AstraZeneca has suspended international trials of its experimental coronavirus vaccine after an unexplained sickness in a participant, knocking the British drugmaker’s shares on Wednesday as prospects for an early rollout dimmed. 

“We’re happy to see vaccine builders assuring the scientific integrity of the trials and abiding by the usual pointers and guidelines for the event of vaccines,” the WHO mentioned by electronic mail in response to a Reuters question.

The WHO really helpful “strict adherence to established testing protocols in all vaccine trials to make sure the protection of volunteers and the eventual security and efficacy of vaccines”, it added.
