There are some viruses that we still do not have vaccines against. We can't make an absolute assumption that a vaccine will appear at all, or if it does appear, whether it will pass all the tests of efficacy and safety," Dr David Nabarro, World Health Organization's Covid-19 special envoy, was quoted as saying in a CNN report.
There are lots of vaccines which are being tested for Covid-19, some of which are in the Stage 1 clinical trial.But we still don’t know how fast they will proceed towards a vaccine and they can take several months to reach any point. According to the World Health Organization, three vaccine candidates are in clinical trial phase, meaning they are able to be tested on humans.Till that the best vaccine is to keep social distancing and hygienic.
we hope that by september, 2020, we may get the Vaccine as Professor Sara Gilbert's vaccine has already clinically trailed and as far as I know there is no side effect hase been found yet.
Researchers from Oxford University developed and tested a candidate vaccine, however, it might be available by September if it shows its effectiveness.

Thank you Asif Shahriar , Luqman M Rababah Narjes Alfuraiji Shivani Raval for your prompt replies.
Deviram Garlapati I think we can keep our hopes on a vaccine, but I don't think it will be 100% successful one but it will be helpful for raising the expectations of lives of COVID patients.
Deviram Garlapati We hope that by the end of 2020 a vaccine may be available according to the ongoing research by many research teams worldwide. But most probably it will not be very efficient due to the time of its development.
it is a question of wait and see since many labs are working on developing a vaccine. Let's keep our fingers crossed
news item of today: Canada now also approved clinical trials for their vaccination candidate, see https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/coronavirus/health-canada-approves-first-clinical-trial-for-potential-covid-19-vaccine-1.4942507
This overview page by Germany's pharma industry gives an impression of 68 COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2 vaccination projects currently under way. Normally it would take 15-20 years. Now many shortcuts are taken... https://www.vfa.de/de/englische-inhalte/vaccines-to-protect-against-covid-19
I have note about covid-19 ..many are asking why the people of middle east countries showing a low percentage of the positive cases of covid-19 ? I think it is more propaply because the majority use the medical herbs daily as fresh vegitables or as hot driks from dried
From dried herbis and it is well known that alot of these herbs are supportted the immune system
According to the WHO there are currently 7-8 very promising vaccine candidates...
Testing in humane has startend...
It may be available from next year on for some parts of the global population...
In the arabian countries the Covid-19 wave approached later but now it is spreading strongly...
The question is wheather the level of Testing is adequate...
We can expect a vaccine to fight CoViD-19 soon. Research on VACCINE of CoViD-19 is going on in different universities all over the world. The Human Trail is going on somewhere. Maybe in the near future, we will be able to get rid of CoViD-19.
I agree with dr. Emeka, although that there are a lot of efforts to find vaccine to Covid -19.. it is too early to predict for getting a vaccine especially there are a new generations from this virus.
There are a number of vaccines under trial. In this crisis, politics is mixed with science, and everything is unclear.
@Anmar Aldewachi, @ Sura Aldewachi ...thank you for your thoughts
Many countries are researching to produce a vaccine , I hope a dependable vaccine can be made soon
WHO is coordinating all efforts to develop vaccines of COVID-19 and to provide updated information as soon as research results become available.
There is a light at the end of the tunnel. We just have to wait and see.
Russia announced few days ago that it had completed trials of the vaccine and it would be ready in September.
