Fox News
A new trial involving 12,000 college students from around 20 universities in the U.S. will focus on COVID-19 vaccines and the impact they have on asymptomatic transmission.
The students will be responsible for completing questionnaires through an electronic app and conducting nasal swab samples daily. They will also periodically be required to produce blood samples. In addition to the 12,000 students involved in the study, about 25,000 more individuals will be identified by participants as close contacts. The contacts will provide samples to help determine the degree of transmission from vaccinated individuals.More Related News
