With the outbreak of the fatal coronavirus, the world has witnessed pain, tragedies,
miseries, and much more in the last three years. Even though many like to think that the
worst is over, scientists and medical experts predict that this Virus will indeed attack
anytime shortly, posing an existential threat. In challenging times like this, the world of
scientists, medical experts, and pharma companies have done a commendable job by
blending their knowledge with innovations to develop vaccines that have the potential to
save the world.
People worldwide are taking all the essential precautions such as social distancing, use of
masks and sanitisers, avoiding overcrowded places, etc., to safeguard themselves and those
around them from this Virus. But despite this, the fact remains that merely following these
protocols can never be sufficient to get rid of a virus as deadly as the coronavirus. This is
where the need for a universal vaccine arises like never before. Even though many
pharmaceutical giants are working hard and dedicatedly to demolishing this Virus, one can
establish the final results only when the time comes.
Many types of vaccines are being used by people in many parts of the world. Some of the
most common ones are Covaxin, Covidhield, etc.
With people starting everyday life again, traveling, children going to school, and offices
reopening, the need for universal Covid vaccines is crucial like never before. With the sword
of uncertainty still hanging on the necks of people and the extent of the next Virus
remaining unimaginable, it is essential that a universal vaccine fit not just for humans but
also for animals becomes an urgent and worldwide effort.
