   Think different....need a "Sabin" Covid-19 vaccine....   
      
   The Sabin Vaccine - An important feature of Sabin's oral polio vaccine   
   was that immediately after vaccination, people shed weakened virus in   
   their fecal waste. This boosted immunity for others in the community   
   and gradually reduced the number of people susceptible to   
   poliomyelitis.   
      
   Killed or Live Vaccine?   
      
   Albert Sabin and other researchers, including John Enders and Hilary   
   Koprowski, had argued that long-term immunity to polio could only be   
   achieved with a live though greatly weakened virus, and that it must   
   follow the same route of infection as wild-type poliovirus -- through   
   the mouth, and infecting intestinal tissue. Weakening the virus   
   required passing it through a succession of animals--rats, mice, or   
   monkeys. This allowed it to become more virulent for these hosts, and   
   less so for humans. Hilary Koprowski carried out the first successful   
   trial of weakened virus vaccine in February 1950.
