Taiwan must conquer ‘zero infection’ myth, reopen with aid of science
The reason why no vaccines were developed for the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2003 stems from the fact that, by the time scientists were done with animal testing and ready to conduct mass clinical trials, the outbreak was nearing an end, and there was no longer a real-world environment for phase three tests.
