WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. Vaccines are offering hope that the end of the pandemic is near. Trials and real world evidence show us that the vaccines are effective at preventing serious illness but what about when it comes to spreading the virus.
More research is being done right now at two Triad universities: Wake Forest and Winston-Salem State. Students there are enrolling in a study to take a closer look at if vaccinated people can spread COVID-19, especially if they don t have symptoms.
