- What is coronavirus?
Coronavirus is a new infectious disease which causes respiratory problems in most patients, which can lead to death in its severe stage. This disease is caused by a newly discovered coronavirus which first originated in China. Any kind of vaccine for the treatment of coronavirus has not been discovered yet. But with better treatment practices, the infected person can be cured of the virus.
- Is there any vaccine for the treatment of this virus?
There is no such vaccine discovered for the treatment of such viruses. When a new disease emerges, it takes quite a long time to discover its vaccine for further treatment.
- What is the status for the preparation of vaccines?
Research heads and scientists are working very hard on the development of a vaccine for such a hazardous disease, which is spreading vigorously throughout the world. There are almost 20 vaccines under development.
There are some other processes going on as well for the preparation of this vaccine
- The first human trial of a vaccine is being announced by a lab situated in the US city of Seattle by the end of this April.
- Australian scientists have shifted their research work by testing with two potential vaccines injected on ferrets, and soon after successful results, it will lead to the stage of human testing by the end of this April.
The tests are taking place under careful conditions, as in human bodies the doctors and scientists have discovered four types of coronavirus. We do not have a vaccine for any of them yet. Until then, we have to take upon ourselves to do the various methods for preventing the spread of the virus any further by staying at home safely, washing hands frequently, and keeping ourselves and our surrounding sanitized. Above all, if anyone notices any symptoms of this virus, they must keep themselves in self-isolation so that it can be prevented from being transmitted to others.
