Would Canadians volunteer to be infected with COVID-19 to test vaccines?

Last Updated Thursday, September 10, 2020 11:22AM PDTPreparations are underway in some parts of the world for what are known as human challenge trials.

One Day Sooner communications director Abie Rohrig said researchers in the U.K. and the U.S. are still making preparations, even without a planned trial. Over 36,000 people from around the world have signed up with One Day Sooner to express their interest in volunteering in such a trial, and Rohrig said that includes "just about 2,000" people from Canada.

As of Sept. 3, Health Canada had not received any applications for challenge trials, nor does the government have specific guidelines for such trials in Canada.for how challenge trials can be ethically acceptable, including limiting initial studies to young healthy adults aged 18 to 30. Clinical professor Stephen Hoption Cann with the University of British Columbia's School of Population and Public Health said he doesn't think the evidence is there to necessitate a challenge study for a COVID-19 vaccine at the moment.

No but you can ask our American friends

Wow. Big pandemic - where you need volunteers to get infected, because not enough people have it from natural spread. 🤔

Fuck no!!

For $$$ yes

I would, it’s basically harmless to a healthy 39 year old

Line up the Liberal sheep, at least they won't fight you when you stick it in their arm. Easy targets.

Volunteer?

No

Don’t we have prisoners for that?

Government officials first

Not I

no me or my kids

I would.

Feed the ChinaVirus vaccine to Lisa LaPhlegm and the shady art broker Evan ‘Show me the Money’ Solomon. CTV trash.

Here’s an idea 💡 Instead of infecting more people ON PURPOSE FOR NO REASON, why don’t they ASK THOSE ALREADY INFECTED if they can try the vaccine on them

Not a chance in hell. These are all being rushed.

I volunteer the politicians.

For $200,000 plus yes

Fucking lab rats

no f*ckin way

Give your head a shake

Be willing to bet more ontario and Quebec citizens be lining up then any other province

volunteer to be poisoned? Definitely not!

Not a chance!

We got a slew of unemployed Millennials, shoot them a couple of bucks and maybe they might drop the blm/defund the police signs and volunteer...

Probably. Dumbest people on earth live here.

How much would they pay me? 😜

Test it in the country of origin....

Give me the health Canada approved vaccine first and then after two weeks,then yes you can expose me to see if it works! Hands down! Someone has to step up and I likely will get exposed anyway so why not! At least their is a possibility I may be protected!

Mainstream media is at the top of the list.

But how would you know if you're infected with something that has next to no symptoms, and a 99.96% survival rate?

Hell no

Probably not many-no vaccine for SARS, Zika, West Nile, MERS, and the virus vanished on its own-get your flu shot today-what strain of flu is coming may I ask? no one knows-but get your flu shot today-no talk about the effects of smoking anymore? Why? Where did Twinrix ads go?

Why not tested on already infected?

I don't know of anyone who would volunteer to be infected? Do you?

sure for a few grand

I’m skeptical about needing a mask let alone any other bs you tools are trying to spread

Everyone who claims this is overblown or a hoax or only affects the elderly should be the first to volunteer.

So lemme get this straight, this disease is supposedly deadly, and the oxford med turned into a neurotoxin ... and you want me to be guinea pig for free while the company that produces it makes billions? No.

Why are they having a hard time finding victims? What sense does this make? fakenews Wake up Canada it's all a fraud.

Him first.

are you high

Nah, hard pass. I'm young and can survive a bad cold. I can wait decades for a safe vaccine and take it when I get older and need it to live.

Is there anyone with half a brain left at CTV?

This is the dumbest thing I've seen all day, and that's saying a lot!

Liberals first

You first.

It could be a very practical way to follow the golden rule: 'Do to others as you would have them do to you.' Or as Gandhi said, 'Be the change you want to see in the world.'

Alberta adds 619 cases of COVID-19, five deaths since Thursday'I'm concerned about the continued rise in cases,' Dr. Deena Hinshaw, Alberta's chief medical officer of health, said.
