One of the researchers said the vaccine has been developed using computational methods and was found to be highly stable, antigenic and immunogenic. The next stage would involve the production of the vaccine which would be followed by testing.

The big claim made is no other vaccine in the world has been designed so far to cope with all the Coronaviridae family viruses at a single time.
