Can we create vaccines that mutate and spread?

Summary 

The vaccine of the story is about HIV and unfortunately, the speaker meets with opposition to the test. 

The speaker’s idea is to build therapies that could mutate and transmit. The viruses of infectious diseases like HIV and COVD-19 mutate and spread from person to person. Mutating means that even if you have vaccines, it won’t be effective next time. 

However, what if vaccines worked the same way, there is potential to attack mutated viruses during modifying and treat afflicted individuals. the spread of infections will be slow. 

The speaker has continued this study for twenty years and finally, it started to work, though, many people say that it’s impossible. 

However, coronavirus vaccines haven’t been created yet and people are worried about the same thing that is mutating. 

This HIV study must lead to CVID-19 vaccines someday.
