U.S. signs agreement with AstraZeneca to develop, supply COVID-19 antibody treatment

(Reuters) – The U.S. government on Friday signed an agreement with AstraZeneca Plc <AZN.L> worth $486 million to develop and secure supplies of up to 100,000 doses of COVID-19 antibody treatment, a similar class of drugs that was used to treat President Donald Trump.

The U.S. health agency will provide the funding to AstraZeneca for two Phase 3 clinical trials under operation Warp Speed, which is aimed at speeding up treatments and vaccines for COVID-19.

One trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the experimental treatment to prevent infection for up to 12 months, in about 5,000 participants, while the second trial will evaluate post-exposure preventative and pre-emptive treatment in roughly 1,100 participants.

AstraZeneca said it plans to supply up to 100,000 doses starting towards the end of 2020 and the US Government can acquire up to an additional one million doses in 2021 under a separate agreement.

Your Good Health: Blood-donation bans improve confidence in safety of supply

October 7, 2020

| Good Health

dr_keith_roach_with_bkg.jpgDear Dr. Roach: I lived in England in 1985-1986, during the mad cow disease outbreak. Since then, I have been ineligible to give blood. It is one of the few questions they ask. This has been 35 years and, obviously, I don’t have and have never had the disease itself. Is this still a valid reason to rule me out as a blood donor?

B.R.

Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease was epidemic in the United Kingdom (and to a lesser extent, Ireland and France) from 1981 to 1996. By preventing blood donation from people who lived in the U.K. for more than six months during that time period, it is estimated that 90% of future vCJD could be prevented in the U.S. Incubation periods of 40 years have been reported for a similar disease, kuru, which is why the prohibition against blood donation remains. However, the absolute risk is very low, both

Roche blames supply chain issue for virus test kit delays

October 7, 2020
| No Comments
| Health News

Swiss pharmaceutical firm Roche apologised on Wednesday for a supply chain failure that could delay the processing of coronavirus and other diagnostic tests across Britain.

The delays come against a backdrop of concern about rising numbers of Covid-19 cases and pressure on the government to introduce tougher restrictions to curb the spread.

The state-run National Health Service (NHS) is already struggling with the pandemic’s impact on waiting times and access to services such as cancer treatment and elective surgery.

Roche blamed the delay on “unforeseen issues” in its move to a new national UK distribution centre in southeast England last month.

“We deeply regret that there has been a delay in the dispatch of some products and apologise to any of our customers who have been impacted,” it said in a statement.

“The teams at the National Distribution Centre are working exceptionally hard, day and night, to resolve this issue

UK’s COVID-19 Testing System Hit by Roche Supply Problems | World News

LONDON (Reuters) – Britain’s COVID-19 testing system, already struggling with a surge in new cases, was facing fresh disruption on Wednesday after Swiss pharmaceutical giant Roche

said problems at a new warehouse had delayed the dispatch of some products.

Roche is one of the main suppliers of diagnostic tests to Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) Test and Trace programme, which only days ago was hit by a technical glitch that delayed the reporting of 15,000 positive results.

Roche said the delay in dispatching some of its diagnostic products to the NHS was caused by unforeseen problems that arose during a switch from an old warehouse to a new UK distribution centre in September.

“We deeply regret that there has been a delay in the dispatch of some products and apologise to any of our customers who have been impacted,” Roche said in a statement.

“We are prioritising the dispatch of

Blockchain-backed food supply chain management solves the problem

October 6, 2020

| Health Food

Food supply chain management, or FSCM, has long been put forth as a low-hanging-fruit application in the enterprise blockchain space. Now, after years of pilots, the verdict is finally in: Blockchain-supported FSCM works perfectly. 

For innovation managers in food companies that haven’t yet dabbled, this is your chance. The big players have put in millions of dollars to prove the efficacy of the tech. All you have to do now is figure out the right application for your business.

Of course, there are still risks — and in this article I’ll provide ways to minimize them — but the opportunity is huge. Done right, you’ll reduce operational expenses, reach new markets, differentiate your products, and grow market share.

FSCM: The perfect enterprise blockchain use case?

Food supply chains check the “blockchain-can-fix-this” box, consisting of disparate and varied participants who would all benefit greatly from an improved ability to coordinate and

Another Covid-19 Wave Won’t Imperil the Nation’s Toilet Paper Supply, Whole Foods CEO Says

October 3, 2020

| Health Food

If Covid-19 infections are indeed headed for a third wave in the U.S., God forbid, grocery store shortages are unlikely to be the problem they were last spring. That’s according to John Mackey, co-founder and CEO of Whole Foods Market, who also shared his thoughts on grocery delivery and obesity when we spoke this past week. m

Mackey was promoting his new book on virtue in business, Conscious Leadership. Meanwhile, I’m trying to raise awareness among grocery CEOs for an issue facing people my age, or at the very least, me. Amid the boom in organic, ethical, and craft products, the back stories on shampoo bottles have grown so elaborate that the word “shampoo” has been shrunk to make room. My wife keeps upward of eight bottles of hair products in the shower, and without my glasses, I’m at daily risk of shampooing with conditioner. I asked Mackey to

The Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) Equal Employment Opportunity Activity Committee (EEOAC) hosted the 2nd annual Shattering the Silence: Mental Health Symposium Sept. 22 to raise awareness and provide resources regarding mental health, a topic that too often goes unaddressed.

The virtual symposium consisted of three sessions, including a keynote speaker and roundtable discussion.

“Mental health affects everyone, and it is especially important during these unprecedented times that we talk about how we can support one another, in the workplace, from home and online,” Capt. Jason Warner, NAVSUP WSS, deputy commander, aviation said in his opening remarks. “September is National Suicide Awareness Month, a matter the Department of Defense takes very seriously, and we thank the EEOAC committee for highlighting this today.”

Warner was followed by a resource session hosted by Toni Ann Teixeira, regional sexual assault response coordinator on the Department of the Navy’s Sexual
