a channel to distribute vaccines.

New Zealand's medicine regulator Medsafe has provisionally approved the use of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.
The vaccines are expected to arrive in New Zealand by the end of March,
the Government said, adding that people at highest risk would be vaccinated
before the broader community from the second half of the year.
With vaccination drives underway in dozens of countries — and Australia's approval of the Pfizer vaccine in January
pressure has been mounting on Ms Ardern to start inoculations.

Ten euros to GPs for vaccinations in the doctor's office, 28 if the administration takes place at home.
These are the rates that the Italian Regions would pay white coats for anti-Covid vaccinations.
This is foreseen by the general agreement which should be discussed today by the Regions.

Hey, @AndrewYang! Denmark just announced that they are creating Digital Vaccine Passes, but they are starting with business travelers. The Finance Minister just announced this on TV.
