Clinical trial volunteer Virginia Bliss took part in an early round of vaccine testing because of her 10-year-old daughter Suzanne. (Gillian Brockell,Jorge Ribas/The Washington Post)An experimental Zika vaccine has moved successfully into broader testing, with the first volunteer receiving a test dose in Houston earlier this week. Follow Crystal Woodley, a 33-year-old Baltimore resident, as she participates in an early round of clinical trials for a potential vaccine for the Zika virus. The experimental vaccine does not have any infectious material, so researchers say it can't cause a person to become infected with Zika. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the experimental vaccine or a placebo.
