[Jan] Solidarity trial by WHO Flashcards

Q
What is it?
A
The WHO and its partners launched the SOLIDARITY trial, an international clinical trial that aims to generate robust data from around the world to find the most effective treatments for COVID-19.
It was designed to accelerate the process of conducting randomised clinical trials which normally take years to design, conduct, and see the results of.
The organisation also worked with the European Commission and multiple partners to launch the ACT Accelerator, to ensure that once a vaccine is available, it’s available to everyone — especially those who are at the greatest risk.
