H.E. @KagutaMuseveni the President meets the innovators behind NARO’s anti-tick vaccine.
Oscar Koech retweeted
Q&A session between H.E. @KagutaMuseveni and the vaccine scientist
H.E: The scientist come back and explain to the Ugandan how the vaccine protects the livestock? Does the cow now kill the tick?
The scientist (Dr. Swidiq Mugerwa): Your excellency, we got the protein from the tick its self. When you put the protein inform of a vaccine and inject it in the blood of the cow, the cow recognises it as a foreign body and produces soldiers/anti-bodies to fight against that protein. When the tick sucks blood that contains the soldiers/antibodies they kill the tick
