Making the vaccine right. That's what science knows is the only "safe" way to get reliable results once it is applied on vast part of population. I don't think we can avoid making a real vaccine to be able to immunize population. Maybe the question is only which traditional corners could be cut, what can be parallelized, and what could be the consequences. It can be that some fresh approaches which haven't been tried before should be tried, given the spread and the impact of this pandemics.
