Those doses will first go to the most vulnerable populations including the elderly or severely immunocompromised. Health care workers, nurses and doctors, among others combatting the virus on the front lines, will also receive the vaccine first.

Fauci said Monday he believes that by the end of April 2021, “everybody else” will start to get vaccinated. That process could take at least a few months to complete, he warned.

Have Pfizer and Moderna finished their trials yet? I think both results were announced in the form of corporation news.

More evidence that the virus had circulated in Italy before it was detected in China:
Researchers find coronavirus was circulating in Italy earlier than thought
The Italian researchers’ findings, published by the INT’s scientific magazine Tumori Journal, show 11.6% of 959 healthy volunteers enrolled in a lung cancer screening trial between September 2019 and March 2020 had developed coronavirus antibodies well before February.

A further SARS-CoV-2 antibodies test was carried out by the University of Siena for the same research titled “Unexpected detection of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in the pre-pandemic period in Italy”.

It showed that four cases dating back to the first week of October were positive for antibodies, meaning they had got infected in September, Giovanni Apolone, a co-author of the study, told Reuters.

Unfortunately those announcements have little effect on a conditioned viewpoint. A couple of days ago I heard on the radio, that Jilin? had informed us that they found traces of covid on frozen food from NZ.It drew responses from the listening public like

"China infected the world with the virus and now they are complaining about us sending it back.....F them."

sigh such a narrow viewpoint. They don't realise the same product might have been sent to other countries.

Neither Pfizer or Moderna have finished there trials yet given that there were some complications that they have to deal with. Also to note is that these two companies have to hyped up to hell and back and it is heavily connected to the stock market while the Chinese vaccine is not. Hence trusting either companies wouldn't be wise because they are pushing too hard to get the vaccine out ahead of China that they are liable to make errors. At least China is testing in many different nations as of now while I don't or rather find it quite difficult to find out which nations are being tested for either of these two companies since that is the part that is quite secretive I feel

I'm in redneck country and white people won't even get near me. I sold something online locally and met in person and the person (with MAGA hat and no mask) left the cash on the ground for me to pick up.

I bet you if I didn't have an English first name, they wouldn't even meet me.


I thought people from those necks of the woods believe coronavirus is hoax... What would they be afraid of?

I mean right after that deal I decided Trump really needs to go even if he's Chuan Jianguo.

These people are endangering my life. The guy was old too, in the vulnerable group. But was more afraid of me wearing an N95 mask.

Shoulda worn a 3M halfpiece with a 60926 cartridge/filter just to rub it in...

I use it now when taking out the trash, changing cat litter, plumbering a clogged tiolet, etc cant smell nothing at all...

They are back in stock on amazon now, apparently not many people buy them. Normal masks are a joke in comparison

Yup, the next wave is here...

Also, I have previously thought that in Chinese hospitals, there were a lot of favoritism but the professionalism in American hospitals would not allow it. That's one more myth about American superiority shattered...

A nurse in a strained El Paso hospital says the sickest COVID-19 patients are put in a doctor-less room called 'the pit' where they are given 3 chances to be revived before workers let them die

    .
  • In the video, Rivers said the hospital's sickest COVID-19 patients were put in a "pit" that doctors don't enter for fear of exposing themselves to the virus.
  • "My first day at orientation, I was told that whatever patients go into the pit, they only come out in a body bag," she said, adding that this posting has been her worst during the pandemic.
  • The hospital told

    it "cannot fully verify the events expressed" in Rivers' video but acknowledged the "difficult, physical and emotional toll" the pandemic has taken on health workers.
Rivers said doctors at the hospital would not enter the area, and nurses like herself who were stationed in them were under orders to perform CPR just three times on a patient before letting them die.

"The doctors don't even step foot in those COVID rooms to see those patients ...We as nurses, it's OK for us to be exposed, but you as doctors, you don't even come in there. You can't get exposed, but we can and y'all are making all the money," she said.

Rivers also accused the hospital of giving special treatment to the wife of a doctor once. She said this woman, whom a nurse at one point called a "VIP" patient, was the only person to make it out of the ICU alive during her nearly a month at the hospital.

"They pulled out all the stops for that woman, it was nothing that they didn't do for that woman. And guess what? She was the one patient that made it out of the ICU alive, and was able to downgrade to a longterm acute care. So you mean to tell me because she's a doctor's wife, her life meant more than any of those other patients?"

China's effort in containing and caring for her populace look better day by day. Yet you didn't hear this broadcast on your 6pm news.
