With more than 3.5 million cases of coronavirus worldwide, the race for a vaccine is underway. An expert explains why the 90 companies currently working towards a solution may need more time.
Three potential coronavirus COVID-19 vaccines are kept in a tray at Novavax labs in Rockville, Maryland. While testifying in front of a Senate committee on Tuesday, director of the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Dr. Anthony Fauci said that he is hopeful a vaccine will be entering advanced trials by late fall or early winter. At least eight potential coronavirus vaccines, Fauci confirmed, are now in development.
The timeline isn’t the only confusing aspect of the race for a cure. With more than 90 vaccines being explored across the globe, six of which have begun testing on humans, it’s difficult to keep up with the process. Yahoo Life spoke with Dr. Gregory Poland, head of the Mayo Clinic's Vaccine Research Group, to help unpack the process, and clarify why earning vaccine approval is deliberately difficult.
