【冠状病毒19】和美国药剂公司合作研发 狮城百人接受疫苗实验
我国和美国药剂公司合作冠状病毒19疫苗研究，我国约100名年龄介于21岁至55岁的志愿者，已成为首批疫苗实验者。
首批疫苗实验者的数据将用于制定其他年龄层，包括接下来56岁至80岁人群的注射剂量。
此候选疫苗LUNAR-COV19，是由杜克-新加坡国立大学医学院和美国药剂公司Arcturus Therapeutics研发，而Arcturus在昨日（8月11日）发表文告时指出，已在本周开始进行该疫苗的临床试验。有关实验预计将持续到今年10月份，由新保集团医学研究单位进行。
当局表示，报名参与实验的人数超过250人，目前只有约100人被选中。
据《海峡时报》报导，LUNAR-COV19是采用可模拟冠状病毒的信用核糖核酸（mRNA），再注入体内后，会让人体产生类似冠病的蛋白质，刺激人体产生抗体和能攻击病毒的T细胞。
有关疫苗在低剂量和注射一次后，就能够为人体提供足够的抗体，因为疫苗所使用的信用核糖核酸会自动繁殖，为人体增加足够的抗体。
Arcturus总裁兼首席执行官约瑟夫佩恩（Joseph Payne）也表示，疫苗或许只注射一次就足够了。
