Breaking news -Coronavirus: Potential vaccine generates enough antibodies to fight off virus, first peer-reviewed study suggests

A potential coronavirus vaccine developed by US scientists has been discovered to generate antibodies able of fighting off COVID-19 in the first peer-reviewed study of its kind, reports the Independent.

The vaccine, which was tested on mice by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, generated the antibodies in quantities thought to be enough to “neutralise” the virus within two weeks of injection.

The study’s authors are now to apply to the US Food and Drug Administration for investigational new drug approval ahead of phase one human clinical trials planned to start in the next few months.
