Re: Vaccine

Just got word that University of Washington, Seattle is accepting 10 candidates for the
Part B, Group 5, Her2 peptide vaccine, plus 2000 mcg Ampligen. 4 mcg, 20 mcg, 79 mcg and 495 mcg have already been tested. I am a little freaked out that they are going from 495 mcg to 2000 mcg in this arm. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? They want me to participate and get my first vaccine this month. Thank you.
