| Abstract | We are now living through a pandemic age caused by a novel strain of coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) with a fast-growing number of confirmed cases all over the world. Several efforts are underway to produce new drug inhibitors, repurpose existing drugs and devise combination treatments. At the same time, vaccine development is targeting both neutralizing antibodies against envelope proteins of the virus, and long-term cell-mediated immunity based on T cell lymphocytes. T cell responses are particularly |
