Although vaccines against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 have now been found safe and efficacious, there remains an urgent global health need to test both these vaccines and additional vaccines against the same virus. Under variable conditions, either standard or unusual designs would for both familiar and often-missed reasons make continued testing possible and ethical.
尽管针对严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2 的疫苗现在已被证明是安全有效的，但仍迫切需要在全球范围内测试这些疫苗和针对同一病毒的其他疫苗。在不同的条件下，出于常见和经常被忽视的原因，无论是标准设计还是非标准设计，都可以继续进行测试，这在伦理上也是可行的。
