I’m guessing Moderna is a lot cheaper as well? The Pfizer price is estimated at 20 dollars a shot.
No it's not, it's $38 for some reason.

But it increases the chances even further that the other similar vaccines are going to be similarly successful and increases overall global supply. This is a wholly positive development and I commend this news to the thread
no , its been tested on 15 000, of whom 5 got Covid, while the non vaccinated group had 90 cases- below explains it
The trial involved 30,000 people in the US with half being given two doses of the vaccine, four weeks apart. The rest had dummy injections.
The analysis was based on the first 95 to develop Covid-19 symptoms.
Only five of the Covid cases were in people given the vaccine, 90 were in those given the dummy treatment. The company says the vaccine is protecting 94.5% of people.
The data also shows there were 11 cases of severe Covid in the trial, but none happened in people who were immunised.
its been tested on thousands. of those in the test that have contracted covid, 90 had the placebo and 5 had the vaccine. they conduct the trail by report once n number of people have contracted and looking at placebo/vaccine to judge how effective it was.

COVID-19 update for BSUH
We are currently caring for 64 patients with COVID-19 in our hospitals including six in our critical care units.
Numbers going down slowly, hoping over next 2 weeks to see significant reduction.

We can get vaccines into people in the UK and in most western countries pretty effectively. So I think the idea that we’re going to vaccinate a very large percentage of the population by spring is completely possible.
And I think that will make a big difference, people will be then less anxious about catching the disease because they will be vaccinated, transmissions will fall to a low level and we may not be back completely to normal but things are going to look dramatically different by the spring.
