Moderna has said it expects the pandemic to end this year but forecast that a seasonal booster shot will be needed in the autumn to protect people from “breakthrough” Covid-19 infections.
莫德纳(Moderna)表示,该公司预计新冠大流行将在今年结束,但预测需要在今年秋季接种季节性加强针,以保护人们免受“突破性”新冠感染。
The US drugmaker said on Thursday that it is developing a new bivalent booster combining its existing Spikevax Covid-19 vaccine and an Omicron specific booster, which it believes would provide more durable protection against coronavirus variants than its existing jab.
这家美国制药商周四表示,它正在研发一种新的二价加强针,将其现有的Spikevax新冠疫苗和一款专门针对Omicron变种的加强针结合在一起,该公司认为这种加强针在预防新冠病毒变种方面将比现有疫苗提供更持久的保护力。
