Statement that reads in part, President Trumps popularity has never been stronger than it is today and his endorsement means more than perhaps any endorsement at any time. Three weeks and a day. Thats how little time it took for the party to rush back into the arms of the man who egged on the violent mob that descended on the capitol, smashed windows, beat Police Officers, bludgeoned one to death, while looking for lawmakers to capture or kill including the former Vice President.

Three weeks and a day. Thats how little time it took for the party to rush back into the arms of the man who egged on the violent mob that descended on the capitol, smashed windows, beat Police Officers

There are new developments this morning in the effectiveness of vaccines against new coronavirus strains. Earlier results from Drugmaker Novavax show it is 89 effective against the regular strain, but only 60 effective against the variant that we are seeing in south africa. That is worrying health officials. Whats more, people in the trial who had been previously infected with the first strain are getting infected again with the new strain. So this really has the potential to change some of the framing in the battle in this pandemic. The first cases of that strain were now found in the united states. That happened for the first time yesterday. It happened in individuals who had not traveled and have no connection to each oth

We already have pfizer, moderna and with these results, its almost certain Johnson Johnson will be applying for Emergency Use Authorization from the fda. The bottom line, this vaccine does not seem to be as effective as pfizer or moderna but has impressive results and is still useful. Lets go over these specific numbers. The Johnson Johnson trial data shows that when you are looking at moderate to severe cases of covid19, it was 66 effective at putting preventing those, whereas moderna and pfizer was 95 . Those two were 95 . Thats a significant difference. If you look at preventing severe cases of covid19, which is the more important one, right . We dont want people in the hospital.
