Finally End Of Covid-19 And Life Going Back To Normal As Breakthrough of Vaccine Announced

Covid-19 will be the first major case of rapid vaccine development having to surpass some time due to development in technology as compared to earlier days when vaccine development used to take so much time of upto years but now it has come down to mere months for the development. There are currently more than 100 research projects around the world working on the same thing, with 7 currently in clinical trials.

For a vaccine to be tested and approved it takes time and lots of animal trial before human trials begin in which vaccine gives someone immunity so that they don't get sick when they are exposed to the pathogens though you have to immunise enough people about 65% of the population so as to make sure no one get sick.

Researchers say that the SARS-CoV-2 pathogen is similar to coronaviruses which we have encountered before, including the SARS virus that struck in 2002. The first US clinical trials for a potential vaccine have begun in Seattle. Biotech company Moderna, has taken a piece of the genetic code for the pathogen's S protein, the part that's present in other coronaviruses, like SARS -- and fused it with fatty nanoparticles which can be injected into the body.

The race is on among researchers to develop coronavirus vaccines as the deadly disease shows no signs of stopping.

Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said that it would take at least a year and a half to have a vaccine for coronavirus.

But usually, a vaccine takes about five to 15 years to come to the market, according to Jon Andrus, an adjunct professor of global vaccinology and vaccine policy at the Milken Institute of Public Health at George Washington University.

According to the sources, a team of Italian scientists made an announcement regarding the successful development of a vaccine which has capacity to contain coronavirus and any of it’s mutations.

This is the month of May but the anti-virus has not been found to battle the novel virus but latest reports claim that a team of UK specialists are in the laboratories trying to come out with something substantial. 

The team claims that they are working on a vaccine, they also add that so far, it has produced positive results. This must be promising. 

The experts claim that the vaccine is nearly perfect since it has a 99.8% positive response to the infection. If the same results prevail, it will be out to help in weeks. 

Serology tests have been conducted on the Covid-19 patients and they are responding to gain immunity with the vaccine introduced in their system
