Australian scientists begin tests of two potential vaccines
Scientists in Australia have begun testing two potential coronavirus vaccines in lab trials. The CSIRO team has inserted vaccine samples into ferrets - small, furry mammals which have been proven to contract the coronavirus in the same way humans do.
These are the vaccines made by Oxford University and US company Inovio.
The first one is a vector vaccine - It uses a "defective" virus to introduce the proteins of the coronavirus to the immune system and induce a response.
The Inovio one uses an entirely different technology developed by them named “activation immunotherapy.” This vaccine delivers DNA, into a host’s cells. The DNA is translated into proteins that activate an individual’s immune system to generate a targeted immune response.
bet they are Australian scientists of "Chinese" origin
