Two scientists in a desperate race against time: can they develop a vaccine to combat the coronavirus ravaging the globe?
Wang Jing, a director at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in central China, has designed her whole life to prepare for such a moment. Living in the epicenter of the pandemic, she must focus all her energy to save her ancestral country.
On the other side of the globe, Bryce Paton, director of the Virology Laboratory at the National Institutes of Health, is eager to join the fight. His determination is amplified when the virus threatens those he adores the most.
With the death count increasing every day, the sense of urgency is overwhelming. Institutions, universities, laboratories, and foundations are all rushing to develop a cure before the entire population becomes decimated. The search becomes personal as family, friends, and loved ones succumb to the deadly disease described as COVID-20.
Will a cure be discovered in time?
