Petition to support Covax-19, Australian traditional low risk vaccine

Say it ain’t so. The Australian government appears to putting roadblocks in the way of an Australian vaccine. Does Scott Morrison and the TGA serve Australians or Pfizer?

” COVAX-19 is the first recombinant protein COVID-19 vaccine to be authorised anywhere in the world, beating Novavax to this key milestone. * “

The TGA should be abolished if it serves foreign corporate interests. That’s Scott Morrison’s call.

Even if you don’t want a vaccine at all, it’s in all our interests to develop local medical suppliers, real competition, and to give free citizens a free choice.

We call on the Australian Federal Government to provide all necessary support to Vaxine Pty Ltd to allow them to bring their Australian developed protein-based vaccine, COVAX-19, back to Australia. We draw your attention to the reasons why the Australian Government should support COVAX-19 vaccine: * COVAX-19 is the first recombinant protein COVID-19 vaccine to be authorised anywhere in the world, beating Novavax to this key milestone. * COVAX-19 has been developed on a more familiar, well-characterised platform – this addresses community apprehension regarding the unknown long-term safety of the mRNA and adenovirus vector vaccines. * COVAX-19 vaccine was developed by Australians, for the benefit of Australians – Australians should be entitled to now have access to it. * COVAX-19 has the potential to draw international attention to the capabilities of Australian science and to generate significant export revenues, provided Vaxine Pty Ltd is not forced by the Government’s actions to move overseas. * COVAX-19 is the only completely new vaccine successfully developed in Australia in the last 40 years – a landmark achievement that the government needs to applaud rather than ignore. * COVAX-19 is the first COVID-19 vaccine developed in the Southern hemisphere to achieve market authorisation.

We therefore ask the House to act in the interests of Australians and provide the necessary financial support and advance purchase commitments to Vaxine Pty Ltd to ensure the availability of COVAX-19 in Australia.
