  • Valneva is a whole inactivated coronavirus 19 vaccine created in France. This video will address these questions: how does Valneva work, how is Valneva made, and how it compares to other whole inactivated vaccines like Sinovac and Covaxin. Valneva uses Vero Cell technology as does Sinovac and Covaxin. Vero cells are Grivet (old world monkey) kidney cells which COVID-19 readily infects and replicates (makes copies of itself). Then the researchers infect the Vero cells, collect and purify the COVID-19, and then inactivate the COVID-19 with either heat, chemicals, or radiation. The whole purified virus is injected into the arm with two adjuvants, Alum and CpG DNA. The safety profile is good. The main adverse reactions are headaches and fatigue. The Phase III clinical trial data was completed in 4000 people and the UK has ordered millions of doses upon approval.

      @@sofascialistadankulamegado1781 it seems that Pfizer wants to give booster shots every 6 mths at least; if I have that correct. So do you have information that Novavax lasts less than 6 mths? If you look into it more closely I think you may find that most people wanting to wait for Novavax have pre-existing conditions/personal or family health histories around clotting, palsy etc & the adverse events databases have many instances of those types of reactions occurring with the currently available vaccines. Results from Novavax trials have shown less adverse effects so it looks promising for those with valid health concerns. It may be a while before we have a one size fits all solution like our current arsenal of vaccines. 😉

    From what I read, Valneva does the inactivation by chemical beta-propriolactone BPL. This is a disinfectant. I would like to know how its gets filtered out or neutralized afterwards, since it is a human carcinogen. There must be a way, since it is also used to sterilize blood plasmas

    • @Cristina091

      You know that the meaning of neutralizing is to prevent the expected reaction.

    Hey There! Thank you for your videos. I love both vaccines Novavax and valneva. But here is where I have some questions. Novavax seems to elict mainly humoral immunity which seems to drop fast after a while. It is quite hard to find reports on the cellural immunity. While Valneva is promising here despite not having such repid humoral immunity we get broad response including cellural with very mild adjuvant. If you'd have to guess which ones would be prefered covid vaccines in following years?

    • @friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192
      @friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I agree it's hard to find published studies comparing how well each vaccines makes cellular versus humoral immunity. It seems like the viral vector vaccines and mRNA vaccines make the most memory T cell responses. Between Valneva and Novavax, it would have to be a guess then. It is likely that Valneva contains more toll-like receptor ligands and therefore will activate more innate immune cells and T cells.

      Thanks Leena! Alum is aluminum or some version of it. Aluminum hydroxide or an aluminum salt are commonly used. They are in very small quantities in the shot. If you use anti-perspirant than you already regularly use Aluminum. CpG is a small part of a bacteria's DNA. It activates the immune system to help you form a memory T and B cell response and make antibodies.

I could recreate it. I could get the eqiupment and the materieals to make that vaccines. Which makes it Free and Opensource. And it follows the unix philosophie because it can be done decentralized. Allthough it's not done like that which is sad. It put's it in a spot like systemd. However i am very interested in this. Would you be able to make a totourial on how to (theoretically) make this vaccine? Like a touturial that if you had the time and money you would be able to use that toutourial to make a working Whole inactivated virus vaccine. And could you explain every step in detail.

    As a friendly neighborhood immunologist, you should maybe have pointed out that 4000 persons are way too few for a phase 3 study. Maybe you should also have pointed out that the Valneva phase 3 study didn´t use a placebo control group. The control group got the Astra Zeneca vaccine. By this setup alone, the study is completely useless. In 4000 persons there are no severe outcomes because there are little to no infections. Maybe you should also have pointed out that CpG, the enzyme you seemed so happy about, is completely new, so Valneva is not the well-known vaccine we use for 60 to 80 years. There is only one other vaccine using CpG, and this vaccine has been approved less than 10 months ago. Also, this vaccine is rarely used, so there is little to no knowledge about CpG and its side effects.
    Most importantly, I really would have liked you to mention that vaccinating against Corona is pretty much stupid in the first place, as mathematically for every person that is protected against medium to severe outcomes there is a multitude of persons going through medium to severe vaccine side effects. And this ratio only worsens with each additional booster jab.

    So, I have an excellent immune system. The last time I was sick was in December 2019, and it lasted for two days only. Before that it was in 2017. The trick is to catch symptoms as early as possible, stay home and do what works for you.
    Anyhow, I am WAY more concerned about potential adverse effects of the vaccines, than their efficacy. If it’s above 60% it’s good enough for me.
    So my question here is, what do we know about the potential adverse effects of Valneva? I’m not talking about typical side effects like sore arm, headache, etc. I’m talking about things like blood clots, heart issues, Guillen-barre syndrome, and the like.

    • @friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192
      @friendlyneighborhoodimmuno7192  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Good question! The logic of many varied antibodies over one type of antibody does make sense. There is no head to head data between Valneva and Pfizer or Moderna. If you look at the other whole inactivated vaccines like Sinovac or Covaxin their efficacy is a little lower than the mRNA vaccines. This could be due to many variables that we can't account for. It may be that the mRNA vaccines cause more antibody production or that the antibodies last longer, but in the real world comparing data across countries is very difficult. All of the vaccines are keeping people out of the hospital, so that's something they have in common. Also the spike protein can't mutate too much or the coronavirus won't be able to use it to get into our cells, since the spike protein must conserve the key region which binds to ACE2.

Non-lethal viruses don't kill their host, and this allows the host to spread it; this has been the tendency with SARS-cov2. This is natural selection. Everyone gets infected with a non-lethal coronavirus, gets inmunized, people stop dying, and a balance is reached. So nature itself (or god) is ending this pandemic.
