I thought some might find this interesting. I attach a screenshot of the Greek interlinear of the Septuagint verse for Daniel 12:11. Here's the Douay for that verse:
Most of us are familiar with the English translation as the sacrifice being "taken away." The Latin in the Vulgate is interesting. I don't know Latin beyond some basic vocabulary and knowing some prayers etc., so it would be interesting to hear from someone who can comment on that.
Anyway, the Greek Septuagint has a word for "taken "away" that is translated in the Apostolic Bible as παραλλάξϵως, "alteration change." So the translation of the verse reads: "And from the time of the alteration change of the perpetual sacrifice, and of the putting the abomination - a thousand two hundred ninety days." The sacrifice is not "taken away," but altered or changed.
This is consistent with Daniel 7:25, speaking of the "Antichrist" figure:
St. Jerome commented on this text from Daniel:
As I said, very interesting in light of the Novus Ordo changes in the holy sacrifice of the Mass.

Except those changes were made decades ago, not 1,290 days ago.
