Paid Members Rob Lowe Posted February 16, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted February 16, 2012 I applied for a flu one a couple of times, primarily because successful applicants did the trial in a sealed hospital for four weeks, then got three grand at the end of it. Fucking yes!Unfortunately even if you get past the pretty strict application they then take a blood test to check out whether your body has interacted with the different flus and bacteria they are testing for. (I believe if you already had it, your body fights it off as usual and then your useless to test on.)I 'failed' the first blood test, then when I went for a second time I asked how often people pass. The nurse said its different for each thing they test for but its around 1 in 10 and 3 in 10. So after I failed the second test I couldnt be bothered to go another eight monthly visits just to statistically try to get on one.That was about 18 months ago though, fuck I should have just gone.

Magnum Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 If it came down to it, I'd much rather do this to make a bit of cash than work in McDonalds or Tesco or something. I have a heart condition though, so fuck knows what I'd be eligible for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
