1.He was in 'Control Group'. 2. He received placebo. End of the story. Thank You for fake news

You should be charged with inciting panic for this bullshit tweet. Scum of the earth stuff right here.

Once the COVID 19 vaccine trial is resumed progress reports should be shared. This will help with public confidence once a vaccine is approved.

Prayers..

They do not care of human life I doubt this vaccine will every work, after such a small period of time.

Fraud and the Tory Party - theft, plagiarism, unlike death of a lawyer 1.1.99, criminal occupation of property, criminal damage, GBH. Fraudulent ‘donations’ to Johnson and the Tories. Various crime reference numbers issued in connection with the fraud.

The Guardian 2014 and Reuters 2020.

Clickbait! The volunteer received a placebo NOT the vaccine!

The report says the volunteer belongs to a controlled group who did not receive the vaccine on trial. It also mentioned that the volunteer received a meningitis vaccine instead.

Omg

Why do you fake the friggin people. That person took a placebo

Technology works with metal not with Chemical, delete technology from Vaccine, their vaccine is Ready.

Do placebos kill?

Shame on you for the incomplete tweet.

He received the placebo
