(There's another candidate that only encodes receptor binding domain and looks like they're not going to pursue that one.) There was a good antibody response and also T-cell response with this vaccine. The T-cell response is really important. Good responses even in the elderly -- with a booster. It's in Phase 3 trials and they've enrolled and dosed 11,000 people so far on the way to 30,000. They hope to get regulatory review ---- with enough infections in the placebo group to reach valid conclusions --- sometime in October. Link 03-cloud9

Don't these type vaccines literally change the body's RNA - permanently? If so, not sure it will be well received by many.
