Medicago:

植物ベースのCOVID-19ワクチンが、カナダ保健省によって承認されました。

規制当局は、木曜日に18〜64歳の成人に使用を許可する決定を発表。

カナダ保健省:

先週のNovavaxショットの承認に続いて、カナダで承認された6番目のワクチンです。

In what the biopharmaceutical company calls a world first, the vaccine from Quebec City-based Medicago uses plant-derived,

virus-like particles, which resemble the coronavirus behind COVID-19 but don’t contain its genetic material.

The shots also contain an adjuvant from British-American vaccine giant GlaxoSmithKline to help boost the immune response.

In December, the companies reported high efficacy levels against infection as they geared up for regulatory approval.
