The first participant in a clinical trial for a vaccine to protect against the new coronavirus will receive an experimental dose on Monday, according to a government official.The National Institutes of Health is funding the trial, which is taking place at the Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute in Seattle. The official who disclosed plans for the first participant spoke on condition of anonymity because the move has not been publicly announced.Public health officials say it will take a year to 18 months to fully validate any potential vaccine. Testing will begin with 45 young, healthy volunteers with different doses of shots co-developed by NIH and Moderna Inc. There’s no chance participants could get infected from the shots, because they don’t contain the virus itself. The goal is purely to check that the vaccines show no worrisome side effects, setting the stage for larger tests.Dozens of research groups around the world are racing to create a vaccine as COVID-19 cases continue to grow. Importantly, they’re pursuing different types of vaccines — shots developed from new technologies that not only are faster to produce than traditional inoculations but might prove more potent. Some researchers even aim for temporary vaccines, such as shots that might guard people’s health a month or two at a time while longer-lasting protection is developed.Also in the works: Inovio Pharmaceuticals aims to begin safety tests of its vaccine candidate next month in a few dozen volunteers at the University of Pennsylvania and a testing center in Kansas City, Missouri, followed by a similar study in China and South Korea.Even if initial safety tests go well, “you’re talking about a year to a year and a half” before any vaccine could be ready for widespread use, according to Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of NIH’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.That still would be a record-setting pace. But manufacturers know the wait — required because it takes additional studies of thousands of people to tell if a vaccine truly protects and does no harm — is hard for a frightened public.President Donald Trump has been pushing for swift action on a vaccine, saying in recent days that the work is “moving along very quickly” and he hopes to see a vaccine “relatively soon.”Today, there are no proven treatments. In China, scientists have been testing a combination of HIV drugs against the new coronavirus, as well as an experimental drug named remdesivir that was in development to fight Ebola. In the U.S., the University of Nebraska Medical Center also began testing remdesivir in some Americans who were found to have COVID-19 after being evacuated from a cruise ship in Japan.For most people, the new coronavirus causes only mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough. For some, especially older adults and people with existing health problems, it can cause more severe illness, including pneumonia. The worldwide outbreak has sickened more than 156,000 people and left more than 5,800 dead. The death toll in the United States is more than 50, while infections neared 3,000 across 49 states and the District of Columbia. The vast majority of people recover. According to the World Health Organization, people with mild illness recover in about two weeks, while those with more severe illness may take three weeks to six weeks to recover.___The Associated Press receives support for health and science coverage from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Department of Science Education.

Telluride is a small mountain town in Colorado that is famous for its world-class ski slopes.But soon, it might be known for its effort to fight the coronavirus."We were approached by a couple that lives in town, long time locals who happen to own a biomedical company," said Dr. Sharon Grundy, San Miguel County Public Health Officer"They were gracious and offered the testing for free to our entire county which is just an unheard-of opportunity," said Grace Franklin, Public Health Director, San Miguel CountyUnited Biomedical decided to launch its new coronavirus test in San Miguel County."This affects every area of the country and by creating a very clear and consistent cohort, like a small enough group that you can test everybody you can create the model that you can show how that would work," said Lou Reese who lives in Telluride with his wife Mei Mei Hu and their kids. They're also the co-CEOs of the company United Biomedical.The test developed by the company is different from the nasal and throat swabs you're used to knowing. "The test is a serum blood screening ELISA," said Reese."Antibodies for COVID-19, so a completely different test than the nasal swab," Grundy added.The test draws blood and analyzes if your immune system is fighting COVID-19. The test is similar to a test that detects HIV.The county says they expect to get test results in 48 hours. So far, the fastest they've gotten results from a swab test is five days.The plan is to test all of the county's 8,000 residents twice, 14 days apart. People sign up - but no one has to take it. Though the residents we talked to say they're eager to participate."This morning, I was able to fill out an application to take the test," said Kathleen Cole, who lives in Telluride."More information is always going to be helpful, and we'll let the experts take it from there," said John Neumann, who lives in Telluride.The health department says testing the county's entire population will help them make decisions about how to fight the virus best."By seeing how the disease is spreading in our county, or not, how can we start to lift and allow little pieces of normalcy come back in, in a way that will still protect our residents and minimize the burden on our medical facilities," said Franklin.Reese says after San Miguel County, he expects to scale the test across the country, though he wouldn't reveal exactly where."We went from, a week ago, ten thousand tests a week to now between one and two hundred thousand a week, and in the next month, we'll be at a million a day," said Reese. As the pandemic continues to happen, this is just another weapon in the fight against coronavirus. 2680

The family of a man who contracted COVID-19 on the Grand Princess and later died is suing Princess and Carnival Cruises, saying the companies should have known passengers on board were sick and should not have accepted more passengers.64-year-old Ronald Wong and his wife boarded the Grand Princess in March in San Francisco, Mexico. A month later, Wong died in a California hospital after testing positive for coronavirus.Wong's wife also contracted the virus, but later recovered.In the lawsuit, Wong's family claims the cruise line and its parent company should have known a passenger on the ship's previous voyage had tested positive for COVID-19.After reports emerged that several passengers had contracted the virus, the Grand Princess docked at the Port of Oakland on March 9. A total of 131 people aboard the ship tested positive for the coronavirus, and five later died. The lawsuit filed by Wong's family is one of roughly a dozen filed by passengers on the Grand Princess and their families.A spokesperson for Princess Cruises said the company does not comment on pending litigation. 1106
