Do vaccines against pneumonia protect you against the new coronavirus?

Rumor: Vaccines against pneumonia can protect people from getting infected with the new coronavirus.

Fact:

Vaccines such as the pneumococcal vaccine and the Haemophilus influenza type B (Hib) vaccine do not provide protection against the new coronavirus. The virus is so new and different that it needs its own vaccine. Researchers are trying to develop a vaccine against 2019-nCoV, and the World Health Organization is supporting their efforts.
