jcrandle Posted August 19, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Just saw this today. If we could tie in booze smuggling and swim diapers, we could bring the board to its knees! http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20090819/sc_nm/us_tobacco_vaccine_2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted August 19, 2009 #3 Share Posted August 19, 2009 REALLY interesting article but your sensational thread title isn't really all that accurate. :D They are talking about forcing the tobacco to make the protein which will be used to make the vaccine. But they are not telling us anyone will be smoking tobacco. Tests have suggested the vaccine would work better in the nose than taken orally, probably because immune cells in the nasal passages are more inclined to take up the vaccine. How hopeful they may actually formulate a protection against Noro Virus. Thanks very much for the link. Very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mea Culpa, however, when have most of the titles of post really identified the subject? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
