This study, UK officials say, will streamline and improve vaccine testing and development
The UK is officially moving forward with the world’s first Covid-19 human challenge trial, in which healthy volunteers will deliberately be exposed to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid disease, in a carefully controlled setting.
Kicking off in the next few weeks, the government announced on Wednesday that the study will include up to 90 healthy adult volunteers aged 18–30 years, who are at the lowest risk of harm from Covid-19.
The researchers aim to establish the smallest amount of virus it takes to sicken someone, and hope that their work will aid Covid vaccine and therapy research.
