I don't know who "Michael Thau (@MichaelThau)" is but it's roll up your sleeve not role.

As Mike Pence said, the vaccine will be here, and antivaxxers need to stop playing politics with peoples lives...

[CaptainK]

No thank you.

Sorry, too much to read on a Friday night. :)

This is a bit good points, a good oars not quite right.

Odd.

Mr. Thau clearly is a Democrat trying to scare up fear on our side of the dial.

The FDA phases (1, 2, and 3) are comprised of increasing numbers of volunteers who receive a medication or a placebo (think sugar pill), then their reactions are analyzed and recorded. If there is a negative reaction =, it will be disclosed and the recipient free to accept or not, loaded up with information. There is no “trying to put something over on someone” as Thau infers.

Johnson and Johnson is using 30,000 people in its Phase 3 trials. (I may be mis-remembering -it may be 60,000)

BTTT!!!!!!

On the frightening side: Two of the leading contenders in the race to produce a vaccine are using experimental technology that artificially stimulates an immune response by… hold on to your seats… genetically altering your cells with RNA from the virus so they start producing proteins from its outer shell.

Too me this sounds like the vaccine would induce an auto-immune disease.

As if I had any “enthusiasm” in the first place.

[cpdiii]

It would take many many many paragraphs to counter this extreme bull shit.

I have not time nor desire to waste my efforts.

I a, not an anti-vaxer, but I have an immune condition that causes by body to react to my own histamine. I have had one of these auto-immune reactions to a cold before and I don’t want to ever go through that again. The idea of vaccine for the Covid though, scares me. My plan has been to wait until I see the reactions of others to the vaccine.

The treatment that Trump had sounds more promising because it involved a transfusion with antibodies to the Covid already in it, so it avoids triggering the hyper immune system response which is what kills people. The problem with widespread distribution is obvious, though.

In the meantime, I will just keep doing the same thing, mostly staying home and being careful.

Latest statistics are 0-19 year olds 99.997% survival from covid, 20-49 year olds 99.6% survival rate, 50-69,99.4%,
70 and older 96.4% survival.
Why do want The vaccine

[iontheball]

We don’t need no stink’n vaccine.
