A nasal vaccine that could finally curb Covid infections is one step closer to a reality after promising early trial results.
The inhaled vaccine, made by researchers in Georgia, successfully reduced the risk of symptomatic Covid infections by 86 percent for three months in people who received it as a booster - almost double the protection the mRNA boosters provide.
While still in early stages, it is an exciting development that could prove more effective than the booster doses administered as injections.
The nasal, or ‘mucosal’ vaccines are appealing for their ability to prime immune cells in the mucous membranes that line the nostril cavities and the mouth where the coronavirus first enters the body, and stop the virus in its tracks.
Nasal vaccines such as the one currently in development at Georgia-based startup Blue Lake Biotechnology Inc. concentrate the immune protection in the upper airways, positioning powerful antibodies right on the frontlines.
In their phase 1 trial starting in August 2021, researchers at Blue Lake Biotechnology included 72 participants ages 18 to 55 who had already received two doses of an mRNA vaccine as well as unvaccinated healthy people.
They plan to expand the sample size and will continue recruiting subjects through December.
The vaccine technology relies on a type of parainfluenza virus that has been encoded with Covid’s trademark spike protein to train the immune system to recognize and fight it off.
Once the vaccine contents are inhaled, little bits of the parainfluenza virus replicate inside the nasal cavity to such an extent that it triggers an immune response without actually getting the person sick.
Dr Biao He, founder and CEO of Blue Lake Biotechnology said: ‘We were pleasantly surprised to see indications of a protective effect in this Phase 1 trial.’

The vaccine scam continues...................
Thanks, I will wait awhile...
>> Dr Biao He...
Pass.
Now everyone in the room can enjoy the vaccine.
Aaaand ... I still do not trust any of these people.
People get colds.
I have had Covid twice and it’s as good as banished. First time was much worse but still not life threatening. Second time it was like a cold that lasted two days. No more shots pills or sprays for me. Everyone else can deal with it however they want.
Because they lie.
A lot.
If only we could trust anything the coming out of the worlds major Governments. Maybe the government agents who have rigged elections and manipulated all of us for the last couple of years could take a breather, make sure we have honest elections and let us try to put this thing back together before they get us all killed. Our government agencies have promoted a bunch of psychopaths who have no moral foundation. We have a bunch a people looking for click bait running the country right now. Thanks to these morons we have Joe Biden as President for god’s sake. Great Job CIA, FBI, NSA. You guys are killing it... and all of us. Great Job.
This would probably work better than mRNA, which doesn’t work, but it’s not really necessary.
It’ll probably rot your nasal passages.
Here. Take a SNORT of this!
Yup. Got to keep the rubes buying. Suppositories coming soon.
Still not sure why so many people under seventy years old are running headlong for any experimental vaccines that protects against a disease whose average age of death is 80 years old.
The ‘to protect gramma’ defense was obviously not true by midsummer 2021.
2x0 is still zero protection. 😏
Still will not do it but thanks for the offer!
I don’t get it. Get the covid virus, feel sick like you have a cold or the flu, feel lousy for a few days while taking vitamins and Ivermectin, get better, get on with your life like always.
It’s not like covid is frickin’ ebola. It’s just another flu and cold type virus the body needs to build immunity against.
Well Duhhh!
Ivermectin?
