[London Times] The new coronavirus vaccine being developed by the British pharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca, which has been shown to be effective, has the greatest advantage in that it can be stored at ordinary refrigerator temperatures (2 to 8 degrees Celsius). The cost is inexpensive at around $4.00 (about ¥420) per dose, which is about the same as a cup of coffee. The University of Oxford, the partner in the joint development of the vaccine, states that the vaccine can be easily distributed using existing medical facilities such as clinics and local pharmacies, which opens up avenues for mass distribution.

 

  [Washington Times] Monsef Sraoui, who oversees the distribution of vaccines for the new coronavirus in the U.S. White House, said on CNN television on December 22 that he expects the vaccination of the American people to begin as early as December 11. He also expects that the people’s lives will return to normal around May next year. The order of vaccination and the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine are being discussed at the Subcommittee on Countermeasures for Infectious Diseases of the Novel Coronavirus and the Subcommittee on Immunization and Vaccines of the Health Sciences Council.   **************************************   8NEST KITASHIRAKAWA is located right between Kyoto University and Kyoto University of Art and Design, a fully renovated share house for international exchange.
