The coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak was first reported on December 31, 2019, in Wuhan, China. The World Health Organization declared COVID-19 as pandemic on March 11, 2020. According to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Weekly Epidemiological Update by the World Health Organization, over 260 million cases and 5.2 million deaths due to coronavirus disease (COVID-19) were reported till November 29, 2021, across the globe.

The product development has noticed profound disruption, as workers have to adjust to remote work environments to decrease lab capacity because of COVID pandemic. Clinical trials are also being severely affected with disruptions in both new enrolment and in keeping record of patient therapies. According to the clinicaltrials.gov, as of April 2020, there were more than 2,850 trials and approximately 900,000 patients enrolled at trial sites in regions that were in partial or complete lockdown due to COVID-19 restrictions. The R&D labs are operating at below 50% of normal capacity. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2020 there were only 32 antibacterial treatments in clinical development, targeting the WHO’s list of priority pathogens and of these, only 6 fulfil at least one of the criteria as defined by WHO. WHO developed a list of priority pathogens for which antibiotics are urgently needed and regularly performs an analysis of the clinical and pre-clinical antibacterial pipelines during the COVID-19 pandemic. It also recently gathered experts to identify Target Product Profiles (TPPs) for the most essential and missing antibacterials.

WHO furthermore works with a variety of international partners to set up new mechanisms for driving investment and innovation in R&D.
