Illustration of a potential vaccine against the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, the cause of the respiratory disease Covid-19. Nanoparticles (pink, round) formed from the protein ferritin are covered with spike (S) proteins (blue) derived from the coronavirus. When the nanoparticles are injected into the body the immune system produces antibodies (one at top) against the protein. If the individual is infected with SARS-CoV-2 the antibodies will give protection against disease. | |
