vaccines are a cool thing and all, but i cannot find a single successful coronavirus vaccine for humans. weve been chasing this forever with the common cold coronavirus.

I may be wrong because searches right now only tend to come back with COVID19 variant responses, so there may be other coronavirus that have had successful vaccines developed, i just can find zero
