He added that the \u201ctrials in Pakistan will start in about 10 days time\u201d.<br \/>\nEarlier this week it was reported that the falling COVID-19 infection numbers in Pakistan will not affect a Phase 3 clinical trial for a potential vaccine being developed by China\u2019s CanSino Biologics. The report had also said that trials will begin this month, according to officials running the trial.<br \/>\nPakistan\u2019s drug regulator last month gave the go-ahead for the country\u2019s first Phase 3 clinical trial for CanSino\u2019s candidate, Ad5-nCoV, which will be led by the government-run National Institute of Health (NIH) along with pharmaceutical company AJM \u2014 the local representative of CanSino.<br \/>\n\u201cWe are planning to launch the project on September 20, or at the latest within this month,\u201d said Hassan Abbas Zaheer, who is heading the trial for AJM.<br \/>\nThe Ad5-nCoV vaccine and placebo injections are due to be received in Pakistan next week. Daily positive cases in Pakistan peaked at more than 6,000 in June, but have since fallen sharply, with only 426 confirmed new cases detected on September 8 \u2014 taking its total to 299,659 and 6,359 deaths.<br \/>\nZaheer said the low positive rates did not indicate COVID-19 was no longer present in the country, and the potential for people vaccinated in the trial to be infected was still adequate for testing their immunity. \u201cWe feel people are still getting infected but not getting tested, so the virus is still there,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nPakistan, a country of more than 220 million people, has been testing between 20,000 to 30,000 daily.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pakistan will be participating in phase 3 trials of a Chinese developed vaccine
