Ebola vaccine could be ready for trials in months, Oxford scientist says

[00:00:00]What we are doing is using the same technology that we used for the COVID vaccine to help make a vaccine against Bundibugyo. Normally, a vaccine will take some time to get made and get tested. So, typically, it will take 5 to 10 years. We don't have that luxury here. So, what we are trying to do is do many of the steps that are routinely done do it in parallel. And we're hoping, if everything goes well, that we would have a vaccine that could be tested in 2 to 3 months.
