Original Note:
Vaccines and other meds have similar rules. When the medication is tested for a given illness it is normal to test it against a placebo. But when an effective med is already known it would be unethical to use a placebo. The control group for a new med normally gets the old med. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1069666/
