- A Covid-19 vaccine could take a long time. Some scientists are proposing a controversial plan that could get us one faster.

With thousands of people dying of Covid-19 every day, the sooner a vaccine can be deemed safe and effective, the better. But vaccine development is a lengthy process that isn’t easy to rush, and that’s in part because of the final step in testing any vaccine: the phase III trial. Phase III requires tens of thousands of volunteers, each of whom get either a placebo or an experimental vaccine. The problem is the next part: Vaccine developers have to wait until a statistically significant number of them, going about their lives normally, eventually get naturally infected. This can take years.
To speed that up, some epidemiologists and scientists are calling for something called a human challenge trial, in which a subject who has been given the vaccine is deliberately infected. This isn’t a new concept; human challenge trials have been used to develop vaccines or treatments for lots of diseases, like cholera, typhoid, malaria, influenza, and common cold viruses. But what sets Covid-19 apart from those diseases is that it currently has no effective treatment. Because it’s so new, we also aren’t fully aware of its long-term health effects. Unlike other human challenge trials, a Covid-19 challenge trial would entail a risk of serious illness - and even death.
It’s because of those risks that a Covid-19 challenge trial would be limited to the young and healthy, who would be at the lowest risk of harm. But there are questions beyond the ethics. Would artificially infecting someone in a lab setting provide useful information on how to prevent natural infection? Would a study performed on only young and healthy people produce a vaccine that works for everyone? And with some vaccines already far along in their phase III trials, would a human challenge trial do any good at this point?
Even though no Covid-19 human challenge trials are currently planned, more than 30,000 people from nearly 150 countries have already said they would volunteer for one if the opportunity presented itself. The question is, should we let them?

Everybody gangsta till the US graph shows up
US has 5x population of UK so graph at start kinda make sense
@@GardenGuy1943 even if you just use % of people infected of a population the US still has a higher percent so population size isnt the issue
@@blazeylikme7801 more people, more chances of spreading.
@@P3G4SUZ I mean, that's not how it works. US has far less population density than Hong Kong and such. You have lots of land there, so the population per acre is less than UK on avg prob.
@@P3G4SUZ if you adjust for population it should be even. Especially if we would all listen to health experts and stay at home. Gov't officles should have supported that.
Makes me remember about the guy who proved that bacteria causes stomach ulcers, rather than stress. By infecting himself with it and curing it with antibiotics and got Nobel prize in physiology. Dr. Barry Marshall is his name.
welp, my mother told me so many times over the years I'll get an ulcer from stress :| good to know tho
This does not necessarily mean that stress does not cause stomach ulcers, it just means that (bad) bacteria does too
@@Darkev77 Yes. I agree to that. My comment sounds like stress has nothing to do with ulcers. In reality, the bacteria H. Pylori is the sole cause of stomach ulcer. But, stress induces the production of acid in stomach which worsens the condition.

Literally risking their lives voluntarily for the benefit of humanity. Sounds cheesy but that's exactly what these trial volunteers are doing. I wish them the very best, and I hope their governments treat them like the heroes they are.
Who cares about that money money money
May sound cheesy but I couldn't agree more with you & also really hope their governments highlight their heroism in doing such a thing.
You are making heroes from a bunch of people who are getting voluntarily infected from a simple flue for the sake of getting money, attention or social approval.
Definitely, let's make statues for the generations to remember them.

To those who are volunteering - you have my uttermost respect, and I can’t thank you enough for what you’re contributing to society.
Me too!! Especially since I have an autoimmune disease... It's like they're my heroes and I would be forever grateful to them :))
Mino Nasri Yes, but would you risk losing your life even if I gave you a million pounds? You wouldn’t. And these people, they’re only being given probably a few hundred or a few thousand. It takes plenty of courage to be doing this, when you could be sitting at home being furloughed.
@Mino Nasri actually, that's not a definite at the moment - it could be that volunteers aren't compensated above travel costs/lost wages ect
they delete proofs out of the internet and people have mental blocks so they dont share.

@@vermillion8521 You mean Sacrifices for satanic agenda.
@@KamiTenchi what satanic agenda 💀
Honestly, if I had to choose between getting Covid and paying $10,000 to a hospital or getting Covid and earning money for it, I'd know what to choose.
Bruh the choices are the same... 0_0
@gdpm *Laughs in European*
but... you would not go to a hospital anyway... the probability is less than 1 in 10000 if you're young, and it doesn't matter if you contract it from a trial or from an infected person, its the same disease.
These should be voluntary without pay. Otherwise rich will wait until enough desperate poor people get the virus/tested. Similar to military draft during the war.
Ok but is everyone seriously gonna ignore the fact that the choices of what @Brains Applied said was the same.
The thought of knowingly infecting yourself with a disease is so frightening to me, mad respect to these brave volunteers!!
Edit- How are people in the comments saying that COVID isn’t real 😐
Honestly I’d volunteer cuz I’m from the US and theirs already a good chance imma get it , plus it’ll save lives
RATTY CLOWN ! Right, I don’t care how much compensation I’d get, they’re brave.
I will do it for that sweet money
@Karma wait u get money for this... dang another reason why, I wish I could but imma minor
some aren't brave, their desperate. I would do it to for 10,000$
I told my mom I wanna join the volunteer group but being a typical asian she gave me that deadly stare..its not the virus I'm scared of.
Ishika - LOL, I can relate a bit too much to this. But in all seriousness, have a chat with her, talk about the risk and rewards
lol! I definitely had to have a chat with my mom about it. And you can support the advocacy work without signing up for a challenge trial if you want btw
Be an adult and talk to them. It's your life not theirs
@@tired2sleep I won't sorry Asians here our parents do sm for us we don't take major decisions without them if it were to be my life alone they won't be paying for education healthcare without anything in return❤
@@NOVA-ei9kj in my opinion life is short and you should do whatever you want. you can still give back to them while still living out your best life. It's possible to balance both, and it's important for the parents to back off at times and let their child do what they want and learn from their life. Learning from your own life experiences is better than just trusting your parents because "they know better" . Truth is they are just humans and they don't know everything, its important to realize that for a lot of Asian children. Many just think their parents' word is everything but you never grow up that way. I see a lot of Asian kids being so sheltered that by their mid-twenties they still haven't experienced what it is like to be an adult without parents.

shame on you
@@morgiou5260 shush
I actually wouldn’t mind doing this, I’m already going to be exposed to the virus in school so why not get infected willfully in a controlled environment?
waterlily my thoughts exactly
Because a vaccine is mostly for old people and we don't know the side effects of the vaccine or long term damage from the virus in young people even though they have mild symptoms usually. You shouldn't be forced to school. My kid is a senior in high school, which is heartbreaking not to be in school but the entire country is doing virtual classes online, same school, same teachers, but the kids are at home. The only thing they miss is bullying and cafeteria food.
By school do you mean you aren't an adult because then you can't legally consent to volunteer.
Yoshi consent to medical research, at least in my state, is not outlined under the law. It’s essentially a big ‘what if?’, which could be appeased by either making new legislation regarding minors to consent in medical research or simply having the parent or guardian consent on my behalf. The situation is not that I can’t, it just isn’t defined yet.
Exactly!

@@GoproGabe

Russia be like "I’m ten steps ahead of you we don’t use volunteers we use prisoners"
Well if it work, it work. I guess
Midnight Eclipsed If you believe that the end justifies the means, then yes, testing on prisoners is worth it. It’s just a question of whether or not testing it on non-willing people is moral or not.
ah hahaha utilitarianism ahaha
Do they really test it on prisoners or is this a joke
@@milosm9280 They released a vaccine and are claiming it's both safe and protects from the virus, but they haven't released any of the research, and haven't done a phase 3 trial yet. I'm willing to bet they did human challenge trials. It was mostly a joke, but it's not unthinkable that it could be true. Who knows, maybe they offered money to volunteers, or reduced sentences for prisoners. We really have no idea why they think their vaccine will definitely work.
If we were living in the 60s, they would just do this testing on prisoners.
That is harsh but even if they do it on prisoners hopefully they ask before commencing....
I know this sound controversial but give it to prisoners in exchange for sentence reduction or some perks while in prison
China is probably doing this to their prisoners
@@CYYB3RMISTER Uigers no doubt - nice way to get the full age range of test subjects
Russia just did it on their soldiers for the controversial vaccine they just approved. Soldiers can't really say no either, just like prisoners.
All the young people willing to volunteer themselves is really hearting.
Its not... we have lost our value when we choose to become a lab rat. We are not informed. Viruses have been around since the beginning of time, they are a part of our DNA 8%. Viruses help our adaptive immunity, and natural selection. Humans should not be tampering with adaptation. People volunteering for this cause may be working against humanity not for it.

@@GonzoJohnny if you think these are guessing you haven't seen theoretical physics. I wouldn't say guesses more like evidence combined with previous knowledge, so a educated guess is probably the word
@@GonzoJohnny Duhh that's how science works. You start with a "guess" or a hypothesis and prove that hypothesis via experiments and data collected.

Petition not to as those people are often middle aged obese people and not only would the risk of killing them be deeply wrong and unethical but forcing them to do it would only make them martyrs and further their beliefs.
Petition to send them back to school
these trial volunteers are truly such angels. i send my utmost gratitude to you all, it’s such a selfless act and i’m so glad these people exist.
These people are heroes. And I do not use that word very often, or at all.
Deaths in younger healthy people seem incredibly rare though, actually most infected young people go through life not even realizing they are infected, I'm mostly worried about my parents for example, but even if they get it the chance of becoming severely ill or dying is still really low
Pitou 😎
So heroic maiming yourself for a vaccine that will cause more damage than it prevents
I kinda feel like you've overlooking a lot of heroes all around if you rarely use the word heroes. The health workers who, without an existing vaccine, willingly subject themselves to closed areas taking care of victims battling COVID, the first responders in terrible situations like 9/11, the aid workers who risk going into war-torn countries to deliver food and medical care to trapped civilians there, etc.
r0conscious but they are still deliberately infecting themselves, and as it is said in the video, they are risking long-term effects as well

General Dickbutt at this point I think there is enough clinical trials to start risking the human trial phases, this particular pandemic has made it so that the clinical trials are undertaken by several more people than any other disease.
Those people deserve world recognition for their willingness and their sacrifices for the greater collective good.
This vaccine is absolutely NOT for the greater good. Unless you consider sterilizing people and giving them health problems and depopulating the world is for the greater good.
Lucky W bruh
Lucky W just stop, you have no proof
These people need to be named and honoured for their willingness. No matter the money, this is what real bravery and strength looks like. You guys are my heroes
Why is this controversial? If you’re young, healthy, idealistic and want to help the world. Let them do it. They’re hero’s in my mind
Because based on data there are more old people who died from covid-19 than the young people. The young people still can be a volunteer, but the result can take different for old people.
Sorry my English
You can only use the vaccine in the population that you've tested the vaccine in. Which means a vaccine based on data from a human challenge trial could only be used on healthy young adults because those are the only people you'd sign up for a challenge trial. That would make the vaccine kind of useless as the vaccine is far more important for the old and immunocompromized. Or would you disagree that it would be unethical to sign up old people for a challenge trial?
I wish all the people who help build the vaccine the best of luck :)
And their luck will run out like a gambler in a casino in Vegas.

These guys sound so brave and eloquent. Real heroes of our times. These are the guys that deserve statues of them and to show up in history books.
Not sure you'll have the space to store all those statues and pages in history books since there probably has been hundreds of thousands of volunteers in human history who subjected themselves to risk in testing vaccines.

Deaths in younger healthy people seem incredibly rare though, actually most infected young people go through life not even realizing they are infected, I'm mostly worried about my parents for example, but even if they get it the chance of becoming severely ill or dying is still really low
These kids risking their life. Hope everything goes well for them
Those volunteers are underrated, they are cool as f and I would be a volunteer to those tests but there is no active study in my country
Me: **looks at title** Who would ever volunteer for this.

Hey, I know that's supposed to be taken as a joke but please don't say that, I too have sometimes wished(before this pandemic) but now I realize we would really regret this wish of ours don't okay,i hope you never get sick specially with something that serious~
I wouldn't. And btw, that disease caused weight loss is pretty much always temporary. I would recommend attempting to change your diet and activity. I've lost about 15 pounds since this pandemic began with about 30 more to go. And it's also good incentive because from what I read, not having too much extra weight helps people who contract covid.
@Shhreyas Kairoli sounds exotic
WHO went from 'no' to 'if the benefits outweigh the risks' yeah, thank you for the deep and profound revelations you shared with us
I just automatically thought about the money
To everyone volunteering and anyone who has ever volunteered in any other research, thank you because who knows where the world would be if you hadn’t volunteered
Mad Respect for all of them.
