Just listening to an interview regarding Vaccination and how long this might take and the approval process etc.
The interview by Andrew Marr BTW with a vaccinologist at a leading university, and not an anon sat in a basement on 8chan!!.
Anybody on here quite happy to wander into the appropriate place, lob the arm out and take it as a trial patient for say
5 or 10 grand and sign away all legal rights if it goes south. ? FWIW I wouldn't, but have had vaccinations previously.
I don't need the money desperately enough but I am sure that many will think it worthwhile. This FT article is interesting talking about the two different types of vaccines being developed by Oxford University and Imperial College respectively.Quote:

The Oxford one sound more tried and tested using a virus found in chimpanzees to counteract the corona "spikes"
“chimpanzee adenoviral vectors are a very well studied vaccine type, having been used safely in thousands of subjects in vaccines targeting over 10 disease types,”
The Imperial one seems more experimental and I guess more risky for triallists as a consequence.
I think the question you ask would get many answers like yours at the moment, but a few months down the line with many of the current restrictions in place and talk of another wave of the virus arriving in a matter of days or weeks and some may think very differently.Quote:

The lady being interviewed was a Sarah Gilbert from Oxford Uni.Quote:

Many people are brave IMO allowing themselves to be used for research, I would guess many do it out of desperation for money which isn't very nice however.
