The Commission will draw up a portfolio of 10 potential COVID-19 therapeutics and by June 2021, identify the five most promising ones. It will organise matchmaking events for industrial actors involved in therapeutics to ensure enough production capacity and swift manufacturing. New authorisations, rolling reviews and joint procurement contracts will be up and running before the end of the year.
The therapeutics innovation booster, matchmaking events and preparatory action to support flexible manufacturing and access for COVID-19 therapeutics under the EU Fab project, will feed into the HERA, for which a proposal is due later in the year. The pilot project on access to health data will feed into the European Health Data Space proposal expected later this year.
Members of the College said:
Vice-President for Promoting our European Way of Life, Margaritis Schinas, said: “The situation in many intensive care units across the continent remains critical. We need to focus both on vaccines and therapeutics, as two powerful and complementary ways to combat COVID-19. But currently we have only one authorised medicine to treat COVID-19. By acting on better availability of medicines today, we are making sure patients receive the treatments they need while also preparing our future biomedical preparedness. A coordinated strategy on quick access to therapeutics will boost our strategic autonomy and contribute to a strong Health Union.”
Commissioner for Health and Food Safety, Stella Kyriakides, said: “Vaccinations save lives, but they cannot yet eradicate COVID-19. We need a strong push on treatments to limit the need for hospitalisation, speed up recovery times, and reduce mortality. Patients in Europe and across the world should have access to world-class COVID-19 medicines. This is why we have set a very clear goal: by October, we will develop and authorise three new effective COVID-19 therapeutics that can have the potential to change the course of the disease. We will do so by investing in research and innovation, the identification of new promising medicines, ramping up production capacity and supporting equitable access. Our Therapeutics Strategy is a strong European Health Union in action.”
Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth, Mariya Gabriel, said: “By increasing vaccine availability across Europe, more and more Europeans are now protected against COVID-19. In the meantime, the development of innovative medicines to treat coronavirus patients remains a priority when it comes to saving lives. Research and innovation is the first step to finding effective and safe therapeutics, which is why we are proposing to establish a new COVID-19 ‘therapeutics innovation booster' and will invest € 90 million in population studies and clinical trials.”
BBalls-N-CowTown ~ That fungus in India can be eliminated by drinking clean RAW Milk(the probiotics and helpful good gut bacteria consume the fungus/mold/viruses etc, and taking Monolaurin(Coconut Oil) in your diet. Keep your PH level high and no virus can live and no cancer either. Later I will provide a link to the latest research on Raw Milk....then you will see why the opponents use fear tactics to scare you away. For now, I am still One Post Monroe. Blessed Sunday to all. Things are looking much better for Cytodyn and soon Nader will be a hero worldwide. Great job by a hard fast laser focused CEO. Front cover page of Time Magazine and Forbes is coming.
oh yes, Leronlimab/CytoDyn tonight's interview Look at all the locals who acknowledge watching OneNewsPhilippines...ten times or more watch it but just don't give it a follow. So at least a half a million will be watching and spreading the word and buying stock in CYDY. Bye bye 3 dollars. ONE News is the premier news channel of Cignal TV
