I wonder if anyone got Covid-19 during production. Kind of twisted to release the trailer right as daily infections reach the 100k milestone.

I'd feel more optimistic if they would make the data available, rather than just do a press release.

Do not expect enough serums for a worldwide immunity until the end of 2021.
The development of that vaccine really has been paid for by Germany through BionTech.
Pfizer is just the risk-taker and in the end a licenser and manufacturer/marketer.

That narrative is all too common.

“I was sick in February and felt like shit for two weeks! I’m convinced it was Covid...”

Because he was told he would get it if he went and did anyway? Admitting he was wrong isn't exactly one of his strengths...

We also haven’t heard from him since before the election. He got Covid and Trump lost. He’s 0 for 2. :olo:

He’s obviously the kind of guy that clams up and goes silent when he’s wrong or loses...

Well, in February in the states they were refusing to test for covid.
I was more sick than I had ever been in my life for three weeks. I was in and out of urgent care; inhaling was like trying to drink honey through a straw. Breathing was only possible in very shallow breaths. A normal breath was excruciating; xrays showed that I had a ton of fluid in the lining of my lungs. 103 F fever for three days.

I was told "you would know if you had coronavirus" when asked to be tested during this suffering.

I came down with this a few days after taking care of a sicko who just came back from a conference in Seattle that was 70% people that just flew in from China. Supposedly a few people left the convention straight for LA and then the cruise ship thing happened :paranoid:
