Good news .. Corona vaccine is ready for clinical trials




China has begun the first phase of clinical trials on a vaccine for the emerging coronavirus, records show, as world scientists race to find a way to beat the deadly virus.

This comes after US health officials said last week that they had started an experiment to evaluate a possible vaccine in Seattle.

According to China's clinical trial record on March 17, Chinese efforts to produce a vaccine began on March 16, the same day the United States announced the start of trials, and is expected to continue until the end of the year.

" The volunteers for the first phase of the trials began to receive the vaccine," an employee involved in the government-funded project told France Press on Sunday.



He added that participants between the ages of 18 and 60 will be tested in 3 groups, where they will be given different doses.

All of the people tested are residents of central China's Wuhan city, where the deadly virus first appeared late last year.

With the spread of the "Covid 19" epidemic and governments stepping up protection measures, pharmaceutical companies and research laboratories around the world are working hard to try to find a vaccine.

There are currently no vaccines or approved treatments for the new virus, which has so far killed more than 13,000 people worldwide.

The announcements of the vaccine experiments come amid escalating disagreement between the United States and China over the epidemic, as US President Donald Trump has angered Beijing by talking about the "Chinese virus."

And the Chinese government "Global Times" published an opinion piece last week saying that "developing a battle vaccine that China cannot afford to lose."



However, it is expected that it will take time to reach a vaccine, and the candidate American vaccine may take another year to 18 months, before it becomes available.

The remedial treatment, manufactured by the US-based Gilead Corporation, is in the final stages of clinical trials in Asia, and doctors in China said it has proven effective in fighting the disease.

But only randomized trials will allow scientists to know if this treatment is really beneficial, or whether patients will recover without it.

A 5.7-magnitude earthquake hits Utah, cuts the power to tens of thousands, and stops flights

A 5.7-magnitude earthquake struck the Salt Lake City area on Wednesday morning, cutting tens of thousands of electricity and suspending work at a Utah public health laboratory in the midst of the Corona virus pandemic. The airport said that flights to Salt Lake International Airport were diverted, departure was delayed, and terminals and terminals cleared so that engineers could inspect the facilities. The US Geological Survey said the quake was centered about 10 miles west of Salt Lake City, near Magna, starting at 7:09 am (9:09 am ET). People gathered in Salt Lake City city center after they left their buildings due to shaking and stayed outside. This is the state's strongest earthquake since 1992, when a 5.9-magnitude earthquake struck the St. George region, Utah's emergency management department said. The state’s Ministry of Health said that operations at the state’s public health laboratory were halted as the building was evaluated for damage. Th...

Panic in stores and markets on toilet paper and canned food

With the spread of the Corona virus around the world, shoppers are running around the markets, supermarkets and pharmacies either to fight the Corona virus or to prepare for possible quarantine. Early popular products were Clorox wipes and hand sanitizer. As with the spread of the virus in a large way, the demand has become steadily on toilet paper. Because of the panic, fear of the people, and the high turnout in stores, most stores have restricted what people can buy, as shoppers cannot purchase more than six antiseptic wipes, hand sanitizers, and hard wipes. But why is the toilet paper the last purchase without others? The behavior of people and their high demand for toilet paper has been explained by the fact that since people do not know how to interpret the virus, it raises the need to prepare in any way possible. Something they can buy they know they might need ... is toilet paper. With the spread of the epidemic around the world, people were seen rushing t...

The virus (Corona) will remain and will end in early April

It is not a corona virus, but an illusion of corona . It is an experiment with gas in an American biological laboratory, which was not controlled on 4/1/2020 in Afghanistan (the reason for signing the US cooperation agreement with the Taliban, after 40 years of conflicts, and Trump's fear that the truth will be revealed for personal purposes), (Italy's agreement with The United States), (Trump's request for the German doctor, and an agreement and temptation for money with the refusal of the German authorities because of the pressure, and the blackmail of the United States), (the fear of European countries due to the high rate of aging in them). It means that the countries in which the gas spread took place a while ago without anyone's knowledge, and the secrecy of the American authorities. Modern sarin gas used experiment in Syria, killing 1345 in two days. One of the most dangerous gases, it has no smell, taste or color. It converts from gas to liquid, a...
