‘This Is Good News’: Moderna Reports ‘Robust’ Results In Coronavirus Vaccine Trial

https://dailycaller.com/

Pharmaceutical company Moderna said Tuesday it will begin a new phase of testing for its coronavirus vaccine later this month after all patients who took part in an initial trial showed “robust” responses to the drug.

According to Moderna, all 45 volunteers in the study developed “rapid and strong immune responses” when administered the vaccine, with none of the participants showing severe side effects.

Moderna developed the vaccine in coordination with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) as part of Operation Warp Speed, the Trump administration’s effort to find a coronavirus vaccine.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the head of NIAID and the top infectious disease expert on the White House coronavirus task force, applauded the findings of the initial study.

“No matter how you slice this, this is good news,” Fauci told the Associated Press.

The company said that it will begin Phase 3 of its vaccine trial on July 27, with a study of 30,000 participants.

Dr. Tal Zaks, the chief medical officer at Moderna, said that the trial showed that the vaccine elicited “a robust immune response across all dose levels” administered in the study.

Patients were broken up into three groups and administered vaccination doses of 25, 100, and 250 micrograms.

Zaks said that 100 microgram dose proved to be the optimal dose based on the results of the study.

Moderna said that it has already manufactured enough doses of the vaccine for the next phase of the trial, and is on track to produce up to 1 billion doses of the vaccine by next year.

Fauci has expressed optimism that scientists will have a safe and effective vaccine for the virus by the end of the year.

  1. Bill Gates Jr. who’s father is a Eugenist and former head of Planned Parenthood believes the earth is too populated with human beings. Well let’s see; there are 132.5 billion square feet within the County of Los Angeles and about 8 billion individual humans on the earth. In other words each person on earth could stand within 16.4 square feet EACH within L.A.County. The State of Texas could contain – easily – 8 Billion modest track homes within its border.

    The Earth is NOT over populated!!!

    So when a LIAR / Arrogant rich person sponsors the vaccines being made and holds a patent on those vaccines – AND the Virus itself – it ain’t because he cares so much about us. Vaccinations are PART OF HIS WORLD De-POPULATION PLANNNNN!

    There! I just sliced it, LIAR Falcee

    Good news – Dr. Fal-seee?

    I think not. Let us begin calling ANY Vaccine for ANY virus the Trojan Horse that it IS!!

  2. Quality of life doesn’t enter your simple calculus. Every crowed country on earth is a hell hole of misery for most residents. Filth, garbage, sewage , disease, infectious environment , soils and water full of diseases and parasites. Chemical pollutants in ground water, no safe water supply, wildlife extinctions, …etc etc. list goes on and on.
    Look up the symptoms other organisms suffer when their populations exceed the k capacity . Look around at the cities growing rapidly all over the planet. Compare the two conditions .
