Ok, here's my thinking. Feel free to tell me where I may be wrong.

When the human body gets infected by a pathogen, you will make antibodies that can attach to multiple parts of that pathogen. I read some estimates that there could be a hundred different antibodies to certain pathogens.

Well, the current crop of vaccines causes the body to only make antibodies to the spike protein. Though effective against most strains of SARS-CoV-2 that are around now, this definitely puts selective pressure on the virus to let mutations of the spike protein survive. Even the J&J and Sputnik V vaccines used a modified adenovirus with spike proteins added to the virus.

Wouldn't it make more sense to give people an initial dose of Pfizer/Moderna/J&J/Sputnik V/Astra-Zeneca followed by a followup dose of a vaccine that has live virus in it? The first dose should develop an immune response strong enough that you shouldn't die from COVID-19, and the second dose gives the body a chance to develop antibodies to other parts of the virus other than the spike protein, providing better overall protection against future variants?

Hello r/softscience,

tl;dr On Monday, from 8-11 pm EST, photochemist, materials scientist, and Florida State University Professor, Dr. Ken Hanson (Google Scholar) will be the guest on Ask_a_Scientist_Gaming. He is there to drink, play NES games, and answer questions from the chat.

We are starting a new science outreach endeavor on Twitch.tv called Ask_a_Scientist_Gaming. Check out video of our previous streams with Quantum Chemist, Dr. Eugene DePrince, astrophysicist Dr. David Collins, and developmental psychologist Dr. Sara Hart.The post-COVID goal is to invite on one scientist a week to play games and talk science. Our schedule is currently sporadic but next Monday night the guest will be photochemist/materials scientist, Dr. Ken Hanson. His expertise is in light-matter interactions and spectroscopy. More generally, he is interested in understanding and harnessing the interaction between molecules/materials and light for application in solar cells, dyes and pigments, photosynthesis, catalysis, imaging, sensing, and more.

If you can’t make the live stream, feel free to leave your question in the comments and we will do our best to get them answered. Then follow-up with our youtube channel where we will post the video.

Hello r/softscience,

tl;dr On Monday from 8-11 pm EDT, developmental psychologist and Florida State University Professor, Dr. Sara Hart (Google Scholar) will be the guest on Ask_a_Scientist_Gaming. She is there to drink, play Mario, and answer questions from the chat.

We are starting a new science outreach endeavor on Twitch.tv called Ask_a_Scientist_Gaming. Check out video of our previous streams with Quantum Chemist, Dr. Eugene DePrince and astrophysicist Dr. David Collins.The post-COVID goal is to invite on one scientist a week to play games and talk science. Our schedule is currently sporadic but next Monday night the guest will be developmental psychologist, Dr. Sara Hart. Her research goal is to understand how and why children differ in their cognitive development, particular focused on reading and math development. She explores the role that both “nature” and “nurture” have on how we learn to read and do math and is excited to answer your questions on all things developmental psychology.

If you can’t make the live stream, feel free to leave your question in the comments and we will do our best to get them answered. Then followup with our youtube channel where we will post the video.

Hello r/softscience,

tl;dr On Monday from 8-11 pm EDT, astrophysicist and Florida State University Professor, Dr. David Collins (Google Scholar] will be the guest on Ask_a_Scientist_Gaming. He is there to drink, play Battletoads, and answer questions from the chat.

We are starting a new science outreach endeavor on Twitch.tv called Ask_a_Scientist_Gaming. Check out video of our inaugural stream with Quantum Chemist, Dr. Eugene DePrince.The post-COVID goal is to invite on one scientist a week to play games and talk science. Our schedule is currently sporadic but tomorrow night the guest will be astrophysicist Dr. David Collins. His research focuses on computer simulations of magnetic fields in outer space including the formation of stars from clouds of gas, their death in supernovae, and ways to measure the light from the Big Bang. In each of these systems, magnetic fields act on the gas dynamics like giant rubber bands, impacting the structures and velocity of the gas. He is excited to answer your questions about space and all things science.
