the oxford Covid vaccine trails have been put on hold
Final clinical trials for a coronavirus vaccine, developed by AstraZeneca and Oxford University, have been put on hold after a participant had an adverse reaction in the UK.
All international trial sites have now been put on pause while an independent investigation reviews the safety data before regulators decide whether the trial can restart, the BBC's Medical Editor Fergus Walsh reports.

Damn, you made me spit. That's not going to stop the spread of COVID, is it?
@ecksmc It's actually comforting to see they are following accepted clinical trial protocols to insure safety & efficacy. Johnson & Johnson just took the previously unheard of action to pledge to prioritize safety over speed.
@ecksmc
I read that as the "Oxford Comma vaccine trials." 😂
