Tetteys Jig 830 Posted September 12, 2020 Sounds really promising! If it is a different one, that's fine, it might take the heat off the Oxford one while it gets through its final stages.

Usually this would be appearing in the foreign press first, but nothing there either. Our press are so far behind, I managed to look at 10 UK reports today, 2 mentioned Oxford is no longer paused, but 8 said Oxford was paused until further notice. It was unpaused Saturday morning so it wasn’t that this happened after print deadlines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Well b back 3,139 Posted September 13, 2020 To follow on this was released to the Press 9 am Saturday morning by Jenner and AstraZeneca, maybe they just want it to go wrong. University of Oxford resumes vaccine trial The ongoing randomised controlled clinical trials of the Oxford coronavirus vaccine ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 will resume across all UK clinical trial sites. Globally some 18,000 individuals have received study vaccines as part of the trial. In large trials such as this, it is expected that some participants will become unwell and every case must be carefully evaluated to ensure careful assessment of safety. On Sunday [06/09/2020] our standard review process triggered a study pause to vaccination across all of our global trials to allow the review of safety data by an independent safety review committee, and the national regulators. All routine follow-up appointments continued as normal during this period. The independent review process has concluded and following the recommendations of both the independent safety review committee and the UK regulator, the MHRA, the trials will recommence in the UK. We cannot disclose medical information about the illness for reasons of participant confidentiality. We are committed to the safety of our participants and the highest standards of conduct in our studies and will continue to monitor safety closely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know it’s so strange, unless I am mistaken, it didn’t even sound he was getting the info 2nd hand it was like he was in the meeting. Even his numbers made sense, although keeping it to just 2 counties did sound strange. You would think if there were that many doses it would be in care homes all over the country. Another thing I now find strange is how they knew ‘ it was going to be authorised ‘. If it already has authorisation why not get it out there now, don’t see the relevance of you have to have the flu jab first. On the ITV Midlands news that night there was a guy from the QE that gave frightening figures about the QE at the moment, totally the opposite to the government figures. There is no trace of that either. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since this virus is so biased with who it kills, if we get all the old and vulnerable sorted by Christmas (1.5m shielding isn't there?) then it's not going to do much overwhelming of hospitals etc, even if millions of the rest of us caught it right?

Well b back 3,139 Posted September 14, 2020 Just to highlight the concern coming out of Oxford about the rising numbers, they estimate the daily infections are twice those the government are telling us. More on this tomorrow but the NY Times ( who seem to get a lot spot on ) are reporting that the U.K. have lost control of the virus and hinting the government are way out, either accidentally or deliberately. They are claiming there is a backlog of test results standing at 185,000 claiming these have been sent to Europe as our capacity is shot. Here is the app results.

Well b back 3,139 Posted September 15, 2020 UAE injecting the Chinese vaccine into their health workers. UAE approves vaccine for health workers The United Arab Emirates has given emergency permission for the use of a coronavirus vaccine in front-line workers. Stage three trials of the Chinese-made vaccine began in the country in July and are not yet complete. "The vaccine will be available to our first line of defense heroes who are at the highest risk of contracting the virus," the UAE's national emergency crisis and disaster management authority said on Twitter. The body said there had been no severe side effects from the vaccine, which has been tested in 31,000 volunteers. About 140 vaccines are in early development around the world, and around two dozen are now being tested on people in clinical trials. An even smaller number have reached advanced, or stage three, trials, and none has so far been proven to be completely safe and effective. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
