Pfizer: Early Look Shows COVID-19 Vaccine Is 90% Effective

A coronavirus vaccine from Pfizer proved more than 90% effective in a preliminary analysis of a trial involving thousands of enrollees, a major milestone in the race for shots that can reel in the pandemic.

The drugmaker said it tallied 94 infections in trial participants and looked at who received the vaccine, versus the placebo, to determine its efficacy. Recipients achieved protection 28 days after the second dose of the vaccine.

“Today is a great day for science and humanity. The first set of results from our Phase 3 COVID-19 vaccine trial provides the initial evidence of our vaccine’s ability to prevent COVID-19,” Pfizer Chairman and CEO Dr. Albert Bourla said.

The news is likely to reverberate around the country and the world. The U.S. is recording over 100,000 new infections per day, signaling a potentially rocky road ahead as winter looms.

“We are reaching this critical milestone in our vaccine development program at a time when the world needs it most with infection rates setting new records, hospitals nearing over-capacity and economies struggling to reopen,” Dr. Bourla said. “With today’s news, we are a significant step closer to providing people around the world with a much-needed breakthrough to help bring an end to this global health crisis.”

Pfizer will not seek emergency approval of its candidate immediately, however.

The Food and Drug Administration wants two months of safety data from half of the trial participants after their second dose, pushing the timeline to the latter half of November.

Donald J. Trump has done it again while the Ewedu guzzling zombies continue to envy and hate him. Awolowo, Tinubu, Abiola and our darling daddy couldn't do half of what he has done for his people.

Many people condemn Trump saying he's not a christ-like man. Fools they are

Killings have being going on in Nigeria. Christian has successfully gone drain in the north.

Your vice president that you consider holy what has he done concerning the issue

This is how most hypocrite when they see a female wearing trouser they call her daughter of Jezebel while the one who wears skirt is seen as flying angel

Rubbish
Hypocrite, so both of them are not by biology the same characteristics. What else were you looking in both of them

You mean Donald Trump who doesn’t believe in scientific facts like Global warming and used to believe vaccines causes autism without any evidence.

Who has also brainwashed you that the elections were rigged lol��
Even republican senators and former presidents have congratulated Joe Biden, stop being delusional bro.

The fvck

Niggarr!!

A vaccine was always a way out of this terrible pandemic, if you know you know. Pussy ass niggarss will not accept.

I saw somewhere that after 6 months, the T cells, a memory cell in our immune system forgets how to fight the Covid-19.

More studies should be done for clarity.

Science always at hand to save mankind. What would man have done without science??

I said what I said!
