The evaluation of a vaccine candidate targeting COVID-19 and collection of samples to support translational immunology research support the broader VRC mission.  For this project, sample collection was conducted under the VRC 200 protocol while the evaluation of an investigational vaccine candidate was conducted under the DMID 20-003 protocol.
