First volunteers take the test vaccine against Coronavirus

Four patients received the vaccine at the Seattle Institute of Health Research, the Associated Press, translates Periscope.

Some 45 new and healthy volunteers will receive various doses of the vaccine that was co-developed by the NIH and Moderna.

We all feel hopeless. This is a golden opportunity for me to do something,” said the student, Jennifer Haller, 43 years old from Seattle before being vaccinated.

Public health officials said it would take you between a year and 18 months to figure out if the vaccine was successful.

Participants will not receive the virus, but the goal is to see that vaccine has no undesirable side effects.

Some research groups worldwide are in a race to create a vaccine. /Periscope
