In England, about 100 people have been inoculated with an experimental malaria vaccine in two clinical trials. Now, they no longer have access to the clinical trial staff if that vaccine were to cause an adverse reaction in their bodies.

It is literally a violation of international law
[The Declaration of Helsinki, a decades-old set of ethical principles for medical research that American institutions and others throughout the world have endorsed, lays out ethical guidelines under which medical research should be conducted, requiring that researchers care for participants throughout a trial, and report the results of their findings to the communities where trials were conducted.]
Thanks, but I’m not actually sure that the Declaration of Helsinki is legally enforceable. I’ve just skimmed through some search results and it sounds like this is mainly guidance with the moral imperative placed upon those running the trials.
