"The company is also winding down work of its COVID-19 and HIV vaccines, the latter of which just failed a phase 3 trial. The COVID shot was authorized during the pandemic but failed to gain a foothold in the market due to concerns about blood clots.
Moving forward, J&J plans to focus on pre-exposure prophylaxis to flu, COVID-19, RSV and HRV, the slides show.
The plan was presented to the infectious disease and vaccine team at the Wednesday town hall hosted by Heaton. Merson and Anthony Fernandez, worldwide vice president of vaccines and infectious diseases, contributed virtually."

"Title
Understanding Infection, Viral Exacerbation and Respiratory Symptoms at Admission- Longitudinal (UNIVERSAL) Study
Description
The global burden of hospital admissions due to respiratory viral illnesses is considerable across the lifespan, with treatment options such as vaccination being mainly supportive. Response to infection is variable, with some experiencing only mild symptoms that do not require admission, whilst others develop a severe response to infection and require higher level care. Rates of complications from respiratory viral infections appear comparable to influenza, suggesting greater attention needs to be focussed on non-influenza respiratory viral illness.
The recent pandemic highlighted the need to link clinical care with research for more rapid translation of new treatment discoveries. The majority of winter pressures facing NHS acute trusts are as a result of acute respiratory viral infection. A better understanding of the natural history of acute respiratory viral infection and recovery will facilitate improved clinical management with the potential to identify options for intervention in those at risk of more severe disease, with resultant health economic benefits."

Given the companies newly revealed status as a preferred partner of the UK gov, you have to expect they will be well aware of this document and any aspects relevant to SNG001
To follow on from wpa5's post below. The IPPS implementation report was published yesterday. Lots of interesting details in there. Interferons even get a brief mention - worth a read for investors
