Vaccine trial stopped after neurological symptoms detected

LONDON โ€“ A woman who received an experimental coronavirus vaccine developed severe neurological symptoms that prompted a pause in testing, a spokesman for drugmaker AstraZeneca said Thursday.

It also is testing the vaccine in thousands of people in Britain, and in smaller studies in Brazil and South Africa. Temporary holds of large medical studies arenโ€™t unusual, and investigating any serious or unexpected reaction is a mandatory part of safety testing.
