Possibly don't even need vaccine.

I *assume* protection only lasts a day or two, and you have to keep using it to keep the protection up. Whereas a nasal vaccine would give long-lasting protection.

But I can't find any details on how long it lasts, which I'd love to see.

But still, that's amazing, and I want to know why I hadn't heard of it before!

Yes, that must be right. I don’t know how long a bottle lasts. But a useful hack! I am going to try it on public transport on the run-up to seeing my mother, but I’ll also stay vaxed and regard myself as very lucky indeed to be able to afford this.

If travelling all day Nasaleze Travel should be applied 2 to 3 times over the course of the day.

Thank you, I didn't see that.
