Wow, so that means we can offer this vaccine to everyone, not only "high-risk groups" right?

...Right?

    It is only trials. Until we see the results we can't know. There have been vaccines that don't work. There have been vaccines with nasty side effects. Until we get data we have no idea of this really works in humans. Even if it works we don't know the risks - if any. Maybe this is good for high risk but not with it for low risk. Maybe this is wonderful and everyone should get it. For now we are just waiting and seeing
