The only reason we all have headaches right now is when will this Corona epidemic go? It is generally expected that the pandemic will go away if the coronavirus vaccine is discovered. But will we all get the vaccine discovered? Or how long will it take for the vaccine to enter our bodies? Read on to find out more.
Invention: It usually takes several years for a vaccine to be approved after verification of safety and efficacy. But several vaccine companies are seeking approval for the coronavirus epidemic by inventing a vaccine in just 10 months. Three of these vaccines have been declared to be more than 90% effective in large-scale human trials. Of these, the Moderna vaccine in the United States has been claimed to be 94.5% effective after the third stage test. Russian-made Sputnik is 92%, and jointly owned by US and French pharmaceutical companies Pfizer and BoiNTech are 90% effective and 95% effective. Everyone is going to apply for final approval after the announcement of performance. However, a full report has not yet been released and the details have not been analyzed.
Boundaries: Many vaccine expect say that after the discovery of vaccines, it is known what they do. But the most important thing is to find the answers to what is not known.For example, how long will the body's immunity be maintained after vaccination? How safe is this vaccine for older, children and pregnant women? If these vaccines have any adverse effects on the human body, what will it be like? The answers to all these questions will be known.
Stock Market: But However, Pfizer and Moderna invented vaccines are in full swing in Europe and America, respectively. But soon after the announcement of the vaccine, the stock market price of Pfizer and BoiNTech raised by 3-6%. And the stock market has grown 9% of Moderna. And personally I think this increase is very big. Many claim that a political economy is working on who can bring the coronavirus vaccine first.
What the experts say? Therefore, after an overall analysis, experts are in a very careful position to approve these vaccines. Dr. John White, the chief medical officer of the United States said, "The question for any vaccine is how long it will last. Is it a few months? Or years? More importantly, those who were outside the trial were pregnant adults and young children who were not included in the trial. It remains to be seen how these will be included in the immunization program."
Vaccine supply: On the other hand, another big challenge will be to get the vaccine to the right quality everywhere. This is because the vaccine has to be kept at a certain temperature and transported everywhere. The Pfizer vaccine will stay good at -70 degrees Celsius. On the other hand, Moderna vaccine needs to be preserved - at a temperature of -20 degrees Celsius. And Sputnik has to be transported by maintaining a temperature of -8 to -18 degrees Celsius. The World Health Organisation has said that the issue of vaccine transport should be kept in mind. Professor Katherine O’Brien, head of immunization at the World Health Organisation said, "the nature of immunization is also important. We are really careful about how many doses of vaccine will be needed. And about its supply arrangements. Not modern says they need to store the vaccine at a temperature of -20 degrees Celsius. These are two-dose vaccines. And of course one dose of vaccine can be easily transported from two doses of vaccine."
Production capacity: Meanwhile, the productivity of vaccines that have been declared effective is not optimistic for the general public. Pfizer and BioNTech vaccine is 50 million doses this year. And will be able to produce 1.3 billion doses by 2021. Modern will be able to produce 20 million doses this year and 100 million doses by 2021. Most of the developed countries have bookings for Pfizer and BioNTech Moderna Vaccines. Russia's Sputnik will be able to produce 50 crores doses a year for vaccines and the outside world. In the meantime, Sputnik has already booked 120 crores doses of the vaccine from abroad.
Some important things: The World Health Organisation (WHO) is working with 156 countries to ensure that poor countries get vaccinated under the Co-vax Facility. The World Health Organisation has announced that it will provide 1 billion vaccines by 2021 to those underdeveloped and poor countries at risk.
But in the face of vaccine competition, developed countries have been able to book most of the potential vaccines in advance. As a result, vaccination of underdeveloped and poor countries is still at an uncertain stage.
Thank you so much for reading so long.
