The US military has begun creating a vaccine aimed immediately against all types of coronavirus infection.
The Wall Street Journal reported on the promising universal drug. In total, about 20 scientific groups are working on the development of a pan-coronavirus vaccine in the world.
The developers believe that this approach will make it possible to find a way out of both the situation with the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and to get out of the “epidemic cycle.”
Considering that three new types of coronavirus have been identified over the past 18 years, a recurrence of a similar situation in the future cannot be ruled out.
With three new variants causing epidemics, the importance of developing a universal vaccine is timely.
It is possible that a universal drug will help prevent the spread of a new type of pathogen.
Creating such a vaccine could take several years of development.
It is known that the drug has already been tested on macaques and demonstrated high effectiveness against the original variant of coronavirus infection.
