Americans will hopefully begin receiving the COVID-19 vaccine as early as December 11, 'Warp Speed' advisor says

95% effective in preventing people from getting sick with COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus,"Our plan is to be able to ship vaccines to the immunization sites within 24 hours from the approval, so I would expect maybe a day or two after approval," Slaoui said on Sunday. "On the 11 or 12 of December, hopefully, the first people will be immunized across the United States.

"Normally, with the level of efficacy we have — 95% — 70% or so of the population being immunized would allow for true herd immunity to take place," Slaoui said. "That is likely to happen in the month of May or something like that based on our plans." He continued: "I really hope and look forward to seeing the level of the negative perception of the vaccine decrease and people's acceptance increases. That's going to be critical"Do you have a personal experience with the coronavirus you'd like to share? Or a tip on how your town or community is handling the pandemic?

A vaccine won't be distributed before Inauguration Day. Anytime before that would give President Trump a win, and that can't be allowed to happen.

Trump was briefed on the virus in January. And a mere four and a half months later 'warp speed' lumbered into existence in mid-May. “Warp”? As Inigo Montoya would say, “I don’t think that word means what you think it means”.

5Solae Next yr I maybe take it.

Let’s get these to all of the Trump supporters since they obey every word he says. He says it’s safe then start having MAGAt parades for vaccine sites.

Poison in a syringe!! 💯

Do American people in general actually believe in this vaccine being 90-95% success or people still looking with grain of salt as 5-10% failure?

good
