Well, vaccines are magic.
They can save lives.
Everybody thinks, you know,
when they hear,
okay, you’re going to stay locked down
until there’s a vaccine.
As Bill Gates said, “a magical vaccine”.
They’re thinking that all the vaccines are
going to do what we’ve been told vaccines do,
which is to give everybody who gets one
lifetime immunity.
And no, you know, major health problems.
What are the chances they’re actually
going to get a vaccine like that?
I would say zero.
Here’s what I predict.
I predict you’re going to be seeing
Bill Gates and Tony Fauci…
week after week
dampening expectations about the vaccine.
They originally saying it’s a magical vaccine
we’re going to give to everybody…
and everybody is going to be immune.
And they’re going to say, well, actually
only 80% of people will be immune.
And then they’ll say 70%
and they’ll say 50%.
And then they’ll say 20%.
But it’s still worth it, to have 20%.
And they’ll try to sell us on that.
Breaking news. Pharmaceutical giant Pfizer
just announced moments ago…
that its coronavirus vaccine is
95% effective!
Meg, we should point out that Pfizer shares
are up by about 3% on this news.
Obviously more good news there.
– 91%!
– 90% efficacy rate.
This is a great vaccine.
Great day for humanity. Great day for science.
Great day for the markets. Check this out!
Because it’s got to be purchased,
manufactured, and then…
there has to be money there
for it to be purchased.
And so the world needs
to put up more money!
Their vaccine’s efficacy against COVID
dropped from 96% to 84%.
80% effective after just one dose.
– Just a single dose.
– A reduction of 75%.
– Those lines go down.
– Which fell below 50%.
You can’t even keep up with this
because it’s moving so quickly.
– 42%.
– 30 to 40%.
Vaccine provides just 33% protection.
We know no vaccine lasts forever.
So the protection starts to wane a bit.
And that’s what the boost is all about.
And then they’re going to say, well…
the vaccine, yeah,
it’s not actually lifetime immunity.
Immunity only lasts for one year,
one season.
And actually, maybe not even that.
Maybe only two or three months.
And then you have to get another one.
It may not offer protection for a lifetime.
It’s not a one and done.
Booster, so-called third dose.
It is confusing to people.
It really is going to be about focusing
on getting that shot just once a year.
Much simpler, much easier to do.
Don’t worry so much
about the number of boosters.
Worry about when you got your last booster.
It’s the CEO of Moderna, Stephane Foncell.
What a blowout quarter. Congratulations to you.
Oh yeah, we definitely think it’s going to be
like a flu shot. COVID is not going away, huh!
And that’s why we’re also working
on combining flu and COVID so it’s easier.
So you are the COVID company then.
The new updated COVID-19 vaccine
is the most…..
And that’s my prediction.
I could be wrong, but I would say zero.
And all you have to do
is look at the flu vaccine.
Well, thank you for,
for illuminating all of this for us today.
I want to leave on a positive note,
but it’s like, uh, wow, we’re screwed!
And that’s the magic of this thing,
but there’s no doubt in the next 5 years,
we can, you know,
we just need to mess around!
