Volunteers needed: Human guinea pigs to be paid $7000 to be infected with coronavirus

"The 24 volunteers will be infected with two common strains of coronavirus, 0C43 and 229E, which are similar to COVID-19. However, these two strains only cause a mild respiratory illness.

The infected patients will then be used to test antiviral medications as well as help develop a vaccine for COVID-19.

Medical staff will collect nasal samples, blood and dirty tissues and measure them for the 'viral load'.

They won't be allowed to exercise or have physical contact with other people, and their diet will be controlled.

However they will be allowed to spend their time watching TV and playing video games."

Dollars to donuts they get far more takers for this $7000 offer than they would have ever imagined.
