To develop a live intranasal COVID-19 vaccine to generate both humoral (especially respiratory mucosal) and cellular acquired immune responses against SARS-CoV-2, based on a recombinant version of an attenuated nonhuman poxvirus called myxoma virus that has been engineered to co-express the four SARS-CoV-2 proteins (S, N, M and E) needed to produce secreted non-infectious virus-like particles that antigenically mimic the complete SARS CoV-2 virus.
