NYT: Experts Confident Pandemic To Be Over ‘Far Sooner’ Than Expected, Trump Efforts ‘Working With Remarkable Efficiency’
DailyWire.com ^ | Oct 13, 202 | Ryan Saavedra

A new report from The New York Times indicates that experts have “genuine confidence” that the coronavirus pandemic will end “far sooner” than originally expected and that President Donald Trump’s Operation Warp Speed — the administration’s efforts to facilitate and accelerate the development, manufacturing, and distribution of vaccines, therapeutics, and diagnostics — has been “working with remarkable efficiency.”...

“Experts are saying, with genuine confidence, that the pandemic in the United States will be over far sooner than they expected, possibly by the middle of next year.”...

“Sometime in the next three months, health experts say, the F.D.A. is likely to begin granting approval to vaccines now in the works,” the report said... Operation Warp Speed — the government’s agreement to subsidize vaccine companies’ clinical trials and manufacturing costs — appears to have been working with remarkable efficiency. It has put more than $11 billion into seven vaccine candidates, and the F.D.A. has said it will approve any one that is at least 50 percent effective at preventing infection or reducing its severity.”

The report notes that Operation Warp Speed’s chief scientific adviser, Moncef Slaoui, believes that some of the early vaccine candidates will be 75 to 90 percent effective and that at least two will have won approval by sometime in January.

“By then, Dr. Slaoui has estimated, the factories under contract will have produced enough vaccine for 30 to 40 million people, and then another 80 to 90 million people every month after that,” the report added. “Assuming nothing goes wrong, he said, there will be enough doses for all 330 million Americans to be vaccinated by next June.”

I’ve been wearing my TRUMP2020 mask for a week now and so far no comments from the public. Not even getting dirty looks, sighs, thumbs up or thumbs down. Kinda disappointed...

Today I cut a 2 inch slit in surgical mask so I could walk around and at least breathe...

Good idea. I think I’ll try that. Maybe at least it won’t steam up my glasses.

The local hardware store had a young lady at the register; she had on a mask about as “safe” and see-thru as a window screen, but I think it was more intended to carry all the sparklies on it.

A couple days ago, someone else posted a link to this guy. Such a great idea, it's actually the first "pandemic" mask I've bought!

NYT has not gotten the memo. Scientisr have proven a reinfection with a different genetic strain. Pt was “poitive” in April. Right after the fda said a single target was acceptable even if it wasnt the COVID 19 specuc gene.
Just in time to Educate Trump on his immune claim. Purely a political weapon.
We will be masked and in lockdown for a very long time. And.. the vax wont be effective.. which we all knew anyway, as this is an RNA virus.

It makes me suspicious.

This makes Trump look really good.

I can’t help but wonder what’s up with that.

:::::::;;

Visual proof of no one showing up for their joint rally

Joey thinking he is in another state

Trump besting virus at his age

Trump protesters using the Dems show up at opponents rallies. In this case with more of them than attendees for Joey

People have tuned out Fauci

Nancy unglued

Barrett no notes take down, including unexpected george Floyd classic answer

Dem interrogators showing their outright disdain and lying on packing , O care scope in case and their not too slick infomercial for Dem campaign

Harris showing why she is a fool of a pick for VP and presumptive President

One more Maya Rudolph cameo of her will be a Palin/ Tina Fey redux portrayal as she has her mannerisms and non personality down especially her excruciating “ pause my turf” Moments

Hard to ign

“The vac won’t be effective”

Operation Warp Speed was designed to subsidize two major efforts, in each of four different technical approaches (8 in total), to ensure the likelihood of getting some good ones. They carefully picked the four technical approaches as well, to maximize the likelihood of success.

That is just the US Government program. Over a hundred development efforts are underway worldwide.

The Russian (Sputnik V) one that has already been approved (in Russia) and has been shipping for over a month, seems quite safe, and effective (although not strongly effective - something like 50%).

Bottom Line: We are virtually certain of having vaccines that work, in the next few weeks or months.

Jake Tapper and Wolf Blitzer have been asking ‘’hard hitting questions’’ on their shows lately, witness Blitzer with Pelosi recently and now this with the NYT.

My take on it is they know Biden is going to lose so they want to appear as if they had been acting tough on Democrats all along.

Therapeutics, vaccines, real data - this COVID thing is winding down.

There only so much more than can milk out of it.

Not with an Rna virus.. it just makes copies without the dna mechanism. I am sure will be a big money sucker for the taxpayers though. Ridiculous.
I have been around so many people that have had iui t. More of them died in a shower accident than covid.
