Of Oxford plagues, and even older tears.
The sweep of his tragedies makes me a fan.
I can’t tell you this tale of woes. But Millican.

OXFORD | How the Vaccine Was Created
 |
| Status of vaccine candidates as of December 19. The Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine is expected to be the most affordable. Two were approved as of the date of the chart—Pfizer and Moderna. |
We are all waiting for the vaccine that will allow us to escape from the twilight zone of Covid-19 life.
While Americans have started to roll out the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, most of the world is looking to the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine.
It will be sold at cost in poorer countries and does not require ultra-low refrigeration, just normal refrigeration levels.
The Guardian has just produced an illuminating walk-through of the process by which the Oxford vaccine has been generated in double-quick time. It should be a source of pride for any Oxonian.
The Oxford vaccine is expected to be approved in the UK shortly after Christmas. Here is The Lancet's review of the trials so far.

GILLING CASTLE | Where I learned to love coats of arms
 |
| Gilling Castle, Great Hall. Photo by Damian Bramley, Courtesy Ampleforth College. |
November 28, 2020. The Great Hall at Gilling Castle was reconfigured for primary school pupils with specially sized furniture created by Robert Thompson, the "Mouseman" of Kilburn, Yorkshire.
Thompson was so called because all of his furniture at Ampleforth College since the time of the great Headmaster Paul Nevill has the distinctive carved mouse hiding somewhere on it.
When I ate my three meals a day in this dining room it was initially at the table at lower right, then the table at the rear, in the paneled alcove. The teacher at that time was at the head of the table.. I remember being immediately to the left of the teacher in both cases.
The coat of arms over the fireplace is that of the Fairfax family, cousins of the General Fairfax who tracked down Charles I in Oxford and turned him over to Cromwell's government for a trial. King Charles went to his death claiming the divine right to rule without Parliament. Subsequent monarchs have been less less vocal about their beliefs in their divine right to rule independently of Parliament.
On the other hand, the British people did not care for the idea of Oliver Cromwell's children replacing the royal princes. The Restoration under Charles II was welcomed.
More about all of this is on pp. 11-12 of Oxford College Arms.

OXFORD TRIALS | Regimen Has Average 70% Efficacy (Updated)
 |
| Race for the COVID-19 Vaccine. |
The first report was that the average efficacy of the vaccine is 70 percent. The major advantage of the vaccine is that it can be much more cheaply produced than the other two vaccines in play from Pfizer and Moderna.
(Update: However, a New York Times raises questions about controls over the trials, in a setback for proponents of the vaccine.)
The AstraZeneca "candidate" vaccine (ChAdOx1 nCoV-2019) was shown to be effective at preventing COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) and offers a high level of protection.
Phase 3 interim analysis including 131 Covid-19 cases indicates that the vaccine is 70 percent effective when combining data from two dosing regimens—90 percent in one and 62 percent in the other. The higher-efficacy regimen used a halved first dose and standard second dose. (Questions have been raised about the halved first dose, which appears to have been an unplanned underdose administered only to a group of subjects 55 and younger.)
Early indications are that the vaccine could reduce virus transmission, from an observed reduction in asymptomatic infections. There were no hospitalized or severe cases in anyone who received the vaccine. The vaccine was tested on a large safety database from over 24,000 volunteers from clinical trials in the UK, Brazil and South Africa, with follow up since April.
Crucially for the candidate vaccine, it can be easily administered in existing healthcare systems, stored at ‘fridge temperature’ (2-8 °C) and distributed using existing logistics. Also, large-scale manufacturing is ongoing in more than ten countries to support equitable global access.
For more information, go to the full announcement or the Oxford COVID-19 vaccine web hub or the COVID-19 trial website. (And the New York Times story previously cited.)

PHILIP PULLMAN | His Dark Materials Interview
 |
| Philip Pullman |
I thought it might be a nice idea to add (fictional) coats of arms of fictional Oxford colleges to the mix of arms covered in the book. I assembled a list of fictional colleges and their related real colleges.
Philip Pullman's colleges in His Dark Materials trilogy are prominent on the list. The New Yorker interview with him increased my interest in preparing coats of arms for his colleges. I spoke with two people who work for his publisher. They said it might be of interest to the author and publisher. I would like to pursue this.

UNIVERSITY COLLEGE | New Master, Baroness Amos

An alum of Univ, Sean Denniston of the Washington, D.C. branch of the Oxford University Society, tells me that the latest exciting development at the college is the expansion of its North Oxford space. The previous Master of Univ, Sir Ivor Crewe, says this is the largest expansion of the college since the 17th century. It is being built with attention to sustainability, biodiversity, and relationship to the local community in North Oxford.

CORONATION | Elizabeth I, November 17, 1558
 |
| Elizabeth I (regnat 1558-1603) |
Elizabeth 2 was a year older than Elizabeth I when she became Queen in 1952. (I was in England then and vividly remember watching the coronation on a tiny television.) Elizabeth II has stayed in the throne for 68 years, the only British monarch to have lived this long and to have held the crown for this long.
The Crown went to Elizabeth I at a time when England was debt-ridden because of Henry VIII’s spending, despite his having seized and sold so many monastic lands.
The country was deeply divided because of Henry VIII’s break with Rome, and then Mary I's attempt to restore Catholicism. A new problem was emerging with a dissenters disagreeing with the doctrines and example of both the Catholic Church and the Church of England. It would be 62 years from Elizabeth I’s ascension to the throne, and in the reign of James I of England (also titled James VI of Scotland), that the Pilgrims gave up on both England and Holland and set off to create the Plymouth colony in the New World. (Spoiler: The new regime in Massachusetts got to look a lot like the theocracy they left behind.)
 |
| Elizabeth I coat of arms |
She inspired her subjects with walking tours and encouraged portraits of herself in gorgeous regal attire and flattering songs about her. She started England's empire by chartering companies like the East India Company to colonize areas around the world. She was the first monarch to allow theaters to operate legally, opening up careers for dramatic writers of whom we are most grateful for William Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon.
Compared with James I and the ill-fated Charles I, who provoked Parliament with the doctrine of the Monarch’s Divine Right to Rule (until dissenters in Parliament raised an army, chased Charles down in Oxford University, and made clear how much they disagreed with this idea...), Elizabeth I was wise and tolerant. She was the head of the Church of England, but she gave Catholics freedom to worship. She was not a war hawk, but when she learned that Spain had sent an Armada of warships to England, she rode out to rally the troops and England prevailed.
