The first to receive the vaccine will be medical personnel, then the most endangered persons due to certain age or pathology, as well as order forces.
Later, it will be for everyone else with the first doses if they are ready in November or December”. The statement was made for La Repubblica Walter Riccardi, an Italian health ministry consultant who, along with colleagues from France, Germany and the Netherlands, has prepared the contract with the pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca.
The day before, the Moderna Inc company conducted several laboratory studies of its vaccine for COVID-19 in rats, gaining greater confidence that the risk of causing an even more serious disease will not increase, and also that a dose may be sufficient to provide protection against the new coronary. Previous research on a SARS virus with the new virus causing COVID-19 ) suggested that vaccines against this strain could have the aim of causing an even more serious disease when the vaccinated person is later exposed to pathogens, especially in individuals who do not produce enough immune response.
Scientists have seen this danger as an obstacle that must be overcome before vaccines can safely be tested on thousands of healthy people. While data released by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and the Modern Company offered some assurances, studies do not fully answer that question.
