The Indian Government has ordered its medical department ICMR to find a vaccine against Covid 19 by August 15. Twelve hospitals across the country have been ordered to conduct tests and report the results to ICMR. The question that is being asked by the medical fraternity and laymen alike is - Is it scientifically possible to invent the much required vaccine in such a short time?
The deadline is auspicious but neglecting scientific norms to achieve it might lead to disaster.
What is your take?

The final phase of the development of the vaccine is the testing. How long do you think it will take to find 1,000 volunteers to be vaccinated?

1000 is not a big number with the huge Indian population.
Yet we have other doubts.
But may be, the vaccine is going to be a good one.
Let us see what comes out!

There have been multiple answers to this. And I won't believe it until I get to see it in the market

Vaccine is the worlds keep playing since many days but still not comes in market as many people keep telling it will come in august, December, next year and etc. If possible then they should have to start from now to give rather then wait of 15 august. Let hope this time come.
