    1. Pence lied about the admin being responsible! Pfizer took NO money to develop the vaccine from trump admin! So explode that …where the sun don’t shine!

    1. We need replication studies, this is very standard in any scientific trial or study. You need to obtain statistically significant results over multiple replications.

  1. It’s exciting. I just want to know more about long term immunity expectations. Is this going to be something we have to get every year like with the flu shot?

  2. *stop saying pfizers vaccine. Its by Biontech, a german company! Wtf? It was developed in Mainz Germany, not the US. Pfizer only supported with money.!*

    1. Just saw this reply after posting mine. The two main researchers (and founders) at Biontech are Germans of Turkish ethnic background, Uğur Şahin and Özlem Türeci.

    2. Was biontech the company drumpf wanted to buy *exclusive* vaccine rights of? (Which was obviously refused)

    3. @Marc-Julien Verfuerth this is why people all over the world have issues with america. Whats next? Mercedes american? BMW? Adidas? Porsche? VW? Aldi? Lidl? Its like with the german scientists that build NASA… Again its US only “america first” right?..

  3. And based on the first 5 games of the year, the Chicago Bears looked pretty good as well. 🙄
    There’s a reason why vaccines aren’t approved before the tests are complete.

  4. It made me laugh when he said the FDA has a tough external committee. All you need to do is turn on any TV and listen to a drug commercial with the Dozens of deadly horrible possible side-effects that they Choose to mention, which are all seen as quite acceptable by this committee. Maybe this will be the exception–but please don’t tout their record for the concern of our well-being.

    1. @Josef Thank you Trump for killing half a million Americans (that’s how many Americans will be death or dying the moment Biden takes office). The Trump administration didn’t spend a dollar on pfizers research (in their defense, they did place an order). In fact most of the research was done in Germany, with Pfizer mainly as a manufacturer (one of the main production plants is in Puurs, Belgium). This is NOT a f*ing “made-in-USA” thing. Did you dream Trump cared one bit about you or the rest of the US? Dream again.

  5. Let‘s be very clear here: the vaccine in question was developed by the German pharmaceutical research company Biontech, Pfizer‘s role up to now was rather funding the project, and will be industrialization (large-scale production), and commercialization from later onwards. Hence, it‘s not „Pfizer‘s vaccine“ by any stretch of imagination. And the main brains behind the development were, to my knowledge two German researchers with Turkish ethnic background, Uğur Şahin and Özlem Türeci. Give credit where credit is due.

  6. I know a lady who supposedly had COVID and she said she had no symptoms but also said she wouldn’t wish it on her worst enemy. People are literally becoming insane.

  7. Gotta love it, vaccine looks promising after the election!! Biden should use Trumps playbook and take the credit for it!!
