Novavax Covid Vaccine Approved by U.K. – And This One Isn’t Gene Therapy

The U.K. has approved a fifth COVID-19 vaccine, developed by U.S. company Novavax, which in trials offered up to 89% protection against symptomatic Covid from the Wuhan and Alpha variants. Unlike the other vaccines currently in use for COVID-19, it uses established vaccine technology to induce an immune response rather than mRNA or another genetic mechanism, the safety of which is largely unknown. BBC News has the story.

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency has said it is safe as a first and second dose in adults. Millions of doses are currently being manufactured at a plant on Teesside.

Health Secretary Sajid Javid says independent scientists on the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation will now consider its use. The vaccine could then be used immediately as part of the U.K. vaccination programme. But, with more than 91% of the UK population already double vaccinated, it is more likely to be used later in the year as part of a possible autumn or winter booster rollout. Before that can happen, the company would need additional authorisation from the medicines regulator.

“It’s a testament to the country’s first-rate research and development capabilities for vaccines,” Mr Javid said, “with tens of thousands of people taking part in clinical trials here in the U.K., contributing to the invaluable research that shows our vaccines are safe and effective.”

The Novavax product – known by the brand name Nuvaxovid – was shown to be 89% effective against catching symptomatic COVID-19 in clinical trials. The original research was conducted against both the earlier Wuhan and Alpha variants of the virus. In December, Novavax said two doses were also effective in generating an immune response against the now dominant Omicron variant, first identified in South Africa. The company has also started working on a version specific to Omicron.

MHRA Chief Executive Dr. June Raine, said: “Our approval of Nuvaxovid follows a rigorous review of the safety, quality and effectiveness of this vaccine, and expert advice from the government’s independent scientific advisory body, the Commission on Human Medicines.”

The jab, a protein adjuvant vaccine, is based on technology used for decades to protect people from diseases such as hepatitis and shingles. It delivers copies of the spike protein on the surface of the virus directly into a person’s cells, stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies and T-cells. An extra ingredient, an adjuvant, then helps boost the immune response. Scientists say this approach makes it simpler to produce than some other vaccines and means it can be stored in a refrigerator.

The fact that the vaccine is still based on the spike protein means it will still have the same limitations as the other vaccines stemming from not stimulating a response to the wider virus genome. It will also be limited against variants such as Omicron with multiple mutations in the spike protein.

However, as it delivers only a set dose of spike protein, rather than genetic material that induces cells to generate an indefinite amount of spike protein potentially throughout the body, scientists hope it may suffer from fewer of the safety issues that have beset the genetic-based vaccines.

Nonetheless, the clinical trials did report some severe adverse reactions:

  • U.K. trial – systemic adverse events were much higher in the vaccine group and more than doubled following the second dose. Adverse reactions were also higher in younger age groups. There was one case of myocarditis in the vaccine group and none in the placebo, and two deaths related to COVID-19 were reported in the vaccine group compared with one in the placebo group.
  • South Africa trial – Medically-attended adverse events and serious adverse events occurred more often in the vaccine group than in the placebo group (13 versus six medically-attended adverse events and two versus one serious adverse events).

Is this because of the properties of the spike protein itself, or due to other ingredients of the vaccine? Certainly something to keep an eye on.

Still the spike protein with all it’s Angiotensin II pathway consequences – vascular damage etc. Why bother when Omnicold seems to be stopped by the mucosal defenses limiting it to upper respiratory infections and not initiating a systemic immune response.

Yes, I understand all the above comments but, for whatever reason anyone might still wish to take a vaccine, or even as a booster, I do think there is a legitimate need to explore the issue of the relative safety between the different vaccine types. With Novavax, on the one hand,it is not a gene therapy and it will not affect human chromsomes. It will not produce viral spike proteins from viral mRNA inside human cells which then form spikes which protrude through the cell membrane to produce clotting either from the direct effect on bllod flow, especially in narrow capillaries, or from the immune response causing inflammation and tissue damage. On the other hand, it is introducing viral spike proteins directly and it is still likely that some of these will enter the blood stream and circulate throughout the body, possibly getting the S1 protein (which is small enough to cross the blood/brain barrier) cleaved away; although the manufacture states that this will not happen to to a modification of the cleavage site. On the surface, it would SEEM that Novavax should be relatively safer than the mRNA/DNA vaccines, BUT we really don’t know because the independent clinical data… Read more »

You’re just jumping to an unwarranted conclusion. There’s a big difference between the mRNA vaccines that are actually causing cells in the heart or blood vessels to produce the spike protein and something like Novavax where the amount of the spike protein that could get into the bloodstream is far below anything that has been shown to be harmful.

That being the case, why would you roll up your sleeve for a jab, still in its trial phase, which will give you a dose of a spike protein which is almost certain to mutate again and the spike protein you have got via the jab will then be useless

Yet I don’t have so much as a sniffle. Come to think of it, the last true cold I had was about 6 years ago, and influenza 20 years ago. For something that is supposed to be incredibly easy to catch, Omicron is a big disappointment for me! Not a chance.

It wasn’t just a cold for anyone in my family, but apart from MOH it also wasn’t as bad as the flu. We’ve had the flu, so we know. There was a day or so when I wasn’t sure MOH was going to survive, and the doctors weren’t sure either, but we’re both home now, and fine. If you’re relatively young and healthy, you’ll be fine when you do catch it, assuming you haven’t already and had no symptoms of had immunity. It’s very variable, with some people worse than others.

I’m sorry some of your family experienced illness, but with respect, that sounds like it was definitely not Omicron. A household in my family got it two weeks ago, with two still testing positive, ages from mid thirty to mid sixty. Two had three doses of the so-called vaccine, one unvaccinated. One had a runny nose, one a mild cough, and one a mild headache. Had it not been for the lateral flow tests, none of them would not have believed themselves to be ill.

Similar story for everyone I personally know to have had positive LFTs in my area recently. One person I spoke to yesterday described it as “the mildest illness he had ever experienced” – it caused him to close his independent business because of two weeks of positive LFT results.

I thought this vaccine was dead in the water when I read your safety update on 9th December, Will: https://staging.dailysceptic.org/2021/12/09/vaccine-safety-update-20/ The Novavax vaccine clinical trial results have been reported in three study papers, indicating some severe adverse reactions:UK trial – systemic adverse events were much higher in the vaccine group and more than doubled following the second dose. Adverse reactions were also higher in younger age groups. There was one case of myocarditis in the vaccine group and none in the placebo, and two deaths related to COVID-19 were reported in the vaccine group compared with one in the placebo group.South Africa trial – Medically-attended adverse events and serious adverse events occurred more often in the vaccine group than in the placebo group (13 versus six medically-attended adverse events and two versus one serious adverse events).Animal trials in baboons and mice showed that functional antibody immunity induced by this nanoparticle vaccine and Matrix-M adjuvant depends on both the adjuvant and antigen components.

Indeed, and the recommendation of budesonide to GPs for outpatient COVID treatment was recently withdrawn. No explanation given but presumably to make way for the much more expensive Pfizer/Merck treatments.

Withdrawal of the Recommendation for Consideration of Inhaled Budesonide as a Treatment Option for COVID-19

In parallel to the publication of revised guidance from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), the previously published UK interim position statement covering inhaled budesonide as a treatment option for individuals with COVID infection has been withdrawn. Inhaled budesonide should no longer be considered as a treatment for COVID-19 infection

Inhaled budesonide for COVID-19 in people at high risk of complications in the community in the UK (PRINCIPLE)
Inhaled budesonide improves time to recovery, with a chance of also reducing hospital admissions or deaths (although our results did not meet the superiority threshold), in people with COVID-19 in the community who are at higher risk of complications.

Inhaled budesonide in the treatment of early COVID-19 (STOIC)
Early administration of inhaled budesonide reduced the likelihood of needing urgent medical care and reduced time to recovery after early COVID-19.

WHY HAS THIS TREATMENT BEEN WITHDRAWN?

The idea that, after all the horrors that have been visited upon us in the last two years or so, sceptics (or the hesitant) would believe the labelling on a vial of vax is, surely, hilarious.
It could be warfarin, but labelled Novavax. It could be nanoparticles; it could be vaccum-cleaner-bag contents.
Add to this that it’ll be administered by folk who won’t even aspirate the syringe to ensure that they’re not shoving it straight into a vein – and the ‘No Thanks’ sign must remain in place.

Another ‘vaccine’ that no-one needs to take for an illness that doesn’t exist (except in your mind).
Oh well, now that millions of doses have been made and paid for, we’d better line the gullible up yet again for their shots.
This will really help ‘Covid’ go away…

No bloody way.

Absolutely no chance I will allow the government to inject me ever again with a so-called vaccine.

What sort of trials has thing undergone?

There will not be any short, certainly no medium and definitely no long-term data on effectiveness or safety so it effectively remains untested. And let’s not forget the IFR for this poorliness is 0.15%. Quite simply we don’t damn well need it.

Are they releasing the recipe for this new brew? I wonder what secret ingredients this little monster contains.

Clearly this shit show is not over and the gaslighting continues. My position remains unchanged – I ain’t playing the game.

They can shove it.

Apparently it is the same approach as used for the shingles
Subunit and conjugate vaccines only contain parts of the organism used to stimulate an immune response. They also cannot cause infection and are safe for immunocompromised patients. Examples of subunit and conjugate vaccines are:

  • Pneumococcus
  • Meningococcus
  • Hepatitis B
  • Pertussis (whooping cough)
  • Haemophilus influenza type B
  • Human papillomavirus (HPV)
  • Shingles (herpes-zoster virus)“

There’s been a lot of infomercials on the radio recently about shingles and how the dormant chickenpox virus can be reactivated. Perhaps they are anticipating a deluge of cases for some reason.

(I only have radio Smooth on in my car as I like the music when driving.)

Stress is a well known trigger for zoster reactivation. Reports of various herpes reactivations being associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection and the vaccines.

In November 2021, Csollány contracted an undisclosed variant of SARS-CoV-2. According to his doctor, he was given the Janssen COVID-19 vaccine two weeks before he fell ill. This vaccine requires only one dose. Csollány had previouly been critical of vaccination, but finally decided to get vaccinated, because of a job abroad.[2] He was hospitalised in mid-November 2021 with COVID-19 and put on a ventilator.[3] His condition became more serious in late November and he was transported from Sopron in Western Hungary to a hospital in the Hungarian capital Budapest.[4]
He died from COVID-19 in Budapest on 24 January 2022, at the age of 51.[5]

The lies that will be told to our children and grand children in schools about this fake pandemic and the bioweapon will be off the scale – but they will be expected to believe and regurgitate the lies in order to progress through the regimes system.

Same with the climate fakery.

MHRA Chief Executive Dr. June Raine, said: “Our approval of Nuvaxovid follows a rigorous review of the safety, quality and effectiveness of this vaccine, and expert advice from the government’s independent scientific advisory body, the Commission on Human Medicines.”

This from the people that brought you all the other “safe and effective” experimental drugs.

Large-scale COVID-19 vaccinations are currently underway in many countries in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we report, besides generation of neutralizing antibodies, consistent alterations in hemoglobin A1c, serum sodium and potassium levels, coagulation profiles, and renal functions in healthy volunteers after vaccination with an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Similar changes had also been reported in COVID-19 patients, suggesting that vaccination mimicked an infection. Single-cell mRNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) before and 28 days after the first inoculation also revealed consistent alterations in gene expression of many different immune cell types. Reduction of CD8+ T cells and increase in classic monocyte contents were exemplary. Moreover, scRNA-seq revealed increased NF-κB signaling and reduced type I interferon responses, which were confirmed by biological assays and also had been reported to occur after SARS-CoV-2 infection with aggravating symptoms. Altogether, our study recommends additional caution when vaccinating people with pre-existing clinical conditions, including diabetes, electrolyte imbalances, renal dysfunction, and coagulation disorders.

Probably the spike protein.

SARS–CoV–2 Spike Impairs DNA Damage Repair and Inhibits V(D)J Recombination In Vitro
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS–CoV–2) has led to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID–19) pandemic, severely affecting public health and the global economy. Adaptive immunity plays a crucial role in fighting against SARS–CoV–2 infection and directly influences the clinical outcomes of patients. Clinical studies have indicated that patients with severe COVID–19 exhibit delayed and weak adaptive immune responses; however, the mechanism by which SARS–CoV–2 impedes adaptive immunity remains unclear. Here, by using an in vitro cell line, we report that the SARS–CoV–2 spike protein significantly inhibits DNA damage repair, which is required for effective V(D)J recombination in adaptive immunity. Mechanistically, we found that the spike protein localizes in the nucleus and inhibits DNA damage repair by impeding key DNA repair protein BRCA1 and 53BP1 recruitment to the damage site. Our findings reveal a potential molecular mechanism by which the spike protein might impede adaptive immunity and underscore the potential side effects of full-length spike-based vaccines.
