There is hype about a possible covid vaccination by january. how could safety be evaluated when the shot is developed at breakneck speed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vaccine Trials: They still test for safety. For instance, the Moderna Covid-19 vaccine study (messenger RNA-based vaccine, mRNA-1273) is enrolling 30,000 participants for Phase III. This will be a randomized, placebo-controlled trial.
