‘No Israeli coronaivirus vaccine for me,’ Iranian journalist tweets By Ethel C. Fenig
As coronavirus panic spreads, scientists around the world are working to develop a vaccine to combat the disease. Along with scientists in other countries, scientists in Israel and the U.S. announced they’ve had some early successes in the development process, although obviously much more remains to be done before anything is ready for humans.
Amid fears of a looming pandemic, scientists in the US and across the globe are scrambling to develop vaccines — including in Israel, where one group of researchers says it could be ready in just three weeks and available for use within 90 days.
The scientists at the Galilee Research Institute, known as MIGAL, are adapting its vaccine against the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus, or IBV, to work for the novel coronavirus known as COVID-19, the Jerusalem Post reported.
“Congratulations to MIGAL on this exciting breakthrough. I am confident that there will be further rapid progress, enabling us to provide a needed response to the grave global COVID-19 threat,” said Ofir Akunis, Israel’s minister of science and technology. …
MIGAL CEO David Zigdon said the vaccine could “achieve safety approval in 90 days,” according to the Jerusalem Post.
“Given the urgent global need for a human coronavirus vaccine, we are doing everything we can to accelerate development,” he added.
Akunis said he has instructed his ministry’s director-general to speed up all approval processes.
However, they all admitted that there is still much work to be done before an effective vaccine is approved. Word of an effective vaccine would be happily embraced by most of the world. Most — not all. Not if any part of it involves…Israel. You know who these hate filled, destructive people are Here are the blunt feelings of one of them:
O-o-kay. If he wants to suffer — maybe even die — because of his hate, well, I’m good with that. His life, his decision and frankly, bye-bye; you won’t be missed.
Many others thought the same way, prompting Salih to pout about the force of the evil Israeli troll lobby. And even more powerful Israel Zionist actions!
