Hopes of an effective COVID-19 vaccine being developed in the near future have been raised after two separate studies showed potential positive results, British media reported Thursday.
A University of Oxford trial showed its prototype vaccine generated an immune response against the virus, the reports said.
Blood samples taken from a group of some 1,000 volunteers who were given the vaccine stimulated antibodies and “killer T-cells”, according to the Daily Telegraph newspaper.
Previous research has shown that T-cells can remain in the body for years and help fight viruses.
