No doubt the Moderna vaccine has a long way to go.  Apparently they are adding 60 more to the trial on the older side.  Also, just saw that one of the members of the ad hoc vaccine task force has stock options in that company that went up in value by $3M.  He better hope they are the real deal or he will be sent packing.  That's the problem with including people from industry.  Whether they are the right person or have the right knowledge they will be accused of self dealing.  But this is just what is happening in the U.S.  Lots of excellent work is happening worldwide to find treatment options that work as well as vaccines.  As for me, I am more optimistic about the treatment side than the vaccine given that we have lots of viruses that we have known about for decades with no vaccine.  And we all know that every year people get the flu shot but tens of thousand still die from the flu, many because it is a different strain than in the vaccine.
