Hasn't hit big mainstream media yet, but these sources appear reputable:

And in 2014 researchers concluded that the measles vaccine protected against SARS (aka COVID-01).

Verification of this, and ramping up production can be accomplished more quickly than certifying a new vaccine... and much of the population is already vaccinated anyway.

If this pans out, it will become the definitive case study of "Better to be Lucky than Good".
