| Posted: 09 Dec 2020 07:01 AM PST I'm not trying to avoid giving my child the vaccine. I am pro vaccine. I just know there haven't been studies yet and it's a while out. Looking for a little hope. Edit: clarity. I was in a covid vax trial. Check my history and stop messaging me to say I'm a bad parent. I LOVE VACCINES. [link] [comments]  |
| Will the Covid vaccine go to people that have caught Covid already? Posted: 09 Dec 2020 12:33 AM PST Since the vaccine just gives your body a little piece (mRNA) of the virus would catching the actual virus do the same thing for your body? Making people that have caught Covid and survived immune to the virus since their body has already dealt with the virus and knows what to look for. I remember around June - July that nobody was sure if you became immune once you caught Covid. but with this vaccine and how it works, it would make sense that you would be immune after catching covid. So with that, has anyone heard of "Covid survivors" getting the vaccine? Or am I wrong in thinking you'd be immune after catching Covid? [link] [comments]  |
| Ask Anything Wednesday - Physics, Astronomy, Earth and Planetary Science Posted: 09 Dec 2020 07:00 AM PST Welcome to our weekly feature, Ask Anything Wednesday - this week we are focusing on Physics, Astronomy, Earth and Planetary Science Do you have a question within these topics you weren't sure was worth submitting? Is something a bit too speculative for a typical /r/AskScience post? No question is too big or small for AAW. In this thread you can ask any science-related question! Things like: "What would happen if...", "How will the future...", "If all the rules for 'X' were different...", "Why does my...". Asking Questions: Please post your question as a top-level response to this, and our team of panellists will be here to answer and discuss your questions. The other topic areas will appear in future Ask Anything Wednesdays, so if you have other questions not covered by this weeks theme please either hold on to it until those topics come around, or go and post over in our sister subreddit /r/AskScienceDiscussion , where every day is Ask Anything Wednesday! Off-theme questions in this post will be removed to try and keep the thread a manageable size for both our readers and panellists. Answering Questions: Please only answer a posted question if you are an expert in the field. The full guidelines for posting responses in AskScience can be found here. In short, this is a moderated subreddit, and responses which do not meet our quality guidelines will be removed. Remember, peer reviewed sources are always appreciated, and anecdotes are absolutely not appropriate. In general if your answer begins with 'I think', or 'I've heard', then it's not suitable for /r/AskScience. If you would like to become a member of the AskScience panel, please refer to the information provided here. Past AskAnythingWednesday posts can be found here. Ask away! [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 08 Dec 2020 11:11 PM PST I've heard that the zero-g feeling is because it's in free fall, it's just going so fast that it basically just misses the earth. I also know that the further you are from earth the less gravity you experience. I'm just wondering how much gravity you would feel 400km/~250 miles up [link] [comments]  |

| How do a sender and receiver synchronize when communicatiing via a rolling code? Posted: 09 Dec 2020 03:35 AM PST If my car key uses a rolling code, how does it make sure the car keeps the current code in sync and actually expects the code I'm sending? Shouldn't it be the case that after I press my key several times while it is out of signal range of the car the key is ahead by several codes in the sequence and the car would no longer acknowledge the code?

| How do scientists make synthetic mRNA? Posted: 08 Dec 2020 05:46 PM PST I've seen several articles stating that the new COVID-19 vaccines are using synthetic mRNA. I was able to look up where mRNA normally comes from, but I can't find how scientists recreate it. (My science education in biology is limited to a high school class, so please keep that in mind as you answer.) [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 08 Dec 2020 04:01 PM PST I don't know if anybody knows exactly how AlphaFold works on the inside but as I understand it (and I don't very well) it tries to predict the correct way a certain protein is folded. The deep learning I'm familiar with would suggest they have trained AlphaFold on a dataset with many of the problems and their solutions to check how close it is, which means they would need many proteins and their correct foldings. But isn't the problem they're trying to solve that right now it's very difficult to predict them? So how would they get a dataset like that if that's how it's trained? [link] [comments]  |
| Can one sample be used for both a CoVid-19 PCR test and a Antigen test? Posted: 08 Dec 2020 06:10 PM PST I just got a COVID 19 PCR test 2 hours ago, and I just got an email from the lab that my Antigen test was positive. I did not take an antigen test, I know it was a PCR as it looked just like the other PCR tests I have taken, and the tester told me they were out of antigen tests. Is it possible the lab ran an antigen test on the sample in the PCR test vial? Or was this an error on the tester's side. [link] [comments]  |

| How effective is Stage 1 of the Covid vaccine? Posted: 08 Dec 2020 11:45 AM PST This is not a question about the overall effectiveness of vaccines. I plan on getting the vaccine as soon as I'm allowed to. But how much protection will the first stage give me? Will I have to wait three months for the booster before I can hang out with friends again? [link] [comments]  |
| With a DNA based vaccine, would blood donors also pass on the immunity to COVID to recipients? Posted: 08 Dec 2020 07:31 PM PST Passive immunity in the case where antibodies being shared with another person through blood transfusion are temporary as the recipient doesn't produce their own antibodies. But with the COVID vaccine being DNA based, would people who receive blood from another with acquired immunity ALSO become immune, or would it be another case of passive immunity? [link] [comments]  |
| How do (coronavirus) mRNA vaccines function? Posted: 08 Dec 2020 08:05 PM PST The mRNA vaccine in the Pfizer vaccine codes for the spiky portion of the coronavirus particle. Your body recognizes it as mRNA and translates it to protein. At which point does your body know when to stop producing the pointy bits? Do you just become one pointy boi at the end?

| How do our planets stay in their orbits? Posted: 08 Dec 2020 11:55 AM PST So my very limited knowledge when it comes from science mostly comes from YouTube videos or shows I watch out of interest so please excuse me if I don't use any scientific technical terms. In addition English is not my first language so all I write might sound like utter nonsense. So the planets and therefore also earth circle around the sun in orbits and the reason for that is how I very, very loosely and very possibly wrongly understood it: I am very sorry if this is a stupid question?

| Does the speed of sound change based on the force of what created the sound? Posted: 08 Dec 2020 04:40 PM PST I know the speed of sound changes depending on the density of the fluid it is moving through, but does it also change based on what creates the sound? i.e the sound of a gun going off vs. a pin dropping on a cement floor; would the soundwave of the round detonation be moving faster, slower, or the same speed as the soundwave of the pin given they happen in the same density of air?

| Why don’t nuclear fuel bundles spontaneously undergo nuclear fission? Posted: 08 Dec 2020 07:40 PM PST As I understand it, a nuclear reactor starts when the control rods are raised. Neutrons are sometimes emitted from the radioactive isotopes in the fuel and if one strikes a fissile atom then a chain reaction is able to continue since the control rods aren't absorbing most of the neutrons. So let's say you just have a fuel bundle sitting on the ground outside of a nuclear reactor with nothing absorbing any neutrons. Why wouldn't the fission process spontaneous start up and release a massive amount of energy to the surroundings? [link] [comments]  |
