While many Valley residents have received the COVID-19 vaccine, Centex Studies, a clinical research company in McAllen said there s still work to be done in the trial stage.
Site Director of Centex Studies Joanna Mahoney said the research company will be conducting and monitoring COVID-19 vaccination trials from AstraZeneca, Johnson & Johnson and Novavax.
Mahoney said they need people 18 or older with a stable medical condition, who are interested in volunteering.
The way it works:
Participants will receive doses of a placebo or an actual vaccine. After each visit the participants will remain in close contact with Centex, while also have 24/7 physician care, dedicated to any and all medical needs.
