Mosquito Vaccine Trial Partipant Recieves Injection

Caption

A participant receives an injection in an NIH trial examining a vaccine intended to provide broad protection against a range of mosquito-borne diseases. The study is placebo-controlled and double-blind, so neither the participant nor the nurse performing the injection know if the participant received the investigational vaccine or a placebo injection of sterile water.
