RSV Vaccine Study - Volunteer today
Optimal Clinical Trials are looking for people over 60 years to volunteer for a Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) vaccine study.
The study will be based in our clinic in central Auckland and volunteers will be reimbursed for time and travel. We can also organise taxis if requested.
As people get older, colds can become more severe and frequent because of the effect that aging has on the immune system. Older people also have more chance of developing respiratory tract infections such as RSV - a contagious virus that can cause serious respiratory illnesses like pneumonia.
