1) So, this is the first & #39;serious& #39; preclinical data I have seen for an actual vaccine candidate. This one is an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine made by Sinovac. Seems to work in NHPs. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.17.046375v1.full.pdf">https://www.biorxiv.org/content/1...
2) Their vaccine is in Phase I trials in China already. The company was also the only company that made a SARS-classic vaccine back then and pushed it into Phase I trials (NIAID had one as well, but they are not a company). Looked good back then too: https://www.intmedpress.com/serveFile.cfm?sUID=bba35bb3-9126-4c66-ae0f-4e96b8291dea">https://www.intmedpress.com/serveFile...
3) Here is the link to their Phase I/II trial registration: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04352608?term=sinovac+covid19&draw=2&rank=1">https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/... This is old-fashioned technology but that would make it easy to do it in other plants that manufacture inactivated vaccines too. I am a fan.
