Canada tests new vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 virus
While the Covid-19 virus pandemic is still unpredictable, especially in European countries, a new vaccine is being studied and tested in Canada. Saskatchewan University of Canada has now introduced the vaccine to the Covid-19 virus into a formal test.
In January 2020, the University of Saskatchewan was licensed by the Canadian Public Health Agency to begin researching the vaccine for the Covid-19 virus. According to local media reports, Saskatchewan University is currently testing the vaccine on animals.
However, it is not yet known exactly when the new vaccine will be used in humans.
The director of the Saskatchewan University's Center for Infectious Diseases Vaccine, Volker Gerdts, said that the experience of the SARS pandemic has helped researchers make a lot of progress in finding a new vaccine. He said there were still a few weeks until the trial was over, and they were sure to succeed.
According to a recent report, an estimated 70% of Canadians could be affected by the Covid-19 virus pandemic, if there is no preventive measure. The world is also working hard on finding cures and vaccines to prevent this virus.
