TRIALS for a vaccine which could protect against Covid-19 are set to begin across Southampton.

Researchers at University Hospital Southampton and the University of Southampton will soon be trialling the vaccine, which has been made from a weakened version of a common cold virus from chimpanzees.

Having seen my good friend destroyed with the vaccines given to him before the Gulf War I’d hang fire in trialling anything myself to be honest.

I'm in...

Or maybe not 🙁

Bit early at the moment to say much. By contrast, passive vaccination with antibodies has proven efficacy in Ebola treatment. SARS-COV-2 will be next.

I'd be interested to read the participant informed consent for the trial, given they bypassed standard GLP safety studies, from what I have read.

Risky. If anyone dies during the trial it'd be a murder
