AstraZeneca has under-performed and under-delivered

AstraZeneca has under-performed and under-delivered Published 4 days ago In an update on vaccination dose delivery (17 March), European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen singled out AstraZeneca who had “unfortunately” under-produced and under-delivered. She blamed this performance as “painfully” reducing the speed of the EU’s vaccination campaign. Due to additional transparency provided by the recent export authorization scheme, the EU now has a clearer picture of the situation and is considering the use of additional powers. Von der Leyen has threatened to trigger Art 122, not used since the 1970s oil crisis. She said that this may be raised next week at the European Council of EU heads of government.

Covid resources: Developing countries at the mercy of their wealthier counterparts

Covid resources: Developing countries at the mercy of their wealthier counterparts 16 Mar 2021 Wealthier countries remain determined to keep essential Covid-19 resources to themselves. (Photo by Brenton Geach/Gallo Images via Getty Images) Wealthier countries remain determined to keep essential Covid-19 resources to themselves, rather than facilitating easier trade of such items with developing countries, despite talks at the World Trade Organisation (WTO). In October 2020, India and South Africa proposed a temporary intellectual property waiver on equipment, medication and vaccines related to the Covid-19 pandemic. They presented a possible way to help to combat Covid-19, while ensuring future growth in developing countries. But negotiations on 9 March between WTO members yielded no concessions from several developed countries.

Pandemic profits threaten global COVID-19 vaccination efforts

Several effective COVID-19 vaccines have been developed in rapid time, but that may have been the easy part. Are intellectual property protections and for-profit pharmaceutical companies now getting in the way of vaccinating the world s population? On the 12th of April 1955, the results of the largest clinical experiment in history were revealed. Called the Francis Field Trial, nearly two million children played a role in testing a novel polio vaccine that was found to be incredibly effective in preventing infection. That same day, an interview aired with Jonas Salk, lead researcher on the vaccine project. In the interview Salk was asked who owned the patent for the polio vaccine and he famously replied, “… the people I would say. There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?”
