CSIRO to cut up to 500 non-scientific roles as restructure of science agency continues

The CSIRO will cut up to 500 jobs in a wave of reforms the agency's staff union says is gutting the organisation's capacity to do research.

In an internal memo sent on Tuesday and subsequently published online by the CSIRO's Staff Association, chief executive Doug Hilton announced between 375 to 500 staff in non-research or support roles would be axed.

In the email, titled "An update on our priorities", Dr Hilton outlined cost-saving measures designed "to support CSIRO's financial stability" were needed to reduce expenditure by at least $100 million.

EGGS block covid spike proteins

Chicken Egg Yolk Antibodies (IgYs) block the binding of multiple SARS-CoV-2 spike protein variants to human ACE2

Abstract

The SARS-CoV-2 virus is still spreading worldwide, and there is an urgent need to effectively prevent and control this pandemic. This study evaluated the potential efficacy of Egg Yolk Antibodies (IgY) as a neutralizing agent against the SARS-CoV-2. We investigated the neutralizing effect of anti-spike-S1 IgYs on the SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus, as well as its inhibitory effect on the binding of the coronavirus spike protein mutants to human ACE2. Our results show that the anti-Spike-S1 IgYs showed significant neutralizing potency against SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus, various spike protein mutants, and even SARS-CoV in vitro. It might be a feasible tool for the prevention and control of ongoing COVID-19.
