Johnson & Johnson vaccine tested in Alken: "It is a big first that this is happening here".
Candidates are thoroughly screened before being vaccinated. "There are people with certain conditions who should not take part, but that has to do with their resistance," says doctor Hilde Bollen from Anima. She examines a test subject who is going over a checklist with the doctor. "I really want to participate", says the candidate who is about to be injected. "I want to return to normal life very quickly. Now I have a one in two chance of getting the real vaccine." She has no qualms about taking part as a test subject. "It's like the flu vaccine and it's a reliable company, so it's not a problem for me.
