UK government started hunt for coronavirus vaccine


Uk government has appointed a new taskforce to drive forward the hunt for a coronavirus vaccine and prepare industry to manufacture it at scale once it is developed.



Business Secretary Alok Sharma told the daily Covid-19 press conference that top scientists and manufacturers will work together to develop a vaccine.

He said that the new Vaccine Taskforce will receive Government funding from a £14 million pot which aims to speed up the progress of treatments and vaccines being developed



Led by chief scientific adviser Sir Patrick Vallance and the deputy chief medical officer Jonathan Van-Tam, the Vaccine Taskforce will co-ordinate efforts to find a vaccine, funnel resources and support to industry and research institutions and review regulations to remove any unnecessary red tape standing in their way.
