Wow, so that means we can offer this vaccine to everyone, not only "high-risk groups" right?
...Right?
It is only trials. Until we see the results we can't know. There have been vaccines that don't work. There have been vaccines with nasty side effects. Until we get data we have no idea of this really works in humans. Even if it works we don't know the risks - if any. Maybe this is good for high risk but not with it for low risk. Maybe this is wonderful and everyone should get it. For now we are just waiting and seeing
It means we can start human trials
*sigh unzips
Everyone get in the pile.
Some additional context for would-be downvoters.
I think I preferred my own mental image, thanks.
Y'all need to worry about drug resistant syphilis and brain infecting gonorrhea.
Wow! No mice mentioned! Actual human trials mentioned!
Usually it's... And the mouse grew another leg. Or the mouse regained vision. Or the mouse became smarter. No more diabetes for.... The mice. Etc.
But this time it was primates and humans.... They are giving primates HIV which is wonderful.
I am not a fan of animal testing, but I'm also not a fan of testing on the poor. So far those seem to be the only two flavours :(.
Test on the pedophiles.
Non human primates are not human. It's in the name.
Shout out to everyone in a dry spell lol.
Won't be that dry as Chlamydia makes a massive cumback
In fun new antibiotic-resistant flavors!
I'm in the middle of the Sahara.

wow, I can't wait to never hear about this again. /s
