Description

We wouldn’t have COVID-19 vaccines or know what we know about them without the people who went in blind — those who participated in the clinical trials to check for safety and efficacy. Ian Haydon from Seattle, WA, was one of the earliest volunteers for the Moderna vaccine. In today’s episode, he shares with us what it was like to be a test subject and be part of shaping what we know about the much-anticipated vaccine.
