Rapid human vaccine development map

A newly developed process map includes a rapid human (RHVD) created using the COVID-19 vaccine as an exemplar.

It will build on this experience and use the lessons learned to:

  • help researchers boost capacity
  • avoid setbacks
  • respond rapidly to future health challenges and pandemics

The process map...
