Cure or Threat? Wuhan Lab's New Intranasal Vaccine Sparks Fears of Another Covid-like Crisis

A new intranasal vaccine developed by researchers at the Wuhan lab has recently been unveiled, promising a novel approach to combating infectious diseases. However, this breakthrough has also sparked significant controversy and concern.
