well astra zeneca said that the company's standard review process triggered the pause in the trial in the study to allow review of safety data so basically that the safety protocols went into effect and did what they're supposed to do if somebody gets sick everything stops the trial stops they investigate that astra zeneca said the company said in a statement that pausing the trial is a routine action that has to happen whenever there's an unexplained illness in one of the trials various health experts medical experts industry experts agree this doesn't mean the potential vaccine is dangerous or that the study that the vaccine is a failure just more so that the protocol is the process worked as it should the reported illness a type of viral infection and one of the female participants could be totally under under related and related i want to really underscore that fact but keep in mind astra zeneca is a multinational company pharmaceutical company that reported in 2019 more than $24000000000.00 in revenue it has many investors so it's within the company's interests obviously to play

now one has just hit a major hurdle and that's side effects now that company is a british drug maker astra zeneca now their long considered a leader and a cool 1000 vaccine raise and they were actually one of the 1st to start of phase 2 or 3 combine clinical trials for back in may and also had deals with the u.s. government and the european union to supply a millions of doses of its vaccine if once we got improved and very few companies actually in this vaccine race have gotten such a lucrative agreement which really shows our governments also viewed their drugs as only the most promising but since there's one patient experience a major i should say neurological side effect it has stopped for the time being any further clinical trials in the u.s. the trials in the u.k. though have resumed by brand given that their trials have included about $30000.00 participant it's not actually surprising that one of them would suffer from a serious side effect and in fact the hitting a pause button is actually a standard course of action during clinical trials like this one and it's not a certain signal

best add more than $1000000000.00 into astra zeneca so right now all eyes are on bio and tech and the during our that are also in phase 3 trials but in a race for a vaccine by companies and governments as you can see things can change very quickly brant r.t. correspondent sire tablature thank you for keeping us up to date. and for more on the race for a covert 19 vaccine let's bring in dr william schaffner a vaccine specialist with the vanderbilt university medical center dr schaffner it's always a pleasure to have you on we appreciate your expertise and i want to start with that leading vaccine came to astra zeneca as a scientist mentioned they were able to resume the trials in the u.k. but they are paused here in the u.s. now this may not be a new thing to happen but how important is it when they have to actually pause a trial especially amid a pandemic like this. well granted it's a. medical event. i should. well i don't know if it's this moment here. or the next one grace i think it's already. at. and here in the states. agencies are. oh oh oh next week. i have. to continue. and n

plans to add 50 participants each day after september 7th now astra zeneca also has the backing of us federal government and they're working with the u.s. government to produce billions of dollars says the vaccine once or authorize or i should say once it's approved now rivals. and pfizer by you and tech now these 2 their collaboration between the 2 they're also in face 3 trials and like seneca they also have u.s. federal funding now the only difference between these 3 is that astra zeneca has already has participants but both modernity and pfizer by and take there's still just in the process of unrolling their stated goals of $30000.00 volunteers each so even though both companies have trials and rolled in other countries they need to have those 30000 volunteers here in the u.s. in order for it to be approved for use now that could change of course because in the trial of this size researchers say they'll know if a vaccine is effective after a few as many as $150.00 to $175.00 infections about additional into the u.s. both china and russia say they're going to start releasing vaccine

to have you on we appreciate your expertise and i want to start with that leading vaccine came to astra zeneca as a scientist mentioned they were able to resume the trials in the u.k. but they are paused here in the u.s. now this may not be a new thing to happen but how important is it when they have to actually pause a trial especially amid a pandemic like this. well granted it's a very. ever medical event. i should. think oh i don't know if it's this moment here. or the next. greece i think it's already scary at. and here in the states. agencies are a little bit. oh oh oh next week. i have. to continue. and now dr schaffner we've seen so many of these candidates move to phase 3 chopper trials it and i really want to know are we ahead of schedule when it comes to general vaccine development and does that cause a concert. oh i think we all know we need help. on reaching real sure. there are. 0 or effective just. to. really reach the front. and just now. we're all. united states we've got 330 we need actually some of the it's required to reasons. and there's a war was. extended. to googl

world's most advanced coronavirus vaccine trials has been put on hold after a participant fell ill astra zeneca the company behind the vaccine says it patient has potentially unexplained illness which will need further investigation and fire has forced thousands of migrants and refugees to feed their camp on the greek island of les paul's reports say some of the blazes was started deliberately to protest new imposed coronavirus restrictions in the camp which have now risen to 35 the cases. were less now speak to caroline when man who's the project coordinator for over 1000 nests lesbos she's with doctors without borders m.s.f. and is via skype from les paul sank you very much for speaking to us can you tell us 1st about the situation at the camp in les paul's right now the moira camp i know you've been there we've seen the latest pictures from the camp which looks like it's been destroyed by these fires what is a current situation as you know it. so in the this is exactly what we know right now as you probably know more it is you can predict but city of 3000 people who are at the moment

suffered information of the spine that's not being confirmed by astra zeneca and clearly on one level this this might be a bad development for the for the vaccine but it is only one person out of tens of thousands who have been child all over the world as you said and very many has been phase 3 of this is gone through phase one phase 2 already very many have had a very strong immune response and so there have been very many scientists coming out this morning and experts saying look it is totally normal for a vaccine child to have to be halted in this way it isn't the 1st time that this vaccine trial has had to be halted it was at wholesale in the year as well and the point that they make is that you can't confuse what they call correlation with causation which is to say that just because 2 things have happened once someone's been given the vaccine and has gotten ill it doesn't necessarily follow that the vaccine has been the cause of their illness a lot of these people are old that they may have underlying health conditions already there was one case that some scientists have been tal

halted in the same sort of way and so the general view among among the scientific community is that astra zeneca in oxford will not go through all that they are there to do diligence around this will try to investigate the underlying health conditions of this person share all their findings with the 5 other vaccine manufacturers who are also in phase 3 so they all know exactly what's going on and the hope is that in 2 or 3 weeks time they'll be able to start again obviously the best case scenario is the vaccine becomes widely available having been bought in huge numbers in the u.k. and australia and elsewhere that it becomes widely available some part of the celtics chip at the moment there's no suggestion that this is necessarily going to derail that england is imposing tougher restrictions amid a steep rise in corona virus cases social gatherings of 6 or more people will be banned starting monday but the new rule want to ply to schools offices weddings funerals or organized team sports violators will be fined between $130.00 and $4000.00 in the 2 and a half 1000 new infections across th

you have this unique partnership between astra-zeneca and the eu where there has been agreement fromken a no-profit pledge to develop this through the entirety of the crisis. they will have no profit. they are going to develop each vaccine at an estimated cost of only about $2.90 which is pretty reasonable, and in exchange, as you have correctly said, the folks in brussels have struck a deal with the company where they are going to take above a certain level excess liability for this production for any kind of fallout, for adverse effects, for the emergency launch of this vaccine and then provide that backstop to the company. so this is a very powerful story, it's a very positive story and it really shows how the public/private partnership can get very creative during a time of crisis. neil: i'm intrigued by that. if i'm pfizer or sanofi or moderna i will look for the same type of thing, right? >> absolutely. it's really interesting because when you look at it from the eu venue, sanofi is the only other company that struck a deal with brussels to have another kind of emergency vaccin

dramatic and bad news at 1st glance but do bear in mind it isn't the 1st time the oxford university astra zeneca trial has been all says it happened once early this year it is now being rolled out in phase 3 as you said in your introduction to tens of thousands of people in some of the worst affected parts of the world and very many people who've had the vaccine have produced a strong immune response to corona virus as a result and so even common sense would tell you that except against that the fact that one person has suffered an illness may not be the end of a vaccine and any number of scientists today have been at pains to point out that just because somebody is vaccinated and then becomes ill by no means does that mean that the vaccine caused the illness they that they point to it a similar vaccine shot in 2009 when someone was given a vaccine and then delegate it turned out that she had been brain tumour which will kill to nothing to do with the vaccine itself i'm not to be altered in the same sort of way and so the general view among among the scientific community is that astra zen

based drug astra zeneca was poor after a participant fell ill the company says the whole hold is routine and the cause of the illness in a british volunteer is unexplained america's top infectious disease expert dr anthony fauci says it's a normal part of the process that's the reason why you have various phases of trials to determine if in fact these candidates are safe this particular candidate from the astra zeneca company had a serious adverse event which means you put the rest of the enrollment of individual volunteers on hold until you can work out precisely what went on you alert the other sites to see if they see anything similar to this or related to that and then you proceed cautiously as you go forward making sure you're on the alert for this type of an adverse event but it's really one of the safety valves that you have on a clinical trial such as this so it's unfortunate that it happened hopefully they'll work it out and be able to proceed along with the remainder of the trial but you don't know they need to investigate further. far warnings are in place along the entire u.s

conducted by astra zeneca they were halted earlier this week where they because one of the test subjects fell ill for whatever reason of a common problems in the trials of a vaccine and they've restarted now and again capered are they hurdles that are to be expected if we can have this with sputnik vane. but they are true of all clinical trials whether it's a vaccine or a new drug when you expand to large numbers in the oxford the astra zeneca vaccine has now been into i think 18000 people you expect to see occasional responses that give you cause for concern all those have to be investigated this one obviously was serious enough for the individual to be hospitalized but the trial has restarted and what this all emphasizes is how important is when you expand trials to larger numbers of individuals that you pay particular attention to any adverse events any effects that you don't expect to see because safety has to be the number one priority a group of scientists or read into the creators of the russian vaccine contest and in questioning the test so far pointing to data inconsistency as t

the experience that the produce from a so-called astra zeneca company could show where they live in the m people it is or they volunteered yeah under their particular trials. there were literally equal to the level of untoward use of those who had to call vary from there from cornell letters so. according to these if the nation i said in the level of confidence in order to start this proceed your sister said her own must be a great number of countries are trying to make that vaccine and there's trials of a rival vaccine in the u.k. from astra zeneca that were put on hold recently after a test subject fell thick but tests have now resumed of course should we expect similar setbacks when it comes to sputnik me. well if you're going to do the crusader. sort of plea certainty that you know in the russian case be being taken advantage of all the earlier. that they have with it if i see in them but. if you to me you know africa so we're on the basis of it and what if you what if you do think those that don't exist they have achieved. it different i mean they're dishonest the russian scientist

and let's start with the pause in the astra zeneca trial. does this happen in large scale trials and do during the pause will they determine whether this spinal cord problem was a direct result of the vaccine or potentially something else? >> that is exactly right, brooke. so this type of pause is not unusual. it is actually part of due diligence that has to occur. this is a reason why we do phase three trials to understand if there is rare but serious side effects that occur. it is much better that we find out during the trials than after the vaccine is released and powerbally it potentially it is not just one person, but we could look at hundreds of thousands of people who could have it so its the scientific process that a pause is being put on but this is a cautionary tale for anyone trying to predict when a vaccine is going to be approved. it should be humbling. because developing a vaccine is time intensive and it is difficult. having everything match-up so that we could launch this in record speed is extremely challenging. and we shoul
