Working on a late phase trial of a coronavirus vaccine, the Center for
Vaccine Development and Global Health at the University of Maryland
School of Medicine is seeking the participation of older adults and
minorities, groups traditionally left out of studies.

Recruitment began Monday for the phase 3 trial for a vaccine developed
by the Massachusetts biotech company Moderna along with the National
Institutes of Health. About 30,000 volunteers are being sought
nationwide, including 500 in Maryland.

Scientists say adults, 65 or older, as well as Black people, Latinos and
other minorities historically have been underrepresented in studies for
vaccines and treatments no matter the size of their representation in
the community. But the scientists see inclusion as especially important
for the coronavirus, which has disproportionately affected these groups.

For the trial, the last stage before potential federal approval, a
person could be vaccinated with the actual vaccine or a placebo.

Officials say participants will be paid up to $1,620 and transportation
will be provided for older adults. The researchers are accepting
healthy, at-risk individuals including those with some underlying health
conditions.
