The company did not offer details on when the adenovirus-vectored vaccine, which a Lancet report in July 2021 said induced strong antibody responses, will be made available for public use.Scientists in several countries including Cuba, Canada and the United States are also trialing inhalable Covid-19 vaccines.But the country's drug administrator is yet to greenlight any foreign vaccines, including mRNA shots produced by Pfizer/BioNTech or Moderna.
