DETROIT The Henry Ford Health System is seeking 30,000 volunteers to participate in its Moderna vaccine study to determine whether a two-dose vaccine could prevent COVID-19 infection in those who are exposed. The National Institutes of Health officials said Henry Ford Health is the only hospital in Michigan selected as a trial site for phase three of the Moderna mRNA-1273 Coronavirus Efficacy (COVE) vaccine study. Henry Ford Health System is proud to be part of the fight against this deadly virus, said Adnan Munkarah, executive vice president and chief clinical officer of Henry Ford Health System. Our best hope of controlling COVID-19 is with a vaccine, said Dr. Marcus Zervos, division chief of Infectious Disease for Henry Ford Health System. Each participants health and safety are our top priorities, Munkarah said.
