RE: Covid Vaccine - dave - 01-14-2021
I got an email from my doctor's office today announcing that they will have vaccines and had a link to an application.
I filled one out for myself and mom since she's nearly 95...hope they will vaccinate her and me too since I'm her caregiver. Need to add my sister but she's not a patient at that practice.
BTW, this practice treats mostly old folks -- I'm usually the youngest person in the waiting room and I turned 60 in November.
I've got a feeling they won't ever have enough for all the gray hairs...

Hospital in Texas offering $500 to get shots! It's a shame that some folks want shots so bad and others gotta be paid. I feel bad for both sides!!! Prayers for you and your mom Dave!!! My mom is 75 and she feels the same as you do.

Let us know how it goes!! I'm curious to understand how the distribution is going. I'm a logistics guy by heart and the thought of all aspects of distribution is something that I find really cool.

I guess that's a vagus question. But similar to how they redo the flu vaccine each year, I would think that a tweak wouldn't require full scale validation or field trials before being released, right?
Takes about a month to redesign the vaccine. Since manufacturing is already in place, the transition should be instantaneous. However, regulatory barricades may still require clinical trials, which will take 6-9 months.

"The CEO of Covid-19 vaccine maker Moderna warned Wednesday that the coronavirus that has brought world economies to a standstill and overwhelmed hospitals will be around "forever.""
"Public health officials and infectious disease experts have said there is a high likelihood that Covid-19 will become an endemic disease, meaning it will become present in communities at all times, though likely at lower levels than it is now."

It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine.
