“There isn’t a lot of room for major error here,” Hellerstein said. “We can’t just go headfirst down a less than optimal or even dangerous avenue. The last thing we want is for immunized people to get sick in a few months or a year, or get sicker than they would have. Whoever is paying for or approving the vaccine trials has the obligation to make sure that we look at the quality and durability of the T-cell response. And this would not delay the licensing process.”
And then, he notes the shortcuts they are doing and how your a TEST RABBIT in a global clinical trial:
Hellerstein said that he was motivated to write a review on the role of antibodies versus T-cells in protective immunity against SARS-Cov-2 when he heard from experts in vaccine development that companies would likely not be interested in testing anything beyond the antibody response. The reason given was that it would slow down the approval process or could even turn up problems with a vaccine. “That is why I wrote this review, honestly, because I was so upset by this response,” he said. “At this moment in history, how can we not want to know anything that might help us? We need to get beyond the narrow focus on antibodies and look at the breadth and durability of T-cells.”
“If you are going to approve a vaccine based on a laboratory marker, the key issue is, ‘What is its relationship to protective immunity?’ My view is that T-cells have correlated much better than antibodies with protective immunity against coronaviruses, including this coronavirus. And T- cells haven’t shown a parallel in COVID-19 to antibody-dependent enhancement that could make things worse, not better,” he said.
The effectiveness and durability of the first COVID-19 vaccines could impact, for years, the public’s already questioning attitude toward vaccines, he warned.
“It would be a public health and ‘trust-in-medicine’ nightmare, with potential repercussions for years — including a boost to anti-vaccine forces — if immune protection wears off or antibody-dependent enhancement develops and we face recurrent threats from COVID-19 among the immunized,” he wrote in his review article.
