Pharmaceutical company Pfizer announced positive early results on its COVID-19 vaccine trial and has proven to be 90% effective in preventing infection of the virus.

Pfizer and its collaborator BioNTech announced early Wednesday it plans to start the Food and Drug Administration approval process “within days” for its candidate vaccine, BNT162b2, after further analysis showed it’s 95% effective.

Newly released data found the candidate vaccine prevented 95% of infections from the virus that causes COVID-19 after evaluating 170 people who were infected, 162 of which took the placebo, the company said in a news release.

Pfizer to seek approval from FDA 'within days' after further analysis finds COVID-19 vaccine 95% effective

Pfizer to seek approval from FDA 'within days' after further analysis finds COVID-19 vaccine 95% effective Pfizer and BioNTech are expected to produce up to 50 million doses globally in 2020 and up to 1.3 billion doses by the end of 2021. The news comes days after Moderna, a Cambridge, Massachusetts-based biotechnology company, announced early Monday its candidate vaccine, mRNA-1273, developed in collaboration with the U.S. government, appeared to be 94.5% effective against COVID-19.

There were 10 severe cases of COVID-19 in the trial, with nine of them occurring in the placebo group.

According to the news release, the candidate vaccine was 94% effective in adults over 65 years of age, but maintained efficacy across gender, race and ethnicity demographics.

Researchers also found the vaccine was “well tolerated” across the 43,000 study participants who were enrolled with no serious safety concerns. The participants reported mild to moderate side effects, mostly fatigue and headache.

“The study results mark an important step in this historic eight-month journey to bring forward a vaccine capable of helping to end this devastating pandemic,” said Dr. Albert Bourla, Pfizer Chairman and CEO. “With hundreds of thousands of people around the globe infected every day, we urgently need to get a safe and effective vaccine to the world.”

Fact check: Pfizer received COVID-19 vaccine data after Election Day, released within days

Fact check: Pfizer received COVID-19 vaccine data after Election Day, released within days Claims that Pfizer withheld positive news about its COVID-19 vaccine until after Joe Biden became president-elect are false.Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist, claimed in a video posted to Facebook on Nov. 11 that Pfizer withheld the news until after Joe Biden secured enough electoral votes to become president-elect on Nov. 7.

By reaching this safety milestone, the companies say they plan to submit a request to the FDA for emergency use authorization “within days.”

Pfizer and BioNTech are expected to produce up to 50 million doses globally in 2020 and up to 1.3 billion doses by the end of 2021.

The news comes days after Moderna, a Cambridge, Massachusetts-based biotechnology company, announced early Monday its candidate vaccine, mRNA-1273, developed in collaboration with the U.S. government, appeared to be 94.5% effective against COVID-19.

Demand for dry ice: COVID vaccine candidate from Pfizer must be stored at minus 112, prompting a rush on dry ice

Both the Moderna and the Pfizer/BioNTech candidate vaccines depend on a technology called mRNA that uses the body's natural processes to turn cells into factories producing a protein found on the outside of the virus that causes COVID-19. The immune system then learns to recognize that protein and attack the virus if it appears.

Broncos DC Ed Donatell back home recovering after COVID-related hospitalization

Broncos DC Ed Donatell back home recovering after COVID-related hospitalization Broncos defensive coordinator Ed Donatell required hospitalization after contracting the coronavirus, according to the team. The second-year Denver DC was hospitalized last week but discharged Sunday. Donatell, 63, has been battling COVID-19 symptoms since Oct. 31 and has missed the past three games. Donatell, who is in his third stint with the franchise, is one of a few Broncos staffers to have contracted the virus. Running backs coach Curtis Modkins did so in October, and offensive line coach Mike Munchak was in the team’s COVID protocol.

While Pfizer has passed the safety milestone, Moderna will likely take longer to do this because it enrolled its trial participants at a slightly slower pace.

Both companies will have to show they can safely produce their vaccine at scale. Pfizer said it would provide the FDA with all necessary information in its emergency use application. It's not clear when Moderna will complete that process, but it is not expected to slow its application.

Once receiving each application, the FDA will review them, as will the independent Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee.

It's not known how long that process will take, but the regulatory agency is expected to issue an emergency use authorization for the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine before the end of the year.

Doctors and nurses want more data before championing vaccines to end the pandemic

Doctors and nurses want more data before championing vaccines to end the pandemic Health-care leaders say they are finding unexpected wariness among medical workers about taking the novel vaccines, based on concerns about President Trump’s politicization of the government’s reviews, their rapid development under Operation Warp Speed, and a lack of information about longer-term safety and effectiveness. Large health systems, medical societies and the federal government are launching an effort to persuade front-line health care providers to take novel vaccines that were developed, and are likely to be granted emergency approval, in record time.

The vote removes the last of the bar closure orders re-imposed by Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak in July due to increasing COVID-19 cases. Venues have to observe COVID-19 safety protocols and operate at half capacity, maintain social distancing between guests and employees and patrons must wear face coverings indoors. This is the first time Lucky Day will be open as a bar because it opened during the shutdown.
