SORRENTO VALLEY, Calif. (KGTV) - Another San Diego-based company is moving forward on developing a vaccine for the coronavirus. Sorrento Therapeutics is working on several projects that they believe could lead to viable vaccines or treatments. One of them was announced on Monday. Sorrento Therapeutics said it was partnering with Boston-based Smartpharm to create a gene-encoded antibody vaccine. “In the effort to more quickly resolve the global COVID-19 crisis, our company has initiated a rapidly accelerated program for the identification of potent neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus antigens that may be used for either treatment or prophylaxis,” said Henry Ji, CEO of Sorrento Therapeutics. Sorrento Therapeutics is also working on another vaccine called the I-Cell project. That vaccine uses a decoy virus to activate a person’s immune system to train it to attack the real virus. It’s also developing a protein called COVIDTRAP that can bind to the receptors on the coronavirus, thus blocking it from being able to bind to the receptors on healthy human cells. If proven succesful, it could be used as a treatment or preventative measure.How long will it take for them to be ready?“That all depends on what leeway the FDA gives us,” said Mark Brunswick, Senior Vice President of Regulatory Affairs at Sorrento Therapeutics. If they can get fast tracked, he estimates they can start clinical trials in 2 months, as opposed to 9-12 months normally. 1483

Some jails across the country are treating inmates with controversial medication to help them battle their addictions. Critics argue the method is just trading one drug for another. But authorities, health officials and former inmates argue it’s a step in the right direction.For inmate Matthew Bardier, huge life changes led him to become an IV heroin user at the age of 23.“My father passed away,” Bardier recalls. “I ended up going through a separation, going through a divorce."Bardier had previously been a successful electrician.At the Franklin County Jail, two hours west of Boston, inmate Nelson Lacap has a similar story. After serving in the military, Lacap spent years fighting a different type of battle. His addiction to pain pills led to him to heroin.Both inmates have tried to beat addiction, but they ended up using again and finding their way into handcuffs.But now there's a new sense of hope, thanks to a combination of two drugs: Buprenorphine and Naloxone. One is an opioid that help cuts heroin cravings and give addicts a sense of calm.However, the medication is stirring controversy, with critics saying the patients aren’t quitting opioids all together. Instead, they argue it’s trading one drug for another, because Buprenorphine does give someone a high.Does it work?Sheriff Christopher Donelan with the Franklin County Sheriff says there have been benefits."Well, it's working here by some of our measuring standards,” says Sheriff Donelan. “For example, fewer discipline."The sheriff says experts need to study how patients do long-term and once they’re out of jail. But in his county, results look promising. His jail is one of about 30 prisons and jails nationwide that offers programs with the drugs."Think about the cost of an overdose, the cost of police, the EMS, the human cost, the cost of the emergency room,” says Sheriff Donelan. “You know, financially the community has a vested interest in us trying to deal with this issue."In two years, Franklin County has treated more than 200 inmates at a cost of about ,500 per inmate per year. Public and private insurance pays for the drug after patients are released from jail."They will not overdose, they will not die,” says They will be able to hold the job and take care of their family responsibilities."Former inmate George Ballentine can attest to the strain addicts put on the system."I've overdosed three times and been hospitalized and had to be NARCAN’ed 15 other times in a 2-year period," Ballentine recalls.Ballentine was prescribed Buprenorphine and Naloxon while in the Franklin County Jail, and he says he’s certain he'd be dead without the drugs. He's been free for four months and not using heroin.For recovering addicts, many of them say the once-a-day drugs amounts to the best chance they have at finding a path back to the life they loved, with the people they love."I'm an amazing father when I'm sober,” Ballentine says. “All that attention that goes to drugs goes to my kids, goes to myself and my family, and I just want to be back to the that person. And I believe it all starts now."The drug is not a simple fix. With the drugs comes counseling. The cost is covered by insurance, including Medicaid or state funded public health programs.  3269

Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson called the arrest of two black men at a Philadelphia store last week "reprehensible" and promised to take action so that it doesn't happen again.A store manager called the police because the two men were sitting in the store without placing an order. They were arrested for trespassing. The customers said they were waiting for another man to arrive. That person arrived at the store as they were being arrested.A Starbucks spokesperson says the manager in the store who called police is no longer working in that store, although she would not comment if she is working at another location.Johnson said there would be more training for staff on the issue of "unconscious bias.""I've been very focused on understanding what guidelines and what training ever let this happen," he said. "What happened was wrong and we will fix it."Johnson had already posted apologies on the company's website. He said the company wanted to "express our deepest apologies to the two men who were arrested with a goal of doing whatever we can to make things right." He said he hoped to meet with the two men in person to make a face-to-face apology. He was in Philadelphia on Monday when he conducted the interview on Good Morning America."Starbucks stands firmly against discrimination or racial profiling," he said on the blog post.Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney issued his own statement calling the incident "appears to exemplify what racial discrimination looks like in 2018." He added that the apology from Starbucks "is not enough" and that he would ask the Philadelphia Commission on Human Relations to examine the firm's policies and procedures and whether there should be bias training for its employees. And protests were taking place for Monday in Philadelphia by community residents who want the Starbucks store where the incident took place closed.Prosecutors in Philadelphia have announced there would be no charges pursued against the men. Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross defended his officers' actions in a statement on Facebook, saying that the officers were called to respond to a trespassing complaint and that they behaved properly and followed procedure.Starbucks has a history of advocating for racial equality. In 2015 in the face of protests nationwide about police shootings of black males, Starbucks launched what it called the "race together" effort, having employees write that term on coffee cups to try to engage customers to think and talk about racial issues.  2531

Southwest Airlines said Thursday that a fatal accident on one of its planes has scared some people away from booking flights on the airline.It reported seeing a "recent softness in bookings following the Flight 1380 accident." And it said that that weakness in bookings will result in slightly lower fare revenue in the second quarter as it tries to keep its planes full.A passenger died last week when a fan blade broke off the engine of a Boeing 737 and shrapnel shattered a window next to her. It is the first passenger fatality in the history of Southwest -- and the first commercial airline fatality in the United States in more than nine years."It remains a somber time for the Southwest family following the Flight 1380 accident, and our thoughts and prayers continue to be with the Riordan family, and all of our customers on the flight," said CEO Gary Kelly in the company's earnings statement.Related: Window seat or aisle?
