Weather of Arabia - Italy, Monday, began human trials of a possible vaccine for "Covid-19", to join the global efforts to combat the virus, which showed signs of increasing rates of its spread again in Europe.

The Ladzaro Spallanzani Institute, a hospital in Rome specializing in infectious diseases, will conduct experiments on 90 volunteers over the coming weeks, with the hope that a vaccine will be available by next spring.

The director of health affairs at the hospital, Francesco Vaya, explained that the first patient will be monitored for four hours before being allowed to return to his home, where he will remain under observation for 12 weeks.

He added that the trial will focus on whether the vaccine has any side effects, and whether it leads to the production of defensive antibodies.

Faya indicated that the second phase of the trial will be conducted in countries with higher rates of injuries, such as Mexico and Brazil.

The potential new vaccine, GRAD-Cove 2, is being developed by Rome-based company Rethira.
