Derek Lowe writes an incredibly good, readable, and very reliable blog on topics across medicinal chemistry and drug development. (lots of picky fact checkers read it and he is very responsive about making corrections as required) Here is his most recent summary of corona virus vaccine development, with links to the underlying data, if you're interested in a pretty comprehensive picture of what's happening. Bottom line-- a ton of activity and a myriad of approaches; preliminary data from early safety studies and antibody/T cell responses look promising for several candidates. We should see the beginnings of efficacy data soon; it will take longer to get the candidates into enough patients to assess safety in a broad population.
