https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sc...d-19-vaccine-clinical-trials-speed-safety/ampI’ve come to the realization that here in the US there’s no realistic way to reopen everything without huge spikes in cases which then lead to hospitalizations and deaths. So really at this point we all need to hope the vaccine comes sooner than later.
The good news is there do seem to be a few very promising options that are already into Stage III of clinical trials which would put them on track to be available to the public by January 2021 or possibly sooner. Astra Zeneca has started their Stage III trial and Moderna is supposed to be starting their’s within a month. These are the large population trials, like 10,000ish people, and would be the final step towards approval. These two vaccines (along with a few others) have shown promising results in early stage trials so we aren’t just throwing crap at the wall here.
What have you guys been hearing? Will you be lined up to get the vaccine? I work in healthcare so I’m guessing it will be mandatory for us all, and I’m ok with that.
