PREGUNTAS Y RESPUESTAS: ¿CÓMO SE ESTÁN CREANDO LAS VACUNAS CONTRA EL COVID?
¿Cómo es que las vacunas contra el COVID se están produciendo tan rápido?
Usually vaccine testing and production are done as separate steps, but because of the pandemic, vaccines are being developed on parallel tracks - meaning we’re still doing both steps, just at the same time.
¿Cómo se están probando las vacunas?
Ahora mismo se están probando varias vacunas contra el COVID. Todas pasan por más de un estudio clínico. Primero con un grupo pequeño de voluntarios, luego con cien o más, y finalmente con miles de ellos.
¿Cómo se aprobarán las vacunas?
No todas las versiones de la vacuna que pasan por los estudios clínicos llegarán a las fases finales de prueba y aprobación. Las que sí pasan, son evaluadas por expertos médicos que analizarán los resultados y los posibles efectos secundarios. La vacuna solo es aprobada si funciona y es segura.
Es entonces que llega a ti. Las vacunas que no pasan, se destruyen.
