Societal.co is a Twitter like social network that champions free speech, individual liberty and the free flow of information online

Bedford, Bedfordshire ,UK., April 5, 2020 - A lot of people have been rattled into searching for alternative social media platforms as they become ever more uncomfortable with the way capitalist entities leverage control over the largest social networks in human history. Most do not like the way these companies buy and sell personal data, identities, and even behaviour!

They employ the smartest people on the planet to influence user decisions every day. But really, there’s no great excuse for using these platforms except for the fact that everyone else is using them.

Non-Profit Alternatives.

Enter Societal.co a community network where users can post public or private 500-character messages similar to Twitter.

The site was set up by Dean Jones former Central St Martins College of Art & Design postgraduate who said, “societal is part of a federated network. That means there is no one single entity that is in complete control. The basic idea is you join one instance and you can subscribe to people on your instance and to people in other instances. This develops into a large network of different communities all linked together into a huge distributed network of social connections which gives you a lot of freedom over your data.”

Jones hopes his digital platform will help create connections, not conflict. Jones further said, “I stated societal with the simple hope of connecting people from around the world and allowing people to share their thoughts with a big audience and societal.store to create wearable art that tells a story, inspires us, and reminds us that we are all connected.”

The Core Principles of the Societal movement are:

• Respect.
• Justice/Fairness.
• Honesty.
• Service/Giving Back/Contribution.
• Responsibility.
• Family.
• Community.

Jones is trying to shift the paradigm. In a web full of pseudo thought-leaders, Societal promises to be place that people from all walks of life can rely on and cater to those looking for fresh, new, authentic voices and believe wholeheartedly in community.

Five COVID-19 Vaccine Candidates in Preclinical Testing. Development Services to Enable Manufacture of cGMP Vaccine at Emergent BioSolutions have Started

South San Francisco, California, USA., April 2, 2020 - Vaxart, Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing oral recombinant vaccines that are administered by tablet rather than by injection, today announced it had produced five COVID-19 vaccine candidates for testing in its preclinical models.  Each of the COVID-19 vaccine constructs is based on a different coronavirus antigen combination, and Vaxart expects to advance the best performing vaccine to manufacturing for clinical trials.

Our scientists have been working tirelessly to develop these 5 different vaccine constructs, and this evaluation in our preclinical models will allow us to select the most potent candidate for clinical testing.“The effectiveness of Vaxart’s oral vaccine technology has been demonstrated in clinical trials.  Developing a vaccine to meet this current public health threat is very important to all of us at Vaxart,” said Sean Tucker, Ph.D., chief scientific officer of Vaxart. 

In January, Vaxart initiated a program to develop a COVID-19 vaccine based on its VAAST^TM platform.  On March 18, Vaxart announced that it had entered into an agreement with Emergent BioSolutions Inc. (“Emergent”) for development services in preparation for the cGMP production of the Vaxart vaccine.  Development services have started and, if Vaxart elects to proceed with cGMP manufacturing, Emergent is expected to produce bulk cGMP vaccine for use in a Phase 1 clinical study that Vaxart currently expects to initiate early in the second half of 2020. 
 

“We believe an oral vaccine administered using a room temperature-stable tablet would provide enormous logistical advantages in large vaccination campaigns,” said Wouter Latour, MD, chief executive officer of Vaxart Inc.  “Perhaps more importantly, we recently demonstrated that our oral H1 influenza vaccine protects against respiratory infection based on mucosal immunity, the first line of defense for mucosal viruses like influenza and this new coronavirus.  We believe this puts Vaxart in a unique position to develop an effective vaccine that protects the population from COVID-19.”

With air travel shutting down everywhere, Ecuador is the only country whose border has remained closed to its own nationals and residents, stranding thousands. The Frente Plurinacional por el Derecho al Retorno a Ecuador has brought together more than 600 stranded Ecuadorians to demand their right to return home.

Los Angeles, California, United States., April 1, 2020 - Amid emergency air travel restrictions, Ecuador is the only country whose border has remained closed even to its own nationals and residents. Thousands have been barred abroad with dwindling resources. Most of these stranded Ecuadorians are in United States and Mexico, many in Southern Florida and Mexico City.

  More than 3000 Ecuadorian citizens and residents travelling abroad demand their right to return, contacting the National Assembly’s Commission on Sovereignty, International Relations and Comprehensive Security. Last week, chartered flights from other nations arrived in Ecuador airports to repatriate their own citizens. These planes were ordered to arrive empty by the country’s executive branch, who have yet to agree on policies for the return of their stranded citizens who are not minors, handicapped, pregnant or elderly.

  This is a violation of international law. The International Declaration of Human Rights states in Article 13.2: "Everyone has the right to leave any country, including their own, and the right to return to their country.” Ecuador’s Office of the Ombudsman – charged with “the defense of the rights of the Ecuador’s inhabitants and Ecuadorians outside the country” – declared:

  “our firmest rejection of the flagrant violation of the rights of our Ecuadorian community abroad who have been stranded in transit or with an urgent need to return to their country, whose situation hangs between their defenselessness and the indifference shown by those whose obligation it is to attend to them directly, in person, diligently and effectively in foreign territory through our diplomatic corps and its network of assistants, especially in the context of a humanitarian crisis of the pandemic emergency activated throughout the world as a result of the spread of COVID-19.”

  The Ombudsman warns that the Ecuadorian government actions “may lead the State to neglect its international duties, if due to inaction, Ecuadorians face contagion or even death in places that are currently declared epidemiological hotspots.”

  The Ecuadorian government has rightly begun with priority repatriation of vulnerable groups. Yet more than two weeks after the cancellation of all flights they have yet to respond to the thousands of other Ecuadorians and residents stranded abroad.
