Good news! Get government largely out of the way and we will have effective vaccines probably within months or most likely latest within 1-2 years! Let the human trials begin!
115 vaccine candidates in such a short time! This is most like unprecedented in human history! Now we should be ready to defeat the common cold and influenza once and for all!
"As of 8 April 2020, the global COVID-19 vaccine R&D landscape includes 115 vaccine candidates (Fig. 1), of which 78 are confirmed as active and 37 are unconfirmed (development status cannot be determined from publicly available or proprietary information sources). Of the 78 confirmed active projects, 73 are currently at exploratory or preclinical stages. ... A striking feature of the vaccine development landscape for COVID-19 is the range of technology platforms being evaluated, including nucleic acid (DNA and RNA), virus-like particle, peptide, viral vector (replicating and non-replicating), recombinant protein, live attenuated virus and inactivated virus approaches"
