Hi Elmat,

As this is RNA virus, I do not expect that first iteration will be very good, or fast.
HIV, Flu both RNA virus-- HIV vaccine have been working for years,,, and no result because, consequence of marginal effectiveness = more HIV.

For Flu, less consequential,,, similar case, so effectiveness of first coronavirus--likely won't work for subsequent outbreaks.

Still believe best first line of defense is stockpile of antiviral drugs, as basic viral replication/entry machinery is much harder to thwart, than simple shape change iteration needed to defeat immune response.
