A<unk>  is a vaccine against<unk> . No effective vaccine currently exists, but development of a vaccine is the subject of current research. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has been involved in funding research conducted by the Sabin Vaccine Institute and others. There are many obstacles to development of such a vaccine. One obstacle is variant surface glycoprotein which makes it difficult for the immune system to recognize the infectious organism. Also, Trypanosoma brucei has a direct inhibitory effect upon B cells. It has been suggested that these challenges could be overcome by a vaccine against the initial antigens, or generating an immune response against the cysteine protease (for example, cruzipain). An effective vaccine was achieved in 2021 using a mouse model of infection with Trypanosoma vivax.
