A COVID-19 vaccine candidate developed through British pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca and Oxford University may also succeed in the final line next month, but that doesn’t mean we’re going to get out of this terrible early pandemic, because further studies suggest that coronavirus would possibly be more confusing than we think.
AstraZeneca’s experimental vaccine, AZD1222, can obtain FDA approval for emergency use in September or October, according to Sunday’s Financial Times report. If approved, it will be because the drug meets all FDA requirements, but because President Donald Trump needs to accelerate the launch of at least one vaccine before the November presidential election.
The AstraZeneca vaccine is currently undergoing a large-scale Phase 3 human trial, which is expected to end in November at the very soon. If the FDA plans to include an emergency use authorization in October, it means that approval will be based on a verification of about 10,000 volunteers in the UK. In the U. S. , approval of a vaccine requires a test of more than 30,000 people.
Medical experts and vaccine advocates, adding bill Gates, have warned that the first batch of COVID-19 vaccines would not be “ideal” in terms of efficacy or availability. Given the advances in vaccine development, the world will not have a normal source of effective vaccines until next year.
“Therapeutic inventions will begin with the mortality rate, but the genuine ending will come from the spread of herbal infections and the vaccine will give us collective immunity,” Gates said in a previous interview earlier this month.
On Sunday, Trump announced that the FDA had approved the use of convalescent plasma as a remedy for COVID-19, but outdoor scientists temporarily raised questions about what has been described as a false impression of science.
Meanwhile, the medical network is still looking to fully perceive the virus itself for the chances of a new wave of resurgence of cases.
Over the weekend, a research organization in Hong Kong experienced the world’s first case of COVID-19 4 reinfection and partly months after the patient’s first diagnosis. ‘The report is concerned because it suggests that coronavirus immunity would possibly last only a while. “And this has implications for vaccines in disease progression,” warned the New York Times, which first reported the study.
Affordability is a challenge that requires a long-term solution. In addition to AstraZeneca’s AZD1222, a handful of COVID-19 vaccine candidates, adding Modern’s mNR-1273, Ad26. V2. Johnson’s S
A temporary solution is to obtain the first batch of government vaccine agreements. AstraZeneca, for example, has signed “wholesale” agreements with several countries, adding the United States, Mexico and Argentina, to obtain its vaccine at a consistent low dose load.
The U. S. government has not been able to do so. But it’s not the first time It has signed such agreements with seven pharmaceutical corporations to guarantee vaccines worth $10 to $37 according to dosage, depending on the company getting approval first.
However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimate suggests that the first batch of vaccines will not be enough to cover even the highest-risk population in the United States, and the government has not yet explained a plan on who will be vaccinated first. .
