Pfizer has now announced they have a vaccine that is 90% effective.
Have you heard Gov Cuomo's comments?

Amazing this is announced first thing Monday morning following a weekend where the presidential election winner was announced.
Amazing timing.
(Read in green)
Maybe, maybe not. Wait until you read the fine print.
The Pfizer vaccine can only be given after you have been confirmed infected. The vaccine must be stored at -100 degrees F. Both doses must be administered by 1 hour infusion (IV drip), generally at your local chemo treatment center if they have enough chairs & personnel.
Anyone here read Russian? I'm going to need help translating from cyrillic on the package insert. The Russkies claims theirs is 92 % effective.

The part about -100 degree storage is going to be a logistical nightmare. But it is my understanding is that it is 2 traditional shots by syringe 21 days apart for uninfected people. The distribution center for the U.S. is Kalamazoo, Michigan for the entire country. Of course the Russians vaccine is more effective, at least according to the Russians. I believe them almost as much as I do the Chinese. Bob
don't forget the micro chip
Joe's corona advisors (including some guy named emanuel 😉) have declared that we should distribute to the world before distribution in the US.
Here's something about that:

corona vaccine is fine. can we get one for budwieser and dos exe
Yes, especially considering corona viruses cause about 20% of common colds. I'm not buying into the fact this has any lasting effect. Lasting side effects not withstanding.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
I asked a Mexican engineer where I worked about Corona. “Nobody in Mexico drinks that stuff” he said. He mentioned Modelo and another I’d never heard of.
Can they just add the vaccine to the KoolAid some folks are already drinking?
This is a vaccine, not a cure. Like the cold and flu, this will evolve to the point this particular vaccine will not longer protect, and other vaccines will be needed. Neither the cold nor the flu is one virus, they are many viruses. Covid is likely to become less lethal over time. Killing of your host base is not a great survival strategy for any organism or almost living thing.
From the link:
'Monday's news that pharmaceutical company Pfizer's early results on a new COVID-19 vaccine showed a 90% efficacy rate on an initial clinical trial have given concert professionals hope that the business can start mounting a return in 2021. As part of that preparation, Ticketmaster has been working on a framework for post-pandemic fan safety that uses smart phones to verify fans' vaccination status or whether they've tested negative for the coronavirus within a 24 to 72 hour window.
Many details of the plan, which is still in development phase, will rely on three separate components -- the Ticketmaster digital ticket app, third party health information companies like CLEAR Health Pass or IBM's Digital Health Pass and testing and vaccine distribution providers like Labcorp and the CVS Minute Clinic.'
Screw this. Apparently no concerts for Don until this garbage blows over. Even if I get the vaccine, I'll be damned if I am going to show my papers to some clown with a necklace badge.
More and more people are ignoring the stupid and demonstrably ineffective mask mandates that various states and cities have implemented. I would guess I would be on the hook for a couple of thousand dollars in fines by now if they were being enforced and prosecuted. To be fair, they have their place. I keep one with me and wear it when I think it appropriate.
We are finally hitting critical mass with this virus and will see infections begin to drop significantly well before widespread distribution of a vaccine has any meaningful effect. We should have done this in April like many of us suggested, but better late than never I guess.

Timing is suspicious................
You don't suppose that Google getting involved with personal medical records a couple years ago has something to do with what is going on today?
Not wanting to start any conspiracy theories but 🤐
Ya'll may find this interesting or not...
