Study Notes
- Vaccine development has three phases: exploratory research, clinical testing, and manufacturing.
- Under regular circumstances, vaccine development takes 15-20 years.
- During a pandemic, researchers employ numerous strategies to speed up the process.
- Different vaccine designs have their own pros and cons.
- The best way to speed up vaccine development is for many labs to work on different models simultaneously.
- Clinical testing is often the longest and most unpredictable stage of development.
- Researchers run multiple trials within one phase at the same time to speed up clinical testing.
- After a successful Phase III trial, a national regulatory authority approves safe vaccines for manufacturing.
- Manufacturing plans must be designed in parallel to research and testing.
- Advances in exploratory research and manufacturing could dramatically expedite vaccine production in the future.
