Incorporating a coronavirus antigen into MMR vaccine to produce COVID-19 immunity in kids
create the antigen that stimulates immunity in this vaccine candidate
prefusion version of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein – the shape it is in on the surface of the virus before the virus infects a cell.
spike was locked into this form by changing six of its amino acids to prolines, an inflexible amino acid.

Measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and COVID-19: a systematic review - PMC
Among all the vaccines that children receive, the MMR vaccine is a one that has been considered in their routine immunization programs and is used for prevention from three viral diseases: mumps, measles and rubella [5-7]. Investigating different dimensions of the MMR vaccine in several studies have led to creation of a hypothesis that states this vaccine is associated with mild COVID-19 in children [6,8,9]. If the immunogenicity of this vaccine against COVID-19 is proven, it will be a big step forward to control this disease. Since this vaccine has been used for immunization in children for many years and to our knowledge, no major side effects have been reported so far, it can be tested alongside other ones being tested against this disease.

A modified mumps vaccine for COVID-19 - Sciworthy
In addition, children make up nearly 20% of COVID-19 cases, but a safe and effective mRNA vaccine for children does not yet exist.
The more antibodies you have, the easier it is for immune cells to recognize a virus and attack it.
Mice injected with the rMUV vaccine showed no signs of sickness

Sex and no sleep may be killing endangered quolls - BBC News
Some quolls they studied walked more than 10km (6.2 miles) in one night, which translates to nearly 40km in human distance, based on average stride length, the study said.

Environmental Factors Inducing Human Cancers - PMC
evidences that 80% of all cancers were caused by environmental factors.
Up to 93% of all human cancers are non-hereditary which is caused by interaction with environmental factors. Only 7% of all human cancers are hereditary (8).
A few of the genes are oncogenes or DNA repair genes, but most are tumor suppressor genes. Some tumor suppressors regulate transcription, while others operate in signal transduction pathways that are involved in regulating processes of cell birth, differentiation, and death.

The Importance of Ubiquitination and Deubiquitination in Cellular Reprogramming - PMC
Ubiquitination is a process through which ubiquitin molecules are attached to protein substrates for protein degradation. It is one of the most important posttranslational modifications (PTMs) regulating the stability and functional activity of proteins
