Australian scientists say they have successfully replicated the corona virus that caused the pneumonia epidemic that is raging, making a breakthrough in the race to make vaccines.
According to ABC, scientists at the Peter Doherty Institute for Infections and Immunology in Melbourne have successfully recreated the nCoV-2019 virus, the corona virus that causes the pneumonia epidemic that is raging in Wuhan and many localities. in China.
The successful reproduction of the nCoV-2019 virus allows scientists to test any vaccine to cope with the current pandemic. At the same time, scientists can observe, study the behavior and variation of nCoV-2019 virus under different agents.
In addition, with the newly achieved results, scientists can develop a test to determine whether a person is carrying a virus before he or she has any symptoms of infection.

Dr. Mike Catton, Deputy Director of the Peter Doherty Institute, announced that he would share the results with the World Health Organization (WHO), which is then disseminated to medical research facilities around the world. race against time to prepare a vaccine against the nCoV-2019 virus.
The Peter Doherty Institute is the only research facility outside of China that can successfully replicate the nCoV-2019 virus to date. Earlier, a research facility in China successfully replicated the nCoV-2019 virus, but declined to share the results with WHO.
Chinese authorities on Monday morning said the number of people infected with the corona virus in the country reached 5,496 cases, of which 131 patients had died. The total number of people infected with corona virus worldwide is 5,571 cases, none of them died outside of China.
