How close are we to a COVID-19 vaccine? | Inside Story

The race for a COVID-19 vaccine is gathering pace.
Scientists around the world are competing to develop a safe and effective treatment that may help end the pandemic.
Years of research is being completed in just a few months.
A team at Oxford University in the UK has released promising results from early trials.
It’s one of around 160 vaccines under development around the world.
Although doctors are excited, they warn there’s still a long way to go before a vaccine is widely available.
So, how do we make sure everyone will have access once there’s a vaccine for COVID-19?
