摘要
The highly pathogenic and readily transmissible SARS-CoV-2 has caused a global coronavirus pandemic,urgently requiring effective countermeasures against its rapid expansion.All available vaccine platforms are being used to generate safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines.Here,we generated a live-attenuated candidate vaccine strain by serial passaging of a SARSCoV-2 clinical isolate in Vero cells.
