THE GUARDIAN: UK scientists want to infect volunteers with Covid-19 in race to find vaccine

Press/Media: Expert comment

Description

The idea of carrying out human challenge trials for a Covid-19 vaccine was also backed by Professor Arpana Verma, of Manchester University. “Vaccines give us the ability to protect the most vulnerable people in society. That is one of their key strengths. So I think it would be entirely justifiable to go ahead with such trials.”
