Tucson was the 'top enrolling site in the United States,' according to the doctor who led the local portion of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine trial. PatParrisTV was one of those participants: Find out why the trial has been deemed a success
KGUN 9 news anchor Pat Parris was a volunteer for the Moderna vaccine trial here in Tucson."I think we'd have to call it a huge success," said Dr. Jack McGettigan, who led the Tucson portion of the Moderna trial.
Pat's involvement in the trial began with a first dose on Aug. 4, 2020. His second dose came on Sept. 1, 2020, at Quality of Life Medical and Research Center near TMC."We were fortunate, we were the top enrolling site in the United States," McGettigan said."Thanks again to Tucson and the huge outpouring of help."
"Which is what we were hoping for," said McGettigan."Obviously we'd love for people not to have gotten it at all, but when they did get it, in the people I saw, their symptoms were so minimal relatively speaking. We were all very grateful that that's how it turned out."
