Factbox: U.S., UK spend billions to take lead in securing coronavirus vaccines

Aug 5 (Reuters) - The United States and United Kingdom are leading a rush to strike deals with drugmakers to reserve supplies of
experimental coronavirus vaccines, as the race to develop a safe and effective vaccine reaches the final stages of testing. There are
currently no approved vaccines for COVID-19, with 27 candidates being studied in humans.
    The following is a list of supply deals for potential vaccines that give some countries a guarantee of a limited number of doses:
