A McGill research centre is looking for Montrealers willing to act as test subjects for COVID-19 vaccines!

When the centre is ready to start administering them, they will need healthy people who will be ready to get test vaccines - Right now they’re looking for people between 18 and 55, in good health, with no chronic illnesses or ongoing medications. Smokers and vapers need not apply at the moment. The reason they want people in such good health is that taking an in-development vaccine isn’t without risk.

Despite the uncertainty, people have responded enthusiastically so far, Ward said. Interested people are also invited to submit their contact information through the centre’s website at vaccinestudycentre.com
