COVID-19 VACCINES DEVELOPMENT

The new strange Corona Virus Pandemic has taken the World by storm. It has already killed more than half a million peoples and infected over 3 million Worldwide. United States , Brazil , Russia and Peru are most devastated. Spain , Italy and United Kingdom have suffered with thousands of infections and many deaths. Symptoms of COVID-19 include high temperatures , coughing and respiratory difficulties. There is no definitive medical cure or management of the disease. Researchers all over are working very hard to find cure , appropriate medication and vaccines to treat and manage the situation. Safety measures against catching the disease include Social/Physical Distancing of not less than one metre long , washing of hands regularly with soap under clean running water and weaing of facce masks covering nose and mouth. Use of strong alcohol based hand sanitizers are recommended where necessary. Oxford University Scientists , Researchers in China , Russia , America and elsewhere are working hard testing experimental vaccines across the globe. So far preliminary test results are encouraging. But further experiments are needed to satisfy very high safety and efficacy standards. Already arrangements are being made by America and UK to buy millions of COVID-19 vaccines for their population  when they become ready for use. This ugly development is not good for defeating the pandemic. The need for free and easy access to medications and vaccines against spread of the weird disease must be accepted and promoted.  America and UK are trying hard to claim leadership role in search for COVID-19 vaccines. They have accused Russia and China of stealing or attempting to hack into their vaccines research documents. There should be Worldwide collaboration in COVID-19 Vaccines Research. And not selfish competitive efforts among Researchers.  Which may create unnecessary tension ,  mistrust and hinder progress in the search for vaccines and cures for COVID-19. Governments are to support all attempts at finding  cures or vaccines for the pandemic. And help make any possible cures or vaccines free of charge and easily accessible to humankind.
