Developing a vaccine to Sars-CoV-2 is seen as the fast way to a return to normal life. That’s why the health secretary, Matt Hancock, said the UK was “throwing everything at it”. However, while trials have been launched, ministers and their advisers have become noticeably more cautious in recent days. Earlier this week, England’s deputy chief medical officer said the words nobody wanted to hear: “We can’t be sure we will get a vaccine.” More than 30 years after scientists isolated HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, we have no vaccine. The dengue fever virus was identified in 1943, but the first vaccine was approved only last year. The fastest vaccine ever developed was for mumps. It took four years. Scientists have worked on coronavirus vaccines before, so they are not starting from scratch. Two coronaviruses have caused deadly outbreaks before, namely SARS and MERS, and vaccine research went ahead for both. However, none has been licensed, partly because SARS fizzled out and MERS is regional to the Middle East. The lessons learned will help scientists create a vaccine for Sars-CoV-2, but there is still an awful lot to learn about the virus.
