With the media fearmongering over avian influenza A (H5N1)‚ it’s worth asking if public health officials and pharmaceutical companies already have an ‘approved’ vaccine.  We’ve seen reports of livestock infected with bird flu and a human case earlier this month. “The Texas Department of State Health Services is reporting a human case of avian influenza A(H5N1) virus in Texas. The case was identified in a person who had direct exposure to dairy cattle presumed to be infected with avian influenza‚” the Texas Department of State Health Services previously stated. According to MedPage Today‚ “a trio of H5N1 vaccines for humans has already been developed and approved in the U.S.” “A trio of H5N1 vaccines for humans has already been developed and approved in the U.S.” @COVIDSelect pic.twitter.com/68ahgLTcKi — Mary Talley Bowden MD (@MdBreathe) April 23‚ 2024 A spokesperson for the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR) told the outlet it is monitoring the situation closely with partners from the CDC‚ FDA‚ Department of Agriculture‚ and White House. The spokesperson said the ASPR’s National Pre-Pandemic Influenza Vaccine Stockpile (NPIVS) program “works closely with industry partners to make and test updated vaccines that match new strains of influenza viruses with pandemic potential as they emerge‚ while at the same time‚ supporting manufacturing capacity to allow for large-scale vaccine production if needed.” “Hundreds of thousands of doses could be deployed within weeks pending regulatory action‚ and over 100 million doses could be deployed in the coming months‚” the spokesperson told the outlet. MedPage Today noted that three partners currently have H5N1 vaccines licensed for use in the United States – CSL Seqirus‚ GSK‚ and Sanofi. “Why is the bird flu (highly pathogenic avian influenza‚ H5N1) human vaccine a US @NIH @BARDA project with CSL&;#63; Why is it called a ‘biodefense’ project&;#63;” Dr. Peter McCullough asked. Why is the bird flu (highly pathogenic avian influenza‚ H5N1) human vaccine a US @NIH @BARDA project with CSL&;#63; Why is it called a &;quot;biodefense&;quot; project&;#63; Why is Community Notes writing deceiving messages on bird flu posts&;#63; All coming together now. https://t.co/shcLRGWkqL https://t.co/qIqju0ozgp pic.twitter.com/6ldTOQvLMU — Peter A. McCullough‚ MD‚ MPH® (@P_McCulloughMD) April 23‚ 2024 * Image from Dr. Peter McCullough X Post * Per MedPage Today: Sanofi developed egg-based A/H5N1 vaccines as early as 2004 and received the first U.S. license for such a vaccine in 2007‚ a spokesperson for the company told MedPage Today. “Our egg-based vaccine supply would well contribute to support a global influenza pandemic response should it arise either from A/H5N1 or any other influenza strain‚” the spokesperson said‚ adding that in December 2019‚ Sanofi entered into an agreement with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) to “establish sustainable production of a recombinant vaccine for use in the event of a pandemic.” That would allow the company “to leverage the technology used for one of our approved seasonal flu vaccines to deliver a pandemic vaccine‚” the spokesperson said. A spokesperson for GSK said the company is also monitoring the situation‚ along with the evolving epidemiology: “We are directly connected with our contractual partners to deliver on our commitments in the event that an influenza pandemic is declared.” However‚ “GSK is not planning to disrupt seasonal flu production plans while there is no global health emergency‚” the spokesperson added. In 2022‚ the company was awarded multi-year contracts with the U.S.‚ Canada‚ the European Union‚ and the WHO to supply its pandemic preparedness vaccine if the WHO declared an influenza pandemic‚ the spokesperson said. “These contracts will support the ready production and supply of this vaccine‚ and together could provide at least 200 million doses of pandemic influenza vaccine around the world.” As for what may be currently available for use‚ the spokesperson said that the company’s pandemic vaccine is “developed to be updated with the latest circulating strains‚ and this follows the process for seasonal flu‚ where strains are identified by the WHO and vaccines are updated every season.” “The timeline for this depends on several factors‚ including the licensing processes‚ which would be determined when a pandemic is declared‚” the spokesperson noted. For its part‚ CSL Seqirus said in a statement that it is able to “make a vaccine in response to government orders for use in a disease outbreak‚ for people who could be occupationally exposed to sick animals‚ or full-scale production of pandemic influenza vaccine should a pandemic be declared.” “Fear Mongering‚ Food Supply Threat‚ Virus with a Deadly Past‚ BARDA Self-Amplifying mRNA Vaccines–A Perfect Storm is Brewing‚” Dr. Peter McCullough previously stated. “After warning us for months that 2024 could see another deadly pandemic‚ the medical establishment and governmental health organizations are sounding the alarm bells on bird flu. Not only are they drawing comparisons to COVID-19‚ they are in fact claiming that bird flu has the potential to be 100 TIMES MORE DEADLY&;#33;” 100 Percent Fed Up previously noted.

Many have said it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience‚ but Laverne Biser recently prepared to see his 13th solar eclipse&;#33; Texan Laverne Biser‚ now 105 years old‚ was born in 1918 and began viewing solar eclipses in 1963. His lifelong fascination with the celestial phenomena took him to Dover-Foxcroft‚ Maine‚ for his inaugural viewing experience. However‚ in the 60 years since‚ he's traveled worldwide to catch and capture the best possible views of each rare eclipse. RELATED: 100-Year-Old Veteran Began Walking‚ Rain or Shine‚ to Raise Money &; Look How Far He's Gone Laverne Biser Loves Astronomy and Building Things From near Bali to Brazil‚ Mr. Biser has traveled with his own equipment. Laverne is a retired engineer who loves astronomy and building things; he's been interested in both since he was a little boy. In addition to designing airplanes for General Dynamics‚ Laverne has designed and built various things for his own personal use-including telescopes for his eclipse-chasing adventures&;#33; Laverne was excited to find the perfect view of the April 8‚ 2024‚ eclipse in the company of his daughter and granddaughter in Plano‚ not far from his home in Fort Worth. Mr. Biser's eclipse trips often became family vacations with his two children and his late wife‚ Marian. Laverne's daughter‚ 76-year-old Carol Biser Barlow‚ told the Washington Post that those road trips had taken her to 49 of the 50 states by the time she had graduated high school&;#33; His Daughter Picked Her Wedding Date Based On An Eclipse In fact‚ Carol's wedding date was even influenced by her father's love for the rare cosmic occurrences. She shared‚ &;quot;I told my parents about two possible dates for my wedding - one on June 3rd and one on July 8th. My dad said‚ ‘If you want me to give you away‚ you'll have to pick the earlier date. I won't be here on July 8th.' He had an eclipse to get to.&;quot; RELATED: Man's Family Celebrates His Big Day With 100th Birthday Dog Parade And He Loves Every Second Laverne has photos and mementos from each of the thirteen eclipses he witnessed. The centenarian considers each unique. One of his favorite photos was taken during the 1979 eclipse‚ which he observed from Williston‚ South Dakota. Mr. Biser knows that number 13 may be his last eclipse because there will not be another total solar eclipse visible from the United States for another twenty years. He said‚ &;quot;I probably won't be around for the next one. So I'm hoping the weather will cooperate long enough for me to see this one. I'm praying for clear weather.&;quot; No doubt‚ Laverne appreciated his most recent eclipse as much as the prior dozen. In advance of the big event‚ Laverne said‚ &;quot;It's really something - there's nothing like that dark sky in the middle of the day. I always feel like a lucky man when I see it. It reminds me that no matter where you are in life‚ we're all just a little spot in the universe.&;quot; &;quot;In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.&;quot; Genesis 1:1 YOU MAY ALSO LIKE: Stranger Takes Old Man To Disneyland And The 100-Year-Old Veteran Has A Blast WATCH: 105-Year-Old Eclipse Fan Excited to See His 13th Solar Eclipse LISTEN: TV Stars Met in the Soaps and Their Marriage Is Still Going Strong | She Fled to Escape an Arranged Marriage h/t: Sunny Skyz Featured Image Credit: YouTube/FOX 26 Houston The post 105-Year-Old Eclipse Fan Excited to See His 13th Solar Eclipse appeared first on GodUpdates.
