35 vaccini candidati contro la Covid-19

Ci sarebbero 35 i vaccini candidati contro la Covid-19 in tutto il mondo. Qualche settimana fa erano dieci in meno. Tuttavia molti studi sono ancora in fase preclinica e i dettagli sono ancora poco chiari. La corsa all’oro del 2020, comunque, è contrassegnata anche a colpi mediatici piuttosto rilevanti dato che sempre più aziende annunciano lavori sul vaccino contro il nuovo coronavirus o, come nel caso dell’azienda americana Moderna (una delle prima ad essersi messa al lavoro) di essere vicino alla soluzione.

Vaccino per il coronavirus. Da Moderna (Usa) all’israeliana Migal, le aziende e i laboratori al lavoro

Dalla ricerca, ha spiegato ancora l’Istituto israeliano, è stato scoperto che «il coronavirus del pollame ha un’elevata somiglianza genetica con il Covid-19 umano e che utilizza lo stesso meccanismo di infezione, un fatto che aumenta la probabilità di ottenere un vaccino umano efficace in un periodo di tempo più breve». Ma, ahinoi, mancano ancora molte «settimane» per «completare i protocolli di sicurezza che permetteranno di effettuare poi il test in vivo».

Intanto, lunedì, Donald Trump ha tenuto una riunione alla Casa Bianca per discutere la risposta della sua Amministrazione al Covid-19. Seduti attorno a un tavolo ovale, come ha raccontato nel dettaglio il New Yorker, c’erano gli esperti sanitari dei Centri per il controllo e la prevenzione delle malattie, della Food and Drug Administration e dei National Institutes of Health, oltre a dirigenti farmaceutici di Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, Sanofi. Trump col suo modo di fare ha chiesto perentorio un vaccino entro pochi mesi. Ma la risposta di Anthony Fauci, direttore del National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, è stata una doccia fredda: «Un vaccino creato e testato in un anno non è un vaccino che si può usare». Fauci ha spiegato che l’orizzonte di attesa - prima di avere un vaccino - non può essere inferiore a un anno, un anno e mezzo. Insomma, prima del 2021 non se ne parla.

These nine companies are working on coronavirus treatments or vaccines — here’s where things stand

The list includes Gilead Sciences Inc. and Moderna Inc. along with smaller biotechs

In the U.S., the companies that are initiating development have received funding from two organizations: the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), which is a division of the Department of Health and Human Services, and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), a division of the National Institutes of Health. Some companies have received funding from Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), a global organization based in Oslo. Other companies are funding trials by themselves or through partnerships with other life sciences companies.
