More and more people are explaining the low number of infections in Hungary by the fact that there is no real epidemic, which is very dangerous, said virologist Ferenc Jakab, director of the János Szentágothai Research Center at the University of Pécs.
The field of epidemics is increasing, which can have serious consequences for an infection transmitted through the respiratory tract. It is enough to get on the bus and sniff without a single infected mask like this one and you will consider yourself more informed than the professionals, ”he said.
Also, vaccination is a terrible problem. A layman who is less familiar with the history of microbiology may be persuaded of the dangers of vaccines because he does not even think about how many deadly diseases we can fight due to vaccines alone.
Without vaccines, polio would still plague hundreds of thousands, and smallpox or measles would kill hundreds of thousands more. If the vaccine becomes strong, it is a serious danger for the entire population, not only because of the spread of Covid-19, the expert told Növekedés.hu.
As for vaccine development, he said there are currently 139 vaccine development projects underway around the world, 28 of which are already in clinical trials, including the latest human trial with 6 vaccines. Maybe vaccines can start in the first half of next year.
450 active ingredients have been tested in the Pécs laboratory, 5 of which are promising, and the Austrian biotech company Cebina is already planning a clinical trial. It is an active ingredient called azelastine, which is currently used as the base ingredient for a commonly used antihistamine nasal spray, and which may represent a new therapeutic drug for coronavirus infection.
