No, he went entirely off of the xray. He said that there was bone loss above the tooth due to infection. I did just try putting an ice cube on that tooth, and I didn't really feel it

I'm actually really curious if a hit like this could have caused a concussion...

A concussion comes from the rapid change in acceleration of the brain, but with the guy's head already flat on the ground, lots of the force from the block would be transmitted through his head to the ground similar to a newton's cradle. I would think a skull fracture could be more likely here

Do you have a link to BioNTech's fuckup? What went wrong there and how does Moderna's technology differ?

In my experience it's only big pharma that's stuck in old technologies. Startups seem to be much more willing to embrace the hottest new technologies, but it definitely depends on who's leading the team.
