Cishe unyaka owodwa ngemuva kokuba ubhadane lwe-coronavirus luqale, umuthi wokugoma we-COVID-19 (ekugcineni) uba ngokoqobo. NgoDisemba 11, 2020, umuthi wokugomela i-Pfizer we-COVID-19 uthole ukugunyazwa kokusetshenziswa okuphuthumayo yiFood and Drug Administration - umuthi wokugomela wokuqala we-COVID-19 onikezwe lesi simo.

I-FDA imemezele lezi zindaba ngemuva kwekomidi layo lokweluleka ngokugoma - eliqukethe ochwepheshe abazimele kubandakanya odokotela bezifo ezithathelwanayo kanye nodokotela besifo sezifo - bavotele abayi-17 kuya kwabangu-4 bevumela ukuncoma umuthi wokugoma we-Pfizer we-COVID-19 wokugunyazwa okuphuthumayo. Esitatimendeni esithunyelwe ngabezindaba, uKhomishani we-FDA uStephen M. Hahn, MD, uthe i-EUA imele "ingqophamlando yokulwa nalolu bhubhane olubhubhisayo oluthinte imindeni eminingi e-United States nasemhlabeni jikelele."

“Umsebenzi ongakhathali wokwakha umuthi wokugoma omusha wokuvikela le noveli, isifo esibi, futhi esisongela ukuphila ngesikhathi esisheshayo ngemva kokuvela kwaso kuwubufakazi bangempela bokuqanjwa kabusha kwesayensi nokusebenzisana komphakathi nezizimele emhlabeni wonke,” kuqhuba uDkt. Hahn.

Ukukhanya okuluhlaza okuvela ku-FDA komuthi wokugoma we-Pfizer we-COVID-19 kuza ngaphansi kwenyanga ngemuva kokuba inkampani ye-biopharmaceutical yabelane ngemininingwane ekhuthazayo evela esivivinyweni esikhulu somtholampilo sabantu abangaphezu kwama-43,000. Imiphumela ikhombise ukuthi umuthi wokugoma wePfizer - obandakanya imithamo emibili enikezwe amasonto amathathu ahlukene - "wawusebenza ngaphezu kwamaphesenti angama-90" ekuvikeleni umzimba ekuthelelekeni kwe-COVID-19 "ngaphandle kwezinkinga zokuphepha," ngokusho komthombo wezindaba.

Lapho umuthi wokugoma wePfizer usuthole i-EUA yawo, ukwabiwa kwamahhovisi odokotela nezinhlelo zokugoma kwaqala ngokushesha. Eqinisweni, abanye abantu banjalo kakade ukugonywa. NgoDisemba 14, imithamo yokuqala yomuthi wokugoma we-Pfizer we-COVID-19 yanikezwa abasebenzi bezokunakekelwa kwezempilo nabasebenza emakhaya asebekhulile, kubika i Izindaba ze-ABC. Phakathi kwabo kwakukhona uSandra Lindsay, R.N., umhlengikazi wokunakekelwa okubucayi eNorthwell Long Island Jewish Medical Center, owathola umuthi wokugoma ngesikhathi somcimbi osakazwa bukhoma noMbusi waseNew York u-Andrew Cuomo. "Ngifuna ukufaka ukuzethemba komphakathi ukuthi umuthi wokugoma uphephile," kusho uLindsay ngesikhathi kusakazwa bukhoma. "Ngizizwa nginethemba namuhla, [ngizizwa] ngikhululekile. Ngethemba ukuthi lokhu kuphawula ukuqala kokuphela kwesikhathi esibuhlungu kakhulu emlandweni wethu."

Akuwona wonke umuntu ozothola umuthi wokugoma we-COVID-19 ngokushesha okukhulu, noma kunjalo. Phakathi kokunikezwa kokuqala okulinganiselwe komgomo kanye nesidingo sokubeka phambili labo abanezici eziyingozi ze-COVID-19, amaketanga okuhlinzeka azodinga isikhathi esithile ukuze afinyelele isidingo. Lokho kusho ukuthi iningi lomphakathi jikelele cishe ngeke likwazi ukuthola umuthi wokugoma kuze kube sentwasahlobo yango-2021, ekuqaleni, umqondisi we-CDC uRobert Redfield, MD, uthe ngesikhathi kulalelwa ikomidi elincane leSenate Appropriations le-coronavirus.

Okwamanje, umuthi wokugoma we-COVID-19 kaModerna usuzungeza i-EUA yawo. I-FDA kulindeleke ukuthi ikhiphe ukuhlolwa kokugoma kweModerna ngoDisemba 15, bese kuthi ikomidi lokweluleka ngokugoma lale nhlangano - lona elisanda kubuyekeza umuthi wokugomela uPfizer - lizokwenza ukubuyekezwa kwalo ezinsukwini ezimbili kamuva ngoDisemba 17. IWashington Post imibiko. Uma ikomidi livota ngokugunyaza ukugoma kukaModerna njengoba kwenza ngePfizer, kuphephile ukulindela ukuthi i-FDA izoqhubekela phambili ne-EUA kaModerna futhi, ngokusho kwalo mbhalo.

Njengoba kujabulisa kakhulu ukuqala isahluko esisha kulolu bhubhane, ungakhohlwa ukuqhubeka ugqoke imaski yakho uzungeze abanye ngaphandle kwekhaya lakho, qhubeka nokuzijwayeza ukuziqhelelanisa nabantu, futhi njalo geza izandla zakho. Ngisho noma abantu sebeqalile ukugonywa, i-CDC ithi wonke lawa maqhinga azohlala ebalulekile ekuvikeleni abantu nasekunciphiseni ukubhebhetheka kwe-COVID-19.

Imininingwane ekule ndaba inembile njengesikhathi sokushicilela. Njengoba izibuyekezo ezimayelana ne-coronavirus COVID-19 ziqhubeka nokuvela, kungenzeka ukuthi eminye imininingwane nezincomo kule ndaba zishintshile selokhu kwashicilelwa okokuqala. Sikukhuthaza ukuthi uhlole njalo izinsiza ezifana ne-CDC, i-WHO, kanye nomnyango wezempilo womphakathi wendawo ukuze uthole imininingwane yakamuva nezincomo.
