Re: Walter Reed Vaccine trial
Sandra,
I thought being tested was part of the trial. I just happened to get tested before. That brings up a good question, why have the AE37 vaccine for those who are negative? There must be some evidence that it is effective or companies would not spend millions of dollars pursuing results in a clinical trial?
I feel very lucky to be part of this trial. I am hoping that Balboa NMC in San Diego is approved soon so that I don't have to make too many trips out to San Antonio.
