Moderna’s potential vaccine to prevent Covid-19 produced neutralizing antibodies in all 45 patients in its early stage human trial, according to newly released data.

"These Phase 1 data demonstrate that vaccination with mRNA-1273 elicits a robust immune response across all dose levels and clearly support the choice of 100 µg in a prime and boost regimen as the optimal dose for the Phase 3 study," Moderna's chief medical officer, Tal Zaks, said in a statement. "We look forward to beginning our Phase 3 study of mRNA-1273 this month to demonstrate our vaccine's ability to significantly reduce the risk of COVID-19 disease.

Moderna said the vaccine was generally well tolerated, but more than half of the participants reported mild or moderate symptoms such as fatigue, muscle aches or pain at the injection site. The effort by Moderna is one of several working on a potential vaccine for Covid-19, which has infected more than 13 million people and killed at least 573,200 across the globe as of Tuesday, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University. More than 100 vaccines are under development globally, according to the World Health Organization.The trial will enroll 30,000 participants across 87 locations, according to ClinicalTrials.gov.

No ty

We can't seem to get good data on the virus for good decision-making, so like Obi-Wan Kenobi, a vaccine seems to be our only hope now.

Not to be outdone by Moderna, Drug companies cashing in on any glimmer of hope. Even if we had a vaccine today. If we vaccinated 5 mil a day how long to do the world? Virus damage is now and will be felt for years, Greed Greed & Conman Trump.

she looks very healthy

'Prevention is better than cure, and cheaper' Hyping some drug that has been tested on such a small scale is both ingenous and misleading The unwary might even buy shares on that basis and then lose their shirts 'Prevention is better than cure, and cheaper'

If your dimb enough to get this drug then dont be madd if we have to out you down like a dog later.

EVERY single person who has survived Covid has produced antibodies naturally via their immune system......... So what they are saying is simply give the vaccine to some sick people and then claim ANYBODY that survives is due to their vaccine Very convincing.......

This was already tweeted last night, how many times you going to tweet this?
