COVID-19 Vaccine Shows Promise In Small Trial Including Eight People

Data from biotech company Moderna Inc shows early promising results from their COVID-19 vaccine.

According to Reuters, Moderna's vaccine is the first to be tested in the United States.

Studies showed that it produced protective antibodies in a very small group of healthy volunteers.

The data are from a limited study of eight people who took part in a safety trial that kicked off in March.

The novel coronavirus has infected more than 4.8 million people globally and killed over 319,000.
