"Experimental infection with Ad5, Ad36, and Ad37 produced excess adiposity or weight gain in animals."
Good riddance. That's the type of carrier virus that almost all the non-mRNA covid vaccines are using. Ad5 specifically is used by the Sputnik vaccine for the 2nd dose. The same vaccine that Brazilian authorities found to replicate and possibly infect others.

@pete I was thinking, because viral vector has been used in veterinary medicine for a while it might be safer than the completely novel mRNA ones.
Not so sure anymore.
On the other hand with people around me shedding the viral vector I’ll have it anyway...
@lucash_dev I won't be surprised if viral vector tech gets banned after someone creates a deadly disease with it by accident.
