Dr. Quay featured in CBS7 on New 2024 COVID Vaccine

This summer saw a rise in COVID-19 infections across the U.S., driven by a new variant. To address this, updated vaccines from Moderna and Pfizer have been approved by the FDA and will be available this fall. The CDC notes the virus has been evolving, making regular vaccinations important, especially for those with underlying health conditions.

Dr. Steven Quay explains that the virus mutates frequently, making it harder for the immune system to recognize it. Despite the increase in cases, the virus’s spread is slowing in some areas like Texas. Quay also points out that while the pandemic is officially over, COVID-19 will continue to circulate like the common cold.

Steven Quay is the founder of Seattle-based Atossa Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq: ATOS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapeutics and delivery methods for breast cancer and other breast conditions.

He received his M.D. and Ph.D. from The University of Michigan, was a postdoctoral fellow at MIT with Nobel Laureate H. Gobind Khorana, a resident at the Harvard-MGH Hospital, and was on the faculty of Stanford University School of Medicine. His contributions to medicine have been cited over 9,600 times. He has founded six startups, invented seven FDA-approved pharmaceuticals, and holds 87 US patents. Over 80 million people have benefited from the medicines he invented.

His current passion is the prevention of the two million yearly breast cancer cases worldwide.
