However, this will likely be taken care of for me, because I'm 1) not an essential healthcare worker, 2) not a senior citizen and 3) live in a large urban area. Those people will get the vaccine first, and in mid-june (or later) based on the fallout of the vaccine if things seem normal I'll get it.

That said, something like ~50% of Americans said they won't get the vaccine (we'll see what really happens when folks' doctors say it's ready and they should get it) so maybe nonessential non-senior citizens might be able to get it faster than expected

#9We’re about to get 10 million data points.
To me it doesn’t look like they have a lot of data yet.
Don’t these studies typically need to go for much longer?
The Pfizer study:
43,448 patients ages 16 and up.
19,000 vaccinated patients
170 people caught the Coronavirus
Of the sick people:
- 162 received a placebo
- 8 received the vaccine
