Would you volunteer to get a virus in exchange for $ 3,800? In the United States, researchers from the National Institute of Allergy and Contagious Diseases are going to pay that amount to 80 volunteers who let themselves be infected with type A influenza, a severe flu, to study the symptoms it produces in the body. Those who undergo the study will be hospitalized to monitor their health status.
