a reply to: vonclod You ask a great question. Right now, the US FDA is studying the Pfizer preliminary vaccine test results. Even for emergency use authorization, the FDA must certify the safety of any COVID-19 vaccine. I'd say it's a 50/50 likelihood that any such vaccine will have to be given each year, like the flu shot. Time will tell. That type of information is not available from a preliminary vaccine trial.

I hope this is legit and works!
Pfizer is the big shot in the pharmacy world, number one. I've been to all the major pharmacies as an IT guy but never Pfizer in New York City. It’s a major corporation in the world.
These pharmaceuticals are powerful, and they’re like a world in themselves—big giant complexes with many buildings and like a small city inside the plants.
It may be no coincidence the number one pharmacy in the world got the vaccine.
Although Vaccines aren't the only answer, let's hope it will help eliminate this disease

the vaccine doesn't target the virus.
That's the beauty of the mnra vaccines, they send a message to the cell, encoding it to make proteins (which is basically your immune system)
the vaccine tricks your cells in putting up a defense against the virus before you get it.
Normally you should first come into contact with the virus before your cells make defense.

Interesting Democrats don't want it released until more people have died, oops, until Biden is sworn in as President.

I asked if he thought it was worth it. He said during those 5 hours if you had asked him he would have said no. But by the next afternoon, 24 hours after getting the 2nd shot (when we talked to him) he said absolutely yes.
Did you ask your friend why they thought it was worth it? Is your friend part of an at risk age group? Does your friend have an underlying medical condition?
What makes it worth it?

"The Democrats" can't release the Pfizer vaccine because it isn't ready yet, it still has more trials to pass.
Also, Pfizer has publicly denounced politics when it comes to their vaccine.

I would expect you lot to believe that. The reason many people are uncomfortable is that IF it was released now (it won't be. Just getting the required freezers in place is no small thing) it would be up to the Trump Administration to manage the distribution. And the Trump Administration has repeatedly shown that it is incapable of managing anything. They are incompetent and complacent and staffed by idiots.
