COVID 19 Vaccines; Towards The end of The Pandemic?

Abstract

Globally, there is strong consensus that a COVID-19 vaccine is probably the most effective approach to sustainably take control of the COVID-19 pandemic. An unprecedented research effort and global coordination has led to the rapid development of vaccine candidates and trials being initiated. In this article, vaccine technologies and vaccine types will be reviewed, and vaccines candidates against SARS-CoV-2 (virus that causes COVID-19), currently undergoing early phase human trials, will be examined in detail. In addition, the difficulties of developing and distributing a new vaccine on a global scale will be revealed, and the steps to be taken in the country and globally regarding the expectations regarding the preparation of vaccines for other possible future epidemics will be listed.

COVID-19 Aşıları; Pandemide Sona Doğru?

Abstract

Küresel olarak, bir COVID-19 aşısının, COVID-19 pandemisini sürdürülebilir şekilde kontrol altına almak için muhtemelen en etkili yaklaşım olduğuna dair güçlü bir fikir birliği vardır. Eşi görülmemiş bir araştırma çabası ve küresel koordinasyon, aşı adaylarının hızla gelişmesine ve denemelerin başlatılmasına neden olmuştur. Bu yazıda, aşı teknolojileri ve aşı türlerini gözden geçirilmekte, şu anda erken faz insan denemelerinden geçen SARS-CoV-2'ye (COVID-19'a neden olan virüs) karşı geliştirilen aşı adayları detaylı incelenecektir. Ayrıca, küresel ölçekte yeni bir aşı geliştirmenin ve dağıtımının zorlukları gözler önüne serilecek, ileride olabilecek muhtemel diğer salgınlar için aşı hazırlama ile ilgili beklentiler konusunda ülke ve küresel anlamda atılması gereken adımlar sıralanacaktır.
