Why patents on covid vaccines are so contentious
Here's a look at what patents do and why they matter:HOW DO DRUG PATENTS WORK?Patents reward innovation by preventing competitors from simply copying a company's discovery and launching a rival product. In the US, patents on medicines typically last 20 years from when they are filed, which is usually done as soon as a drugmaker thinks it has an important or lucrative drug.Because it often takes a decade to get a drug approved, companies typically end up with about a dozen years of competition-free sales.

Covid-19 vaccination because of concerns about blood clots that so far have affected a tiny proportion of those receiving shots, a person familiar with the matter said.The decision following a recommendation by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation may be announced as soon as Friday, according to the person. The precautionary measure comes just as authorities prepare to open up the inoculation program to the under 40s, after the over 40s where invited to book their first shots this week.The AstraZeneca vaccine has been the workhorse of the UK program to date, and the new strategy means that where supplies permit, people aged under 40 will be offered vaccines by Pfizer-BioNtech or Moderna Inc.
