Its naive to assume there is zero risk though and that a sum of £3000 is purely for the inconvenience of you having to spend 2 weeks away from home. I reckon the risks would be suitably low to allow human testing in the first place and probably still a good way to make quick cash but there are still risks. If not, why would you be surrounded by doctors and nurses.

I never said there were no risks!! And I'd dispute your use of the word 'dangerous' too. A lot of previous study went in to this course, and there has been much research. I suppose you could equate 'risk' to 'danger' but I wouldn't go as far as 'dangerous'. I've been reading up on the paperwork surrounding this course for some time now and I've come to the conclusion there is nothing I really need work about. I've been here 5 days, I've been exposed to the drug since I got here and unpacked and have experienced no side effects. With this kind of drug, if any side effects occur, they are very apparent within 48 hours.
There will be no future side effects either. In the 50 years this kind of drug has been available, no long-term or hazardous side effects have evver been reported.
It's as safe as it gets here
