We have a vaccine!

[Shamoan]

but its Russian...and the Russians are sneaky and cut corners. Maybe this will get some of you out of the basement. Maybe Putin will save college football.

Glad to see they're getting creative with the names.

And gave it to his daughter. Must not love her much.

Putin added that one of his daughters had already taken it; he said she had a slightly higher temperature after each dose, but that: "Now she feels well."

It has yet to go through crucial Phase 3 trials where it would be administered to thousands of people.

The claim of victory by Putin in the global push to make an effective vaccine against Covid-19 comes amid suggestions that Russia has cut essential corners in its development.

AstraZeneca and Japan have reached a deal for 120 Million doses of a Covid Vaccine, with 30 Million doses to be delivered in March

You can get a vaccine now if you have a phase III trial near you. I'm doing the Pfizer phase 3 trial now - two shots about 4 weeks apart. I'm fairly sure I got the vaccine instead of the placebo: arm hurt, had a slight temperature for a day. Get my booster next week, then I'm going to give it a week or two and do an antibody test. Looks like there are quite a few trials going on in MS.

So China finally produces a long lasting product, and Russia gives us cutting edge security updates for it.

Seems legit.

 

[ckDOG]

Awesome. Keep the board updated please.

Will they share with you the details? I saw some very detailed results the other day, but it's wayyyy over my head. My layman's takeaway was expect that your antibody and T cell count to be about 3x the quantity of those that have recovered from the virus. Basically a strong 1/2 punch of immunity and virus killing mechanisms. I'll definitely trade a sore arm and fever for that. Thanks for volunteering.

Also guaranteed to turn you into a communist. I'll wait for another.

 

[11thEagleFan]

Hey, I hope it works. And everyone else should too. I don’t give a **** how Russia got the science behind it, IF it’s safe and successful. If this is legit, I will buy and wear a t-shirt with Putin’s face on it.

Assuming he's telling the truth.

 

[Cooterpoot]

Go get the pneumonia vaccine. Probably just as effective.

 

[Apoplectic_Objurgator]

Hey but HCQ is a no go

They were throwing shade at America with that. Interesting.

wonder if the user develops a taste for Vodka and cabbage ?

No, they aren't going to tell me much of anything. These are double blind placebo control studies so the principle investigator at the site doesn't know what I've got, and I'm not supposed to know either, less it change my behavior. However, it's not like I'm in lockdown or anything, so I'm going to get the antibody test once I've had the second dose. I'm a professor and we start classes in a week, I really, really wanted to get in on these trials, as I'm going to be in contact with about 300 students a week, and those students will be in other classes with other students, etc. so I figure I'm getting exposure to about 1,500 young people who spent the summer doing God knows what, and will likely continue to engage in higher risk behaviors. I've got a daughter who survived cancer but is down a kidney and had a year of chemo and quite a bit of radiation, so anything I can do to lower the risk I'm doing.

maybe a US-made vaccine will be called Apollo and actually achieve the goal.

Well that stinks

Figured at the tail-end you'd get a summary of everything that did or didn't happen.

At any rate, good luck with mitigation efforts and I hope you and your daughter stay well.

 

[Xenomorph]

Pay attention Pfizer, Novartis or Roche

...one of you is about get a free trial on the formula you've been working on.

 

[RocketDawg]

I'm sure Trump was colluding with them. Probably giving them secret, inside information. **

 

[RocketDawg]

It'll have imbedded microchips.

Agree, but won't join you in buying a tee shirt.

[thekimmer]

What's this 'we' stuff comrade.

I am as pro vaccine as anybody but I ain't touching anything from russia. It is either poorly made, toxic as hell, contains some kind of mind control/tracking device or all three.

 

[T-TownDawgg]

They aged hundreds of viles of Covid under the Chernobyl sarcophagus and injected it in the Siberian bears addicted to sniffing gas wells and then used that serum on potato-vodka-guzzling Ukrainians at gunpoint

Probably a good bit of truth in that statement which is why I’m not trusting anything from Russia, especially if Putin is involved. That dude is as cold blooded as they come.

That's probably the microchip causing the pain
