NEW YORK, Sept. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The pandemic has drastically reshaped the global social and economic landscape. Countries have shut down schools and businesses, restricted travel, postponed entertainment and sporting events, and are still encouraging the public to stay at home as much as possible. Responses from businesses were abundant as well; several biotechs, as well as medical device companies, have made announcements about vaccines that are being developed or testing kits entering production. As for vaccines, the Food and Drug Administration is expected to specify tough new standards for an emergency authorization of a potential vaccine that will make it difficult for any vaccine to be cleared before Election Day. According to the Washington Post, "The agency is issuing the guidance to boost transparency and public trust as it approaches the momentous decision of whether a prospective vaccine is safe and effective. The stakes are high: polls show the relentless politicization of the race to develop a vaccine is taking its toll." Optec International, Inc. (OTC: OPTI), Vystar Corp.(VYST) , TPT Global Tech, Inc.(TPTW) , Oragenics, Inc. , iBio Inc.
