Rushed? RSV vaccines have been in process since the 1960's. The earlier versions were disastrous, and those were scrapped and they re-designed the project from scratch. There were promising results in 2011, and in 2013, the first clinical trials of what is NOW - 10 years later - a successful approved vaccine, were conducted. I've been a test subject for the Galaxo-Smith-Kline double-blind peer-reviewed trials for over two years, but the trial started before I volunteered for it. I was in one of the later batches.

There is nothing rushed about the RSV vaccine.
