El acceso a una vacuna contra el coronavirus es crucial para muchos países, cuyos gobiernos optan por financiar parte del desarrollo de la misma o hacer encargos previos a los grupos farmacéuticos.

A fecha de 9 de junio, había 10 proyectos de vacuna en fase clínica, y 126 en fase preclínica, según la OMS. Resulta difícil saber qué proyecto está más avanzado, pero algunas compañías han informado mucho sobre el suyo, como la estadounidense Moderna. Su vacuna experimental entrará en su tercera (y última) fase de ensayos clínicos en julio, anunció la empresa recientemente.
