“The #Medicago technology was also widely seen as having great potential for creating both vaccines and antibody treatments for other conditions, including cancers, arthritis and multiple sclerosis.
But the plants used in production are a cousin of the #tobacco plant and were supplied by tobacco giant Phillip Morris, which was a minority (21 per cent) shareholder.
That came up against a nearly two-decades-old #WHO policy of not engaging with tobacco companies”

“Halperin of Dalhousie said Medicago's vaccine is produced in the leaf of a plant that's a relative of tobacco and that the plant itself acts as a "factory" for producing viral particles that are part of the vaccine.

"It's very novel technology," he said, adding that Covifenz is the first vaccine that uses this technology to fight COVID-19.”
