A total of 90 teams of scientists from around the world are working to develop a vaccine against the coronavirus. All of these have also reached different levels. However, only six of these teams have reached their target.
2 / 11
First of all, let's go to the place where the corona spread. Human trials of three vaccines are currently underway in China. 1. AD5-nCoV vaccine - Chinese company Casino Biologics has started testing since March 16.
3 / 11
It uses the adenovirus, a virus that causes infections in the eyes, respiratory tract, lungs, intestines and nervous system in the human body. China will inject these adenoviruses into the body and activate proteins in the cells that will fight the corona virus.
4 / 11
2. LV-SMENP-DC Vaccine - A vaccine developed by the Shenzhen Genoimmune Institute in China. The vaccine is based on the lentivirus, the virus responsible for HIV. The company has enlisted the help of cells that activate the immune system.
5 / 11
3. A third vaccine is being developed in Wuhan - At the Institute of Biological Products in Wuhan, China, one such vaccine is being developed. Which is formed from the inactive corona virus. Scientists in China have identified genes for this inactive coronavirus.
6 / 11
Experiment underway in England - 4. ChAdOx1 vaccine - ChAdOx1 vaccine is being developed at Oxford University. The first clinical trial in Europe began on April 23. Here, too, the virus itself is preparing to destroy the virus. However, the University of Oxford.
7 / 11
Vaccine development is underway in the United States - 5. mRNA-1273 Vaccine - Modern therapeutics, a biotechnology company based in Massachusetts, USA, is developing a vaccine that trains the human body's immune system to fight coronavirus.
8 / 11
For this, Modern has prepared to inject a weak and almost inactive virus into the human body. However, Modern has not used the corona virus for this. For this, scientists have created the genetic code of the corona. A small part of it is pierced with the help of a needle.
9 / 11
6. INO-4800 Vaccine - Inovio, a pharma company based in Pennsylvania, USA, is developing a type of vaccine that will inject DNA from a plasmid into a patient's cell. This allows the patient's body to fight the coronavirus.
10 / 11
Innovio is trying to cure this disease by altering a genetic structure. Because if the body is genetically capable of coping with this disease, such a threat will never arise in the future.
11 / 11
Even great scientists around the world are searching for a vaccine. However, there is no guarantee that the vaccine will work. Making a vaccine is not a big challenge, it is all about getting it to the masses
