Which vaccine?

@Mik said in Which vaccine?:
I'm not sure we are going to be offered a choice.
Seems there will be a trade off between getting one as early as possible and getting the exact one you want. Unless you just get lucky. Also where you live matters. The more rural your area, for example, the less likely you’ll get Pfizer.
To answer the original question, though, I don’t know. Realistically we’ll have a lot more info before we really have to make a choice. Likely there will be efficacy data on 5 or 6 options by year end.

Because of the need to keep the very cold environment?
I was thinking that depends on where they make the stuff.
If they made it in Las Vegas, people would go to the vaccine and solve the transportation problem.

Certainly is.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

That’s a change, Loki. Within days of the election you actually posted that we weren’t going to hear about Covid anymore.

Well I didn’t anticipate the vaccine savior coming so fast and then Coumo wanting to delay it such that Biden would get credit for saving the country.
So now we have to wait until we can figure out how this becomes a Biden win.... thanks for helping me answer my own question.

I very much doubt that Oxford University delayed announcing their vaccine in order to lavish praise on Joe Biden.
I realize that many Americans believe that the freaking universe revolves around Washington DC, but really chaps....get a grip on yourselves, if you haven't done so already.
And if the American drug companies did delay in this manner, it might be worth pondering why they would do such a thing, other than being part of a global conspiracy secretly funded by George Soros. Because if George Soros is secretly behind the vaccine, I tip my hat to him!

I’ll try all of them, what the hell,
90 plus 95 plus 95 = 280% efficacy. What could go wrong?

Quite frankly I could care less about the past, what I want to see is a strategy and pressure to get everyone the vaccine as soon as possible. I’m astounded I am either an outlier or too stupid to understand why the news isn’t running with this, big time. Instead we see a death count and the death of democracy. Wtf.

@Jolly hopefully President Trump already has a plan that has been detailed out. And hopefully President elect Biden will use that and build on that to maximize the speed of the vaccine to people

The plan, or at least the gist of one, has been in place for several weeks. Trump has tasked the military with transporting the vaccine. As for storage and innoculation, I do not know.

And we haven't, at least not in a particular way.

Random sample - FWIW (because I’m familiar with it):
The Daily is a podcast by the NYT. Picks one story from the day and does a 20 min episode on it.
Over the last 10 days, 5 episodes have been about COVID. The other 5 have been about election, and a smattering of other topics.
Another datapoint: my Canadian parents. They’re super worried about COVID now, and they don’t even have a Trump.

I’ll try all of them, what the hell,
90 plus 95 plus 95 = 280% efficacy. What could go wrong?

LOL, bach. Count me in on that. My math might be different, but my hopes the same.
