When is the Coronavirus vaccine be available?




Indeed, clinical trials of vaccines for the emerging coronavirus have started, while almost others will begin, but it remains difficult to determine when to release it.
Even if the trials go well, there are many obstacles before the vaccine becomes available in the world.

And all eyes of the world are installed towards the anticipated vaccine for the virus, which the WHO declared recently a pandemic, so it may protect people from the disease that has claimed the lives of thousands around the world.

According to the British newspaper "The Guardian", 35 companies and academic institutions in the world are competing to produce a vaccine that can ward off the threat of the virus, also known as "Covid 19".


The newspaper said that 4 of these institutions have started vaccine tests that they have developed, including the American company "Moderna", which started clinical trials in humans.

For its part, the French "Sanofi" group announced that the drug "Blacknell", the anti-malarial drug that it produces, has demonstrated "promising" results in treating patients with the emerging coronavirus.


And thanks to the great speed of the arrival of drugs to the stage of human tests, the Chinese efforts in tracking the sequence of genetic material for the virus "Covid 19".
China shared information with others about the sequence of genetic material in early January, which allowed researchers around the world to study the virus and how it invaded human cells and infected the disease.

The CEO of the Alliance for Epidemiological Innovations, Richard Hatchett, says the speed of "companies to produce an anti-coronavirus vaccine depends on their investment and an understanding of how to develop past vaccines against previous Corona viruses."


This alliance, an Oslo-based non-profit organization, is leading the effort to fund and coordinate efforts to develop a Coronavirus vaccine.

Coronaviruses, or corona family, caused two epidemics, the first in China between 2002 and 2003, known as the SARS virus that leads to acute respiratory syndrome, and corona virus or the Middle East syndrome years ago.


Anielis Smith, professor of infectious diseases at the London School of Tropical Medicine and Tropical Medicine, says that work to produce a vaccine is going very quickly, but that he will encounter many obstacles.
He added: "Like most vaccine specialists, I don't think it will be ready before 18 months."

mother's Day

Mother's Day is a celebration that appeared recently at the beginning of the twentieth century, and is celebrated in some countries to honor mothers and motherhood, the mother's association with their children, and the influence of mothers on society. This appeared in the desire of Western and European thinkers, after they found children in their societies neglecting their mothers and not giving their full care to them, so they wanted to make a day of the year to remind the children of their mothers. Later, the scope of the celebrants widened to become celebrated in many days and in various cities in the world, and most often it is celebrated in the month of March, April or May. The date of Mother’s Day differs from one country to another, for example in the Arab world it is the first day of the spring semester, that is March 21, while in Norway it is celebrated on February 2 ,in Argentina it is October 3, and South Africa celebrates it on May 1.  In the United St...

A WHO official spoke about the Corona vaccine, saying it would take at least a year to develop, stressing that "it will happen." "Corona not only affects the elderly and has a major impact on the middle-aged group," Reuters quoted the official as saying. He added: "The risk is that the disease will return to spread further after the sanitary lift is removed, so we need to constantly search for injuries." These statements come at a time when companies and countries are still racing to produce a vaccine for the "Covid-19" virus, as media reports indicate that more than 30 trials are currently under development. "The acceleration of this process is really exciting in terms of what we can do, based on th...

With Corona's outbreak, Trump is considering "difficult decision" announcement

    As the new Corona virus continues to claim lives in the United States, President Donald Trump revealed on Wednesday that he is considering a plan to stop trips to the most affected areas of the Corona virus in the United States. The United States is struggling to contain the deadly epidemic, which US sources have reported may take the lives of at least 100,000 people. "We certainly look at that, but once this step is taken, we are actually imposing restrictions on a much-needed industry," Trump said during a White House press briefing. The move would stop air traffic at airports in New York, New Orleans and Detroit, which are severely affected by the Corona virus. "We're looking at the whole thing," Trump said of halting domestic flights, which have already shrunk considerably, as a result of falling demand. 884 people have died of the corona virus emerging in the United States during the past 24 hours, in the highest daily toll recorded i...
