A new antibody treatment. Also this morning, new cdc guidelines on thanksgiving. Earlier i spoke with dr. Shashank ravi about these headlines. Lets begin with what appears to be a major victory in the battle against the coronavirus. Drugmaker pfizer announcing its vaccine is more than 90 effective. What do we need to know about this . Well, its definitely great news, mona, and bodes well for being able to get a vaccine out to society very soon. We need to look at more data to know how long will any immunity last for. We also need to look at the age ranges as we know that elderly individuals usually have less of an immune response. What do viewers need to know about that, for example, who will get it first, when will it be available and where . We do know it will take several months if not half a year to get a vaccine distributed across america. We also know that we likely wont be able to rely on a single manufacturer. Many of these vaccines including the pfizer candidate required two doses, so well need to have a way of tracking individuals to make sure that they return for their second dose after about a months time and that the supply is there so that they can actually get that second dose on time. We also learned overnight that a new antibody treatment for covid has been approved. What are you hearing . So this is exciting because we really havent had a treatment targeted at this population who are mostly well and aimed at making sure that they arent getting sicker and arent needing to be hospitalized. Then lastly the cdc has released some new guidance on the thanksgiving holiday. You know we are just weeks away. What are the takeaways . We know that as the virus has definitely surged across many states, much of that spread has come from families, extended families mingling, and so we must all try to do what we must to stay apart, and if we have symptoms, dont interact with other individuals and really stay distant.
