As the world's scientists rush to find vaccines and therapeutics to treat

COVID-19, there's another group of scientists who are working just as hard to

protect the drugs and safely deliver them to patients and in addition - fight

counterfeiters.

"Once a COVID-19 drug is produced, it needs to be safely distributed throughout

the world and must survive the risks of freezing, heat abuse, sun (UV) damage,

tampering and counterfeiting," said Lyle Small, CTI's chief executive officer.

"The world is throwing money at beating the coronavirus in a compressed

timeline. This just amplifies the risk and CTI has simple solutions for all of

these related efficacy challenges," Small continued.

According to the World Health Organization, seven of the 10 top-selling drugs

in the world are damaged by freezing temperatures, including vaccines for

influenza and pneumonia.

"ATI is already working with dozens of pharmaceutical companies and we are

diligently launching this program to support all of their COVID-19 R&D and

launch efforts," said Randall Lane, chief executive officer of ATI.

CTI and ATI's goals are to protect at least 100 million units of drugs being

distributed to health care officials. The CTI donation has an equivalent value

of US$5 million.
