AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccine clinical trials to resume in the UK.

News

You’ll recall last week that clinical trials of the  COVID-19 vaccine candidate from Oxford / AstraZeneca were paused:

News now that AstraZeneca said it received notification from the UK’s Medicines Health Regulatory Authority that it was safe to resume clinical trials. 

While trials can now resume in the UK, elsewhere remains unclear; says AstraZeneca in a statement:

  • The Company will continue to work with health authorities across the world and be guided as to when other clinical trials can resume to provide the vaccine broadly, equitably and at no profit during this pandemic

Risk sentiment should be improved by this (partially) positive development.
