The New York Times published an article this morning about vaccines in UK and soon to be in the US
BUT!

this is a good point - LL to the rescue:

The vaccines will be much less effective at preventing death and illness in 2021 if they are introduced into a population where the coronavirus is raging — as is now the case in the U.S. That’s the central argument of a new paper in the journal Health Affairs. (One of the authors is Dr. Rochelle Walensky of Massachusetts General Hospital, whom President-elect Joe Biden has chosen to run the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.)

An analogy may be helpful here. A vaccine is like a fire hose. A vaccine that’s 95 percent effective, as Moderna’s and Pfizer’s versions appear to be, is a powerful fire hose. But the size of a fire is still a bigger determinant of how much destruction occurs.

"The third expected EUA is from CytoDyn Inc. (OTCMKTS: CYDY). This is a repurposed monoclonal antibody that is the only remaining phase 3 drug candidate with a mortality benefit that has not had to resize its study after meeting an interim checkpoint. This drug has a stellar safety profile with over a thousand patients and no SAE’s related to the drug. It is an anomaly because leronlimab showed it actually reduced the side effects over placebo by as much as 60% in a phase 2 mild to moderate study. Now that’s a safe drug! The company is hosting an investor update on Thursday December 10, 2020 and may be close to finishing its trial. "

Woww! Very nice info. Thank you!!!
