“China has a huge problem coming with their aging population!”
“you were saying?”
I should maybe learn Chinese lol
I’ve been learning for the past three years. :)
any resources you really recommend?
I’ve been mostly using this app https://www.superchinese.com/
interesting, thanks for the rec!
misread this as seances and was quite concerned
please don’t cause cancer (also paywalled:(
Cell is the most rigorous journal in the world. For a paper like this I’m sure they put the group through the ringer. It says they submitted it in October of last year and worked on revisions until May.
I don’t have access to journal subscriptions anymore but I’ll try to get creative for this one.
Oh, it’s question of how long they looked for, this stuff pops up later, and reverse aging claim doesn’t immediately imply absence of cancer, more like return of cognitive functions/learning/reflexes speed/blood cell counts/liver/kidney function, whatever. the claim can be true without it being consequences free, and still be pog enough
Yeah I guess I mean that’s an obvious concern and this is an unbelievably prestigious journal with an insanely high bar for publication. It’s unlikely that they didn’t adequately address that concern, it’s just impossible to know how without being able to read the paper.
So in another thread they made two male mice have a baby, and now theyre preventing ageing. Does China want to prevent twink death and breed the twinks?
immortal twink society
they will create a race of high elves.
Uncritical support for this
didn’t have mpreg danmei hyperstitions on my prophecy bingo card but i’m here for it
The implications of this are treatment for age-related dementia, arthritis, infertility, all kinds of medical problems that come along with aging.
This is a development from Chinese scientists, not from some some techbro bloodharvester who hooks offspring up to genital monitors and wants to exploit people forever while living in luxury.
FOXO3
Oh fuck, they made FOXDIE
neat can’t wait for only the rich to be able to afford immortality
If this was developed in the west that’s what I’d expect too. However, given that this research comes from China, it’s going to be serving the people.
Maybe within China, but they’re not going to be giving it away to other countries.
CoronaVac, also known as the Sinovac COVID-19 vaccine, was a whole inactivated virus COVID-19 vaccine developed by the Chinese company Sinovac Biotech.
CoronaVac is being used in vaccination campaigns in various countries in Asia, South America, Central America, and Eastern Europe. By April 2021, Sinovac had a production capacity of 2 billion doses per year. It was manufactured at several facilities in China, with overseas manufacture planned for Brazil in September 2021 and eventually Egypt and Hungary.
On 1 June 2021, the World Health Organization (WHO) validated the vaccine for emergency use. Sinovac has signed purchase agreements for 380 million doses from COVAX. As of July 2021, CoronaVac was the most widely used COVID-19 vaccine in the world, with 943 million doses delivered.
As of 14 October 2021, CoronaVac is the COVID-19 vaccine with the most doses administered worldwide.
It’s been 5 years since the worst global pandemic of the century, and you still don’t know that it’s thanks to China that billions of people were vaccinated in the global south?
