Adenoviral vector vaccine platforms in the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic

Abstract Adenoviral vectors have been explored as vaccine agents for a range of infectious diseases, and their ability to induce a potent and balanced immune response made them logical candidates to apply to the COVID-19 pandemic. The unique molecular characteristics of these vectors enabled the rap...
