List of 70 COVID-19 Vaccines currently being tested

Data from the World Health Organisation reveals there are 70 Vaccines under development and currently being tested around the world to help combat the spread of COVID-19. Out of the 70 potential vaccines, 3 are already being tested on humans.

The three being tested on humans are as follows;

  • Adenovirus Type 5 Vector and is developed by CanSino Biological Inc./Beijing Institute of Biotechnology (A Chinese company)
  • DNA plasmid vaccine Electroporation device and is developed by Inovio Pharmaceuticals. (A US-based Company)
  • LNPencapsulated mRNA and is developed by Moderna/NIAID (A US-based Company)

Out of the three vaccines being tested on humans, the Adenovirus is already in Phase 2 while the others remain in Phase 1 of the testing stage. It typically takes between 10 to 15 years to get a Vaccine out but Health Organisations across the world are hoping to reduce this to one year due to the urgency of eradicating the COVID-19 virus.
