The coronavirus is a growing problem that is spreading through the world. In this article, the author talks about how there is company’s that think that they might be able to create a vaccine that can fight the corona virus. Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds. In humans, the virus causes respiratory infections which are typically mild including the common cold but rarer forms like SARS and MERS can be lethal. There are many companies like Johnson and Johnson who are working on making the vaccine. This company has also made many other vaccines for Ebola and the Zika virus.
This is a good thing because the coronavirus is spreading around the world. The Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), which was launched at Davos in 2017, said last week that it was giving three companies a total of $12.5 million to develop vaccines for the virus. Many companies have tried to stop this virus and people are willing to give a lot of money to help the cause. Anthony Fauci, director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told USA Today that the agency is also working on developing a vaccine from the sequence. Even governments are trying to fix the epidemic and help other people. I think that the USA is only helping because there is 5 confirmed cases. Therefore, I think that the way these companies and countries are trying to fix the coronavirus is good and helpful, and they are saving many peoples lives.
