Imperial& #39;s vaccine candidate begins human trials. This is the second of the two vaccine candidates being bankrolled by the UK government (different approach to Oxford).

It& #39;s a bigger gamble than other countries are prepared to take. https://sputnikvaccine.com/about-vaccine/clinical-trials/">https://sputnikvaccine.com/about-vac...
