In episode 10 of the PharmSci Today podcast, Haseeb Ahmad, Managing Director, UK, Ireland & Nordics Novartis Pharmaceuticals and Country President Novartis UK and President of the ABPI is interviewed by Paul Bennett (CEO, RPS), Prof Gino Martini (Chief Scientist, RPS) and Sarah Cahill (Chief Pharmaceutical Officer's Clinical Fellow) about the Novartis response to COVID-19. In addition, Haseeb Ahmad also provides insight about the response to COVID-19 by the Pharmaceutical Industry. In this podcast, we will cover experimental vaccines and a few existing medicines that are approved for other indications. The RPS, Novartis and the ABPI want to be very clear that they are not endorsing use of these medicines and no treatments have been approved for COVID-19. Their intent is to explain to the society’s listeners the current status of the various clinical studies which are ongoing.
