vaccine trial

Shot efficacy study

A vaccine trial is a clinical study testing a vaccine's safety and effectiveness before public use.

Trials proceed through phases: early phases test safety and dosing in small groups, while later phases involve thousands of participants to measure protection against disease.

The vaccine trial showed 95% efficacy against infection.

Results determine whether regulators approve the vaccine for widespread distribution.
