Ruud Dobber: COVID-19 Vaccine Trials To Begin Around The World 'As Soon As Possible' | MSNBC

40 comments

  1. The news on these vaccine trials seems to be promising, lately. I hope the progress continues.

    1. Mike Abel Hoping so too Mike. Worried about tourism next year in beautiful country I am in and reinfecting the nation.

      Auckland. NZ

    2. The Oxford vaccine is already being tested on 1,100 people in the UK and if that trial is successful the plan is to quickly move to phase III covering thousands of people globally including 30,000 in the US. Of course, there is no guarantee it will actually work. The same is true of he Morderna vaccine which has only been tested on a few people with no data released through scientific papers. Here’s hoping one of the vaccines works because without a vaccine things could get even worse.

    3. Peter D Hope all goes well with the vaccine in UK Peter. Smart cookies at Oxford. They voted NZ top on stringency and policies concerning virus.

      Tnx Oxford.

      Auckland. NZ

    1. @John Lightfoot there’s no indication that improvements will be made in 2020 and also they literally said 2 months ago vaccines would take at least a year to all of a sudden they have trials.

  2. I have been pro vaccine all my life, but i have grave reservations about a warp speed vaccination. I think I will wait six months after one comes out, to see how many people it maims or kills. This is the anti scientist Trump Regime funding this endeavor. Look how well testing went.

    1. ruth depew Very good advice, Ruth! Trump has made America distrust his motives and with good reason. Trump just wants to get re elected to avoid all the pending criminal charges against him when he is out of power. Ruth, stay safe! 🇺🇸🙏🏼

    2. As long as they post their data, especially the safety test data, I’m good with the vaccine. My biggest fear: vaccine induced immunopathology.

  3. Hiding covid data is continously putting the public at risk. How can we know what’s working and what to avoid. Keeping data secret under any circumstances is criminal. It’s literally a matter of life and death, whose behind this catastrophic idea mask under anything they can get away with. Again, as is often the case, we first, let the country go down the drain. Who cares who lives, or dies. People die anyway.

    1. Hiding Covid data from the public is unconscionable. We would ‘nt know the right approach to the reopening of the economy. Possibly be under a false sense of security and making the resurgence and sprouting of the virus more severe

  4. Sorry but Canada has their trails going for weeks now they are in the testing stage in humans very soon

    1. And other countries have already started human trials, Germany, they US, Israel and the UK.

  5. What ?? I thought that Trump has a Vaccine ? What happened to the bleach and Lysol injections ?

  6. I’am really skeptical anything good coming out of the tRump regime especially something as important as a vaccine against Covid-19. Look who’s heading tRumpies Covid-19 Task Force/Farce, evangelical-anti-science Pence & know nothing son-in law Jared Kushner. I’ll wait a while & see how many people it kills vs how many it saves & its efficacy.

    1. This is an Oxford project and has nothing to do with Trump. The UK and China are also purchasing doses.

  7. Avoid PUBLIC SCHOOLS trying to FORCE INOCULATIONS ON A NEW SUPPOSED VACCINE IS CRAZY. WE WILL NOT BE TEST SUBJECTS. MY KIDS ARE NOT GONNA BE DOCUMENTED BY A WORTHLESS PUBLIC SCHOOL SCAM.

  8. If trump had listened to his health officials back in Dec. Jan. Feb. 🇺🇸 America would not be in this situation w 100,000 DEAD. Oh and now, its “warp speed” on a vacine. Star trek lingo fr a president, and people believe this liar. Why? So.
    Vote straight Dem ticket in Nov. The 🌊 “blue wave is coming”🌊

  9. *Trump is OBSESSED with Katy Tur. He’s livid that she won’t sleep with his obese body* 🤢

  10. this sounds like another hydroxychloroquine fiasco. before saying “200M will be ready by…”, why don’t u frackin test it properly first. astra z, are you trying to bump up your stock price? itching to gouge the vaccine price? you’re in a good position to prove to anti-vaxxers that vaccines are deadly or don’t work. stop it, get some help.

    for now, this sounds like bs. let’s get reliable scientists to actually state if and when this or another viable and proven vaccine will be ready for the masses. we definitely don’t need a company businessman to tell us. federal government will need stop the drug company from gouging you or the government. to ensure it doesn’t happen at a critical time like this, don’t vote trump and don’t vote gop. you never know which one is trumper. i have had no issues voting republican or democrat up until trump and the gop had shown it’s ugly head years ago. don’t let them play you.
