LONDON (Reuters) - A leading British scientist has made a significant
breakthrough in the race for a coronavirus vaccine by reducing a part of
the normal development time from “two to three years to just 14 days”,
Sky news reported.

Robin Shattock, head of mucosal infection and immunity at Imperial
College London, said he is now at the stage to start testing the vaccine
on animals as early as next week with human studies in the summer if
enough funding is secured, Sky said.

Patent for coronavirus vaccine filed in 2015.

All it needs is some minor adjustments for surface antigens
(the patented vaccine was for chickens).
Lucky for humanity that both institutions are public.

If and when the vaccine is made available, it'll cost cents,
not thousands of dollars. I hope.
