Restoring everyday civil life from the devastating pandemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can be only by the development of an efficient vaccine. As of April 12, 2022, 497,960,492 confirmed cases of COVID-19 were reported, including 6,181,850 lives having been lost worldwide and completely paralyzing the d global economy. Detection of a novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 in Wuhan, in December 2019, and the genetic sequence of SARS-CoV-2 that was published on January 11, 2020, leads to a global race, to prepare for a preventive vaccine. No single institution can develop a vaccine individually because there are many stages for developing and producing a successful vaccine. Since this virus threatens the health, the economy, and society the demand for a fast-track vaccine is understandable. This article tries to give an overview of vaccine 'candidates' development and clinical trials, and it mentions some challenges of using these vaccines for managing SARS-CoV-2.
从严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)引发的毁灭性大流行中恢复日常公民生活,只能依靠研发高效疫苗。截至2022年4月12日,全球报告了497960492例新冠肺炎确诊病例,其中6181850人死亡,全球经济完全陷入瘫痪。2019年12月在武汉检测到新型冠状病毒SARS-CoV-2,以及2020年1月11日公布的SARS-CoV-2基因序列,引发了一场全球竞赛,以研发预防性疫苗。没有任何一个机构能够单独研发出疫苗,因为成功研发和生产疫苗有许多阶段。由于这种病毒威胁着健康、经济和社会,对快速研发疫苗的需求是可以理解的。本文试图概述候选疫苗的研发和临床试验情况,并提及使用这些疫苗应对SARS-CoV-2的一些挑战。
