to create A new council of nine distinguished scientists, we need to prepare for a next burst of the virus. That is reported in The Morning on Saturday. They may be made of the Flemish government of € 2.5 million to outsource with a study of the efficacy of a vaccine of the domestic production of surgical masks, and an analysis of the impact of the moment.

The scientific COVID council, Thursday night, for the first time, came to, composed of researchers from all Flemish universities and the Tropical Institute of Medicine. The most eye-catching names of its president, Jo Bury, general director of the Flemish Institute of Biotechnology, Johan Neyts, virologist is in order at the Rega institute (KU Leuven, belgium), and a micro-biologist, Herman Goossens (UAntwerpen). “The most pressing scientific questions can be asked, thanks to the 2.5 million euros of research,” says the chairman of the Bury. “If there is a subsequent spike of the COVID or 19, or the successor to the COVID-20 and the results will be. COVID-20, we expect next year. We want to have a new outbreak on a scientifically sound manner, be able to fight against it.”

the Impact of the moment

There have been extensive tests on existing drugs, in order to investigate whether or not they are active in the fight against the new corona virus. In practical terms, it is to be Remdesivir, which was deployed against ebola, and lopinavir/ritonavir, which is now being used to fight hiv / aids.

in addition, the council must, with mathematical models of the spread of the virus in the future. And most of all: what is the impact of the lockdownmaatregelen, and the completion of it.

in Addition, further research is needed into the rate of infection of the population, and to what extent people have the immunity to build up, and how long they would remain. Equally important is the examination of the production of surgical masks, for example, using a 3D printer, as well as beademingstoestellen. That must be another huge shortage of protective equipment in the healthcare industry.

finally, The Flemish government wants to do the research on the 1 June start.
