But i want to be with my babies. I feel safe to fly. I think, i think we should all 5, pretty sure the nations top Infectious Disease expert at the round of sunday talk shows right now. The curve is like that. Its going up at a very rapid rate and you looked at almost every single day. In fact, gives you another record. The long lines at persistent testing stations around the country are tangible evidence of the absence of any federally controlled testing program. Just one of the reasons, say, health experts, why the virus has not been brought under control. The only ray of hope in a bleak winter, the possibility of new vaccines show is on the way. Traditionally, historically, the wreck scenes have crushed epidemics, like smallpox and polio, and measles. We can do that with the scenes that are going to be coming online. Experts from the food and Drug Administration are reviewing the data from what the makers claim are highly successful vaccine trials. The f. D. A. Will meet with independent experts next month. And if its decided to grant an emergency use authorization, its possible doses of the vaccine could begin to be distributed within days. Our plan is to be able to ship vaccines to the immunization sites within 24 hours from the approval. So i would expect maybe on day 2, after approval on the 11th or on the 12th of december, hopefully the 1st people who would be immunized across the United States across all states.

Though davis is an Infectious Disease physician at Washington University school of medicine. She joins us now live by skype from st. Louis. Thanks for your time. How feasible is it to get these vaccines out to 20000000 americans before the end of the year . I mean, logistically speaking, generally speaking, its charming, but it can be done and lead to no receives, are raccoons that move forward . Grey areas, very severe and call centers are negative 94 degree parents that are wired, a lot of infrastructure, modern wiring. They can all really saying thank you, not for doing a fine thing, but were trying to resort to the mean when rap time be done. I think that the challenge lies beyond that and getting it out like that is already quite skeptical of raising them back means assuming just the nature of that 42 percent of americans would not want to sink the vacuum and 67 percent of africanamericans who arent good. Fortunately, i thank them both and aces, and thats that rendered challenge lines and where my concern is greatest. Yeah, i want to talk to you about that poll. That gallup poll, as you said, showed only 58 percent of americans would get the coronavirus sexing. So obviously people have concerns. One of the concerns of inbreeding is what about potential long term impacts . You know, because that is something that can only really come out with time. So how does that work . I mean, do regulate whale up the risks and decide if it is worth it to get the vaccine out. No, that the whole im going to try to repair not only for africa, but think that is something that we have tried and true problems in charge happen. You know that me are only expected and were only looking for you to fix the present and certain about 90 percent in the government. And those are just the 1st 2 is very, very reassuring. And they may be made on will be external Advisory Board prior to actually being distributed so bad to me and a little less concern. And i mean regulate is obvious. They have said, you know, that if it does say, and safety has not been compromised. But like i said, i mean just reading some of the concerns people are putting out there just even on social media coming back to that long term thing. People are saying, you know, how do we know that in 10, years time, theres not going to be some, you know, throw back kind of a side effect that people could not or could not, of, could not have guessed, might have happened. And you know that you just need government concern, going to reflect that in the whole family. But from a scientific perspective, about the backbone of viruses are things that not done over and over and over again from back in the government to something that was back in the developed a lot of good times. Your rant. Theres no way to know when youre now, but i do trust youre any younger people like me, people like you were throughout the summer and made sure that were Holding People accountable of checks and balances.
