The country plans to give the vaccine – known as Mosquirix (RTS,S/AS01) – to about 250,000 children by the end of 2025. The...
Revealed: Covid engineering plans were shared as coded messages between Wuhan lab and US scientists
The documents show that the scientists behind DEFUSE proposed a strategy to stitch SARS-related viral genomes together using six pieces.
Fresh evidence obtained by US Right to Know reveals further how US virologists worked with Wuhan lab to engineer Covid
American scientists planned to work with the Wuhan Institute of Virology to engineer novel coronaviruses with the features of SARS-CoV-2 the year before the virus emerged from that city, according to documents obtained by US Right to Know. While rare in nature, these features were central to the esoteric research...

Scientists find a quarter million invisible nanoplastic particles in a litre of bottled water
Previous studies have looked at slightly bigger microplastics that range from the visible five millimetres, less than a quarter of an inch, to one micron. About 10 to 100 times more nanoplastics than microplastics were discovered in bottled water, the study found.
