- woodruffw 5y agoThis is a correspondence piece, offering the opinion of a WHO working group. The opinion is also not the one you might assume: it proposes unblinding some subjects, not researchers, based on COVID-19 morbidity risk. From a cursory search of NEJM and PubMed, I can't find evidence that any US-approved vaccines were allowed to run unblinded trials. But I could be wrong.
