Skin patch COVID-19 vaccine in the works May offer lasting immunity - Levin - 16-11-2021

A British company is moving towards phase 1 trials for its novel Covid-19 vaccine, which is applied as a skin patch and uses T-cells to fight back against the virus.

the vaccine’s sole purpose was to “generate a targeted T-cell response” rather than an antibody response.
