Rachel Scott Martine were given exclusive access inside an Army lab, closely studying the Corona virus as they try to find a way to win this war.

At Fort Dietrich in Maryland, Army scientists are armed with face masks, rubber gloves and test tubes.

They are on the front lines in the fight against the Corona virus.

But we want to do is to prevent the disease, and the way to do that is drew a vaccination.
