But I wonder how much effort is being put into it though. Take the Sars outbreak. They tried developing a vaccine, and failed. Everybody just assumed it was impossible to create a vaccine for a coronavirus, as we never had one anyway.

Now with Covid-19, we have multiple vaccines in the third, and final, stage of testing. And we also have a controversial vaccine that has been approved in Russia. All within a couple of months. Why that hasn't been achieved with Sars?

SARS fizzled out, so we lost interest and funding was cut.

SARS died down before they could develop a vaccine. After that it's kinda hard to do human trials without deliberately infecting someone.
