Default Malaria worth 4k?

Want to catch malaria — and get $4,000 for it?

Volunteers would be bitten by infected mosquitoes in vaccine study

SEATTLE - The Seattle Biomedical Research Institute will pay volunteers as much as $4,000 to be bitten by mosquitoes infected with malaria.
Scientists say no lives are in danger because the volunteers can be cured. The institute is testing which vaccines work fastest.
The head of the program, Dr. Patrick Duffy, said volunteers will spend several nights under medical supervision in a hotel.


All of the human trials will be reviewed for safety by the Food and Drug Administration.
Someone tell me where I can sign up!

not easy as it sounds, you'd probably have to go through a lot of testing and meet certain criterias.
