New COVID vaccines should halt variants in their tracks. But the US government hasn't committed resources just yet.
, called “The Future of COVID-19 vaccines,” the Biden administration brought together pharmaceutical leaders, disease researchers, and federal public health officials to figure out next steps. The aim of the summit, top White House advisors said, was to chart a roadmap to vaccines that could resist variants and halt, rather than blunt, coronavirus transmission.
However, the summit didn’t come with concrete proposals on how to accelerate the development of those tools. “In order to make that a reality, there’s a tremendous amount of work,” said Ashish Jha, the White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator. “This administration is fully committed to doing that work.”
However, because the latest Omicron variants emerged just a few months apart, it’s very possible that BA.4 and BA.5 will no longer be dominant by then. “I feel like we’re chasing a ghost,” Tal says.
