Negotiations with two of world's largest pharma companies
one from India and other from US
IIBR not only research team progressed vaccine for virus
MigVax reported completing 1st phase of coronavirus vaccine
secured US$12m from OurCrowd to accelerate clinical trials
MigVax hopes to begin human trials of oral vaccine June 1
My comments : Well you have to hand it to the Israelis for setting up a strategic vaccine lab. The IIBR is obviously part of the military and part of their strategy to prepare for pandemics. Their country has tremendous intellectual and scientific capacity and I am not surprised that they can move at such speed to develop a corona virus vaccine.
For the sake of the entire world I hope the Israelis will make all the breakthroughs that are needed, move on to testing and production of this vaccine. Not only will it save lives but it can put the world back in order again.
