lol I worked with one of them in a biomed company, the "we're really confident" bit is absolutely just bluster

Pretty sure they're throwing poo poo at the wall and praying that it works, at least that's how it was.

e: OTOH it's probably a good thing to make more of it just in case. It's largely paid for by investors anyway. It costs eye-watering sums to do trials.

The real issue IMO is going to be the pressure for the trials to pass. If they fail, and was only building one factory in advance that's going to look real bad - even if the vaccine is literal poison that's tomorrow's problem versus saying that vaccinations have started.

I have no idea how it would be in such a high-profile case, but from what I've seen the later-stage trials are kept pretty separated from the researchers precisely for that reason. It's on an entirely different level than publishing a spurious "vaccines cause autism" research paper which has very little scrutiny in comparison. It would have to be government pressure that I'd be more worried about, if anything.

e: I'm not even sure if the later trials are being done in the UK, it's not necessarily the case.

Trust me, there are lots of little ways to disappear inconvenient clinical trial data if the sponsor is under pressure to produce a particular result -- and regulators are frustratingly bad at picking up on them. That said, it's still way more common for it to happen by accident or through incompetence than deliberately.

Fair enough, just saying it's not as easy as the researchers making up whatever false data they want, unlike with publishing a spurious paper.

e: I've only ever seen a few that were done by my former employer, so I'm sure you're more knowledgeable. That said it was by far the least bollocks part of the industry.

There was a trial recently where the sponsor straight up submitted the wrong data, regulators immediately sent it back and they can't resubmit for a year lol

Right, and that was the result.

Compared to that the PR information makes every pharmaceutical seem like panacea that will cure half a dozen things at once, just need to get the inconvenient testing out of the way, honest guv.

It's only ... six or seven years ago iirc that multiple phase 3 trials had to be expensively rerun because it turned out some investigators in Russia and China weren't just making up results, they were making up the existence of the patients entirely. But relative to most of what the industry does, you're right, it's generally fairly well intentioned.
