Leading scientists are cautiously welcoming news of a new vaccine against coronavirus thats proved more than 90 effective in early results. The vaccine, developed by pharma giant pfizer and its partner biontech has been tested on nearly a4,000 people in six countries, with no safety concerns being raised so far.

This is a huge day for science, and perhaps the world. For the first time, a covid 19 vaccine has been shown to protect against the disease. Plenty of caution is needed, but the preliminary results of the Pfizer Biontech
Unprecedented assault on the democracy. Greg unprecedented . That is rich after the four here assault on all of us by democrats, the media, and job all beginning with a simple life that would amplify russia collusion for one fewer than the fine folks to bring trump and supporters as racist, that hate filled light excused everything from the acceptance of mob rule to attacking us. They probably voted trump so they must be bigots. There were other news and democracy here is like that hunter letter signed by 50 intel officials. It was pure disinformation, and it came in the nick of time for joe right before a debate. There are 50 former National Intelligence folks who said what he is accusing me of is a russian plan. Greg not true and then nancy with covid relief, treating allies for votes to help joe win and election, an election where used intimidation at holding stations with more irregularities than an festival. About so what if there was cheating . The Trump Presidency was so, what i

Maybe its not surprising that another singer tonight is saying she will not perform the Donald Trumps inauguration. Bu
