A team from the University of Cambridge developed what they’re calling a “universal vaccine” after developing a “super-antigen” that could provide an “all-in-one” solution to future outbreaks.

The team fed an AI model every known genetic sequence from a sub-genus of coronavirus known as “Sarbeco.” The model then developed an antigen with common features, that could — at least in theory — help block or even prevent infections from the entire viral group. So far, the results have only been tested on a relatively small group of volunteers at two UK medical facilities, but it appears to have triggered a positive immune response against both SARS and COVID. If #Artificial Intelligence helps to prevent a whole swath of dangerous illnesses, will everyday Americans start trusting it more? It’s at least a start!
