Drug firm Johnson&Johnson has started a late-stage trial of its two-dose coronavirus vaccine in United Kingdom. The country's government is set to enroll 6,000 volunteers for the trials of the vaccine. Johnson&Johnson signed an agreement with the British government in August for the two-phase trial of the vaccine. Volunteers will be given the first dose of either a placebo or the experimental shot named Ad26COV2.
