The company is now seeking Food and Drug Administration approval.

I actually just got over Covid so I would assume Im standing at the back of the line like my last name starts with Y.

I'm being crass and callus but I saw something today where obese people are possibly being considered for being up there in the receiving line.

Talk about participation trophy culture.

Give it to the elderly and health care workers. Protect people over 60 and this is essentially over.

Considering most deaths and extended ICU stays are coming from old people and those that are overweight/heart disease/diabetic it completely makes sense for them to be at the top of the list after healthcare workers and the elderly.

I’m extremely interested in the social response to the vaccines.

For example, how soon after the vaccine is available will my office open back up? Will someone have to receive the vaccine to be allowed back to the office? Etc. etc.

Or can an employer even require this or ask if you’ve been vaccinated due to HIPPA laws?

How fat do I gotta get to get me a vaccine? I have plenty of Thanksgiving leftovers to get this going

Is this going to be required for kids going to school once it is approved for children?

Lots of questions about how life adapts to a vaccine rollout.

Me too, hopefully we'll get restaurants/travel/events going again. I'm all for elderly, medical professionals and then starting down the line of the most at risk (aka fatties) vaccinated sooner vs. later. Per most of the models/projections I'm seeing there could be 20,000,000 doses of vaccine/month. Combine that with the infections, and it looks like we could start to see 50% saturation (infected or vaccinated) by May with 70%-80% by August.

We're in for a long winter, but I would expect that by Memorial Day we might be trending towards "normal". I've been telling my team that March/April before we might be back in office, but that's probably too optimistic right now. What a **** year...

Yes, would be my assumption.

True story. My wife and I were walking thru the neighborhood last week and one of my neighbors left their garage door open. I bet there was 10 costco size bundles of toilet paper covering an entire wall... It would take us 2-3 years to use that much teepee.. we laughed

Healthcare workers are the ones receiving it now. First shot is nothing, but told that the second shot takes people out for two days. Not sure which one the workers were getting.
