In 2026, software doesn’t just store health data - AI allows it to see medical risk before anyone else. When consumers use AI for their health, we are increasingly faced with the dilemma of whether AI companies have a duty...
Novavax (unlike the mRNA vaccines) generates antibodies to both S1 and S2 units of the spike protein - explaining why it provides somewhat broader protection. I've personally gotten Novavax every time it was available at vaccine time.

The complexity of our immune system is daunting. But there's a path to deconvolute it and understand causal relationships. It's CRISPR. open-access @JExpMed https://t.co/QF6Cvkbfz2 https://t.co/OTL2z1fow0

The key point here is that the proposed study would not have equipoise because almost certainly some babies in the control arm would get hepatitis from their infected mother.

Many accuse health systems of not being willing to innovate. The truth? Lots of innovation is being explored all the time - you just don’t hear about them because most never make it to system-wide scale. For every 100 ideas that...
