OOPs...this is Lori again. I don't know what I fat fingered.

Anyhow.....there appears to be research underway at:
Mayo Clinic
Wayne State
U S Military Cancer Institute

So...Suzanne, when you spoke with your Dr., how did you settle on the University of Washington trial? Is it the furthest along? Most promising? Possibly a practical matter of the only location with an open trial?

Amelia, would you be willing to share the thoughts of your Dr?

I plan to discuss potential vaccine options with my Dr. at my next appt. in mid-january, so any insights would be appreciated. (I always seem to fall victim to coming home after an appointment and THEN thinking of all the things I should have asked)

Let's keep this vaccine thread going!!
