Title: Why continuing uncertainties are no reason to postpone challenge trials for coronavirus vaccines Cord-id: 6dwyv4qo Document date: 2020_7_13
ID: 6dwyv4qo
Snippet: To counter the pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), some have proposed accelerating SARS-CoV-2 vaccine development through controlled human infection (or ‘challenge’) trials. These trials would involve the deliberate exposure of relatively few young, healthy volunteers to SARS-CoV-2. We defend this proposal against the charge that there is still too much uncertainty surrounding the risks of COVID-19 to responsibly run such a trial.
