I'm in the Phase 2/3 trial for the Oxford vaccine. They really are doing everything possible to have it ready ASAP (as early as October) if they can. They are reviewing trial results in real time and have scaled the trial to many cities in the UK. They quiz us on exposure and test us for COVID weekly. But they are also clear that the vaccine might not work at all or that it might take longer to find out. One big issue is that the rate of the virus is the community is dropping quickly in the UK. We are down to less than 1 in ~1,700 having it. So with a trial size of 10-20k people, you can see that the whole trial hangs on a single digit number of people who will be exposed, hence the constant testing to flag those people. To increase the chances of getting a result, they have stood up a new wing of the trial in Brazil where the virus is more prevalent now.
