The intruders left without taking anything. Turning back to the coronavirus, were learning more about the first confirmed case of someone here in the u. S. Getting reinfected. Also this morning, a possible setback for a major vaccine trial. Earlier i spoke with dr. Alok patel. Lets begin with two big headlines in the race for a vaccine. First Johnson JohnsonJust Announced its pausing its vaccine trial because of an unexpected illness. How concerning is it . I think its par for the course. When you have 40,000, 50,000, 60,000 in a vaccine trial, there may be pauses. This isnt necessarily saying the direct action is related to the vaccine. It could be a coincidence. Thats why these checks and balances are in place, to make sure the trial is taking a look at everything to make sure the vaccine is safe but heres the thing, i think the Bigger Picture is that this is proof that were probably not going to have a vaccine ready by november 3rd. This process takes a lot of time. And the other vaccine headline this morning is from pfizer, which is now signing up volunteers as young as 12 years old. Whats the significance of that . I think its a good sign because, you know, if you think about who a vaccine is going to be distributed to, its a wide array of the population. Some people say, hey, adults are highrisk individuals. Should be in the trial first and then we should see the safety data before giving it to children that might be fine. Children still need to get represented in that trial to make sure theyre safe as well. You cant just wait until a vaccine is approved and then give it out to children. Dr. Patel, were learning more about the first confirmed case in the u. S. Of someone being reinfected with the coronavirus. With these new details, what do we need to know . The important thing about this specific study that showed the reinfection is that reinfection can happen. Just because you get infected once does not mean youre immune. This specific individual tested positive in april then tested negative twice and then tested positive again in june with a genetically different virus, so it wasnt that he got infected and then the virus deactivated and then reactivated. It was two separate viruses. So the take home is that anyone who had it is not immune and still need to follow the same precaution. Our thanks to dr. Patel.
