New Bedford Science Café, Tues., 10/4, from 6 to 8 p.m., The Last Round Bar & Grille, 908 Purchase St., New Bedford. Open to everyone. Free, save for the beer!
Our guest, Seth Lederman, M.D., CEO of Tonix Pharmaceuticals, will discuss Next Generation Covid Vaccines; The Quest for The Knockout Punch. While vaccines made from mRNA have gone far in protecting people against Covid-19, health officials are recognizing two shortcomings: a short duration of protection and an inability to block forward transmission. Seth will tell us about different approaches to “Next-Gen” Covid vaccines underway at Tonix & other companies. They include the use of live-virus vaccines, delivered by traditional jabs, and other types of vaccines delivered by mouth or intranasal stray. In July, the White House held a summit in which Dr. Fauci declared the urgent need for Next-Gen vaccines. In August, Senators Burr and Inhofe proposed Operation Warp Speed 2.0 for this task.
Seth earned his M.D. From Columbia where he served as professor of medicine and attending physician before becoming a biopharma entrepreneur. Tonix is a member of the Next Gen Vaccine Alliance.
Videos of recent events can be found on NBSC’s website. We ask that you be vaccinated & facemasks are strongly recommended.
