It seems to me that it should be relatively straightforward to grow SARS-COV-2 in vitro and then inactive it via UV radiation.
After we inactivated it we could give it to test subjects to see whether we get a good immune response.
Is there a reason this is more complicated then I think? Have I missed something else? Otherwise what’s the reason that there are no such trials going on?
[Question] Why don’t we have active human trials with inactivated SARS-COV-2?
