Army General Gustave Perna credited “the true unsung heroes” of the COVID-19 pandemic, “the over 100,000 Americans who supported clinical trials, who made delivering hundreds of millions of vaccines possible.” Perna made his remarks virtually to the Henry Jackson Foundation “Heroes of Military Medicine” awards ceremony May 6, 2021 in Washington, D.C., where he was honored for his senior leadership of the COVID-19 vaccine and therapeutics effort.
