Oxford Coronavirus vaccine is the most promising Coronavirus vaccine. The latest findings were the result of a smaller trial intended to study the immune response to find out if the vaccine is safe and produces the intended effect. About 1000 volunteers were given the Oxford vaccine, which uses a chimpanzee cold virus to deliver the gene for the coronavirus spike protein to human cells. The modified virus can’t replicate, according to the latest reports.
The vaccine – called ChAdOx1nCoV-19 – is being developed at unprecedented speed.
