Who will produce the first mass Covid vaccine?
Who's going to be the first to mass market in the USA? Cast your public vote in the poll. Here are the rules to determine the winner.
1. We're the USA. We don't care if the Chinese or Russians or North Koreans stick stuff in their people. Only the USA counts. 2. It'll be hard to get exact figures, but as a general rule let's count the winner as the first organization that gets vaccinations inside the bodies of 25 million Americans in at least 25 different states. I'll include what I think are the leading contenders in the poll, and you can read about them here, as of August 16th, 2020: https://www.theguardian.com/world/ng...avirus-vaccine https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/...stitute%20one. |

It sounds like Johnson & Johnson may be accelerating into the lead. Even though they're entering Phase 3 later than others, they've got a single-dose vaccine in the works that'll apparently move faster than the two-dose vaccines everyone else is testing.

Listen to the Freakonomics podcast on Moderna and their approach. It’s fascinating.

Anyone with sense will avoid a Moderna vaccine like the plague. They were on the verge of bankruptcy before the gov’t dropped $450+ mil into their laps to fast track an experimental DNA-altering technology. Gates and Fauci are both heavily invested in them and it’s the only reason they’re at the front of the line.
I believe to this day they haven’t released most of the data from trials, but they did acknowledge in a press release that 20% of participants in the first trial had severe adverse effects. And only the healthiest specimens were allowed to participate. Imagine the percentage of the general population that could be injured. This thing literally changes your DNA and will affect the DNA of future generations. |

That is....not what that vaccine does. I mean, kind of, but it's just not nefarious like that. Pfizer is using an mRNA vector as well.
They did have some adverse side effects with dosage that was changed. |

That's not how they are SUPPOSED to work but then again, we don't have any current mRNA vaccines that do work, do we? Not that I know of. It's completely new tech.
I'd rather take a more traditional approach first. |
