Have you been exposed to cold or flu? Join a Study against Viral Respiratory Illnesses

We’re conducting a research study to assess an investigational drug to see if it can protect against symptoms or complications from viral respiratory illness. If you share a room with one or more people or live or work with children and meet other study criteria, you may be eligible to participate.

Consider participating in The POSITS Study evaluating the effectiveness of an investigational drug in reducing the severity of symptoms from respiratory illnesses -such as cold or flu. People working at a childcare center or living with children aged 10 or younger attending school or daycare may be eligible to participate.

You could be eligible to take part in a Viral Respiratory Illness Study for healthy volunteers aged 18 - 45 years old who could be at risk of catching a cold or flu due to living or working in a crowded place. Compensation is up to $1,150.
