Fantastic find onAustralia fast tracking!


Because of the extraordinary urgency of the coronavirus pandemic, the CSIRO is fast-tracking vaccine testing as much as possible.

The federal government research agency is now conducting the pre-clinical vaccine trials to test the safety of the vaccine candidates on ferrets before they move on to human trials.

The human trials will then be done by Oxford University for the UK vaccine candidate and Inovio Pharmaceuticals for the US candidate, to determine whether the vaccine works.

Normally it takes up to two years to get to this stage of testing, a CSIRO spokesman said in a video media briefing.

‘Testing is expected to take about three months,’ a CSIRO spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia on Monday.

As I think about this, why doesn’t Inovio have a news release letting the work know that INO-4800 is being fast-tracked in Australia and 1 of 2? This is an opportunity Inovio should take.
