Science is facing, arguably, one of its greatest challenges yet – the COVID-19 outbreak caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
Scientists across the globe are working tirelessly to understand the virus at a molecular level; how it survives, mutates, spreads and infects humans. Collectively, these efforts enhance our ability to develop both preventive and therapeutic strategies against SARS-CoV-2. Vaccines are an example of one such preventive.

Towards a coronavirus vaccine
Vaccines are biological products that generate acquired immunity to certain infectious diseases.
Under "normal" circumstances, vaccine development, licensure and manufacturing are processes that can take several years to complete.
In this critical time, a myriad of healthcare companies, research institutions and authorities are working to accelerate such timelines to quickly deliver a safe and effective vaccine against COVID-19.
Technology Networks is committed to keeping you updated with the latest research in this space. Below, you'll find a curation of our latest COVID-19 vaccine-related content.
