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. |

If their RNA vaccine is successful it changes the whole ballgame on vaccines and their development |

I voted for them due to their fast jump out of the starting gate, and I figure if they've got the NIH in their corner they're onto something. But I'm also cautious that they've never put a product to market. I worry a little bit that they'll turn out to be a shadow puppet that makes the CEO rich. My finger keeps hovering over the 'sell' button on the small amount of their stock that I have. I also have stock in Editas, on a whole different topic. Again, I know nothing about what they're doing, but gene editing seems to be a potential game changer. If what they're doing works, then the world will be a different place. |

I can't say how I know, but I'm pretty confident it'll be one of the European companies.

I'm guessing the NBA. They're, apparently, moving testing science forward faster than anyone else.

Doesn't seem like there is a strong backing for them. I bought in at 80cents and rode it up to 6.21 when I bailed. It cratered since then though, and continues to trickle down in value. I think last I checked it was around 2.60-ish.
The IBM Watson thing was a cool step for them same with getting added to the Russell 2000 and 3000, but I don't think they are a true player. |

If you want to say who will produce the first PUBLICLY AVAILABLE vaccine that is approved in both the US and EU with an efficacy rate of greater than 50%... we have a debate.
Otherwise, it will be: Russia, Oxford, Moderna, in that order. Unless there is some bullshit rushing of Moderna to be out by the election, which is completely possible. Last edited by saphojunkie; 08-17-2020 at 10:16 AM.. |
