They are trying but it's a race against the virus disappearing, they actually want the virus to stay because if the spread is too low, not enough of the volunteers will catch it and the trial will be unable to definitively say if the vaccine works.

"An Oxford University vaccine trial has only a 50 per cent chance of success because coronavirus is fading so rapidly in Britain, a co-leader of the project has warned."

"We have to run as fast as possible before the disease disappears so we can demonstrate that the vaccine is effective."

"It's a race against the virus disappearing, and against time," Professor Hill said."

In the interests of bending statistics, until Norwich skewed yesterdays news.... only one Premier League footballer had tested positive - whilst six championship footballers had tested negative last week.

In other words, poor footballers are 6x more likely to suffer Covid that rich(er) footballers

Interesting also that the Norwich footballer is self isolating for just one week and his close contacts are not being asked to self isolate at all.... one rule for them etc etc
