UK health minister Matt Hancock announced on Tuesday that the country will test a potential vaccine for the coronavirus on people on Thursday. The vaccine has been developed by researchers at Oxford University, Hancock said in a daily news briefing. "In normal times, reaching this stage would take years, and I'm very proud of the work taken so far," Hancock said. The minister said he would make £20 million ($24.5 million) available to the scientists at Oxford in addition to a further £22.5 million in funding for researchers at Imperial College London. "Nothing about this process is certain," Hancock said. "Vaccine development is a process of trial and error and trial again. That's the nature of how vaccines are developed."
