Should we wait until we get a vaccine that prevents the Brazil

The current one is predicted as being 50% effective, a coin toss.
The effectiveness on the C-19 is 95%. A slot machine.
How bad is your medical plan if you have to come here to ask for medical

I don't think the root of his problems is his medical plan. Calling a
95%
effective vaccine a slot machine says it all.


Even 50% is a huge step towards "herd immunity".

The 50% isnt immunity, its avoidance
of severe disease if you get infected.
