“We have no knowledge about whether it prevents you from actually acquiring the infection at all,” Dr. Larry Corey, a virologist at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, told Business Insider.
I'm no virologist, idk if previous research focused on it (it'd be strange if it never had been done), but we've always seen it as: no symptoms = healthy, not sick. But I'd expect 'an export' to know of such research.
Does lack of symptoms prove there're 0 active viruses in your body? No. At best the vaccine will help your (shit) immune system if you're actually susceptible. Besides we haven't spoken about side effects yet.
It's good they have less bureaucratic brakes on their way to approval, but will we have good enough monitoring and following of the first 10-20k of vaccinated patients? Doubt so. It's all about the money, one can only hope the biologists and doctors weren't rushed too much when there's billions in sight.
