Gerardo Sandoval: Media Artist, Health Advocate and a Volunteer for a Clinical Vaccine Trial.
from HealthCare UnTold · host Gerado Sandoval, Barbara Ann Garcia, Vanessa White
Gerado received a vaccine as a volunteer for the Moderna Clinical Vaccine Trial. This trial was a blind study, so he did not know whether he got the "real" vaccine or a placebo. Gerado's family wanted to help move the vaccine approval forward because they wanted to protect their son's future as well as to ensure that there was representation from the Latino and Latinx communities. His hope is that he can encourage the Latino and Latinx communities to get protected by taking the vaccine when it is available.
