La pandemia de Covid-2 ha cambiado muchas cosas. Se ha tornado todo hacia la virtualidad, ha aumentado la vida familiar pero ha cerrado otras como bares, restaurantes y colegios. Ha impactado de manera profunda la economía, esperándose un retorno lento hacia la normalidad. El descubrimiento de una vacuna pareciera ser la solución a todo esto. Hoy hay una carrera entre diversos laboratorios por la investigación de la vacuna y en esa carrera están implicados los políticos. La administración Trump ha impulsado tratamientos para luego retractarse. La FDA ha sido laxa y sugiere aprobar de manera rápida una vacuna. En Colombia se ha nombrado una comisión para visitar países y tratar de garantizar la adquisición de vacunas e incluso autorizar en el país los estudios fase 3.

It has a profound impact in economy, awaiting for a slow return to normality. The discovery of a vaccine seems to be the solution. Today there’s a race between various laboratories for investigation in vaccines and in this race politicians are implicated. Trump’s administration has impulsed some treatments for then going back. FDA has been lax and suggested approving a vaccine in a fast track. In Colombia a committee has been appointed for visiting countries and trying to guarantee acquisition of vaccines and even authorize phase 3 studies in our country.
