Abstract: Provided is an orally administrable vaccine against a coronavirus infectious disease. A transformed Bifidobacterium designed to display a part or a whole of a constituent protein of a coronavirus on a surface of the Bifidobacterium enables the provision of the orally administrable vaccine against a coronavirus infectious disease. The transformed Bifidobacterium designed to display a part or a whole of a constituent protein of a coronavirus on a surface of the Bifidobacterium can induce humoral immunity and cellular immunity through oral administration to suppress an increase in severity of pneumonia or the like even after viral infection.

Abstract: Provided is a ribozyme to cleave a coronavirus gene and a therapeutic agent for a coronavirus infectious disease. A common base sequence in coronaviruses such as SARS-CoV and MHV was searched to design a ribozyme including a base sequence complementary thereto. Moreover, a therapeutic agent for a coronavirus infectious disease including such ribozyme was obtained.
