How Much Efficient should a Coronavirus Vaccine be? How Much Efficient are the Top Vaccines?

The world is in the midst of the deadly  Covid-19 pandemic . An increment in the numbers of daily cases around the world is terrifying. The researchers are working hard and round the clock to find a vaccine to this deadly virus. A number of vaccines are going through different phases. But how much efficient should a vaccine be to stop the pandemic? Let us learn about the minimum efficiency required and the various vaccines in making. Will a vaccine alone be enough to stop the pandemic? It  depends on the efficiency of a vaccine. A vaccine with a higher efficiency rate might be able to stop this pandemic whereas a vaccine with low efficiency rate might not be enough to stop this pandemic alone. What Does the Computer Simulations Show? The computer simulations introduces the Covid-19 virus with the virtual population with different ways and can show scenarios spreading it from person to person. The results of the simulation indicates how vaccines with different efficiency rate would affe

It prepares the body to make antigens or antibodies. A vaccination is generally administered through needles. A vaccine can take upto 10  years to develop and to be ready to use for public.  What are the different stages of vaccine development? A vaccine has to go through different stages before it is made available to the public. Pre-Clinical Trials: This research is done in the laboratories on cells and animals. Pre-clinical trials indicates about the efficiency and safety of the vaccine. Phase I trials: In this phase, r esearchers monitors the kidney, liver, hormone and cardiac functions to look for adverse affects in human volunteers.It take
