Gilead Sciences (NASDAQ:GILD) has been working with regulatory authorities to start additional expanded access programs for remdesivir, its investigational medicine for COVID-19, Chairman and CEO Daniel O'Day wrote on the company's website. Such programs allow hospitals or physicians to apply for emergency use of the treatment for multiple severely ill patients at a time. Even though the medicine isn't yet approved for use by any regulatory authorities, Gilead is taking the step of of expanding production to increase supply. "As a result we have reduced the end-to-end manufacturing timeline from approximately one year, to around six months," O'Day wrote. Its existing supply, including finished product and investigational medicine in final stages of production, amounts to 1.5M individual doses, which could equate to more than 140,000 treatment courses for patients. Gilead is providing all of its existing supply at no cost to treat patients with the most severe symptoms of COVID-19. Sets a goal of producing more than 500,000 treatment courses by October and more than 1M treatment courses by the end of the year. Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has recommended that in order to be prepared for COVID-19 becoming a seasonal occurrence, drug manufacturers should take the risk to ramp up production of therapeutics before phase 2 trials begin.
Gilead 有20billion Cash。。
是。大家也要记住和3m同城的良心企业Medtronic 公布了自己的呼吸机产品设计专利，以供其他公司如Tesla 和 Dyson等可以生产呼吸机
FOUCI 前天说了， 政府会先给钱生产， 不管有效没效， 只为争取万一有效的时间。
我买它股票以前亏了钱
它公布的是最低端的PB 560， 不知道是不是很有效。我大概看了它的网站， 感觉它公布的 就像20块钱的计算器， 一般高中要130 的。
我不懂， 瞎说。
他给Tesla 应该比公开网站的具体，或不一样。很难想象tesla生产20块钱的东西，musk还高调宣布和感谢Medtronic...
我不是说它20块钱， 我是比方20块的而计算器和130的计算器。
真是良心企业，赞一个！
我很多年前還親自handle 過八吋機台給medtronic....
是啊，怎么要这么久，还是加快速度以后……原本要一年。我觉得他们赶紧的吧。因为眼看南美快秋天了，南美的疫情起来了。然后半年以后北半球又秋天了，呃……
合成听说是比较困难，long lead time raw material，之前也没有量产。
那国内给意大利的是怎么做出来的？
