Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine trial to resume

[KMSP-TV Fox 9 News, October 23, 2020] As the amount of COVID-19 cases continues to rise across the country, the pressure is on to develop a vaccine, but health experts say development should not be rushed.

Dr. Frank Rhame of Allina Health is part of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine trial which was paused October 12 when a participant got sick. Rhame said he learned Friday, the person’s illness was determined to be unrelated to the vaccine and the study will resume.
