We are proud of the role our member companies have played in the development of COVID vaccines, which have been supported by overwhelmingly positive and reliable data. Going forward, an increasing number of governments, healthcare systems, research sites and sponsors are requiring vaccination for the protection of clinical trial participants, medical and healthcare staff, and others. In keeping with our industry’s ongoing commitment to public health and patient safety, ACRO supports our member companies as they strongly recommend that their employees be fully vaccinated as quickly as possible, based on vaccine availability at the country and local level.
