New finding may aid in development of vaccines against future animal-to-human viral diseases

A future vaccine providing protection against a wide range of coronaviruses that jump from their original animal hosts to humans - including SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19 - may be possible, say Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers, based on findings from their recent study.
