Let's dispel some rumors especially because misinformation about COVID-19 may and can cost lives. Enough already!

1. Vaccine efficacy results are real. They were not delayed to hurt or help any politician
2. The Pfizer vaccine doesnt contain the SARS CoV-2 virus or parts of it!
3. No nefarious or sinister plan to inject people with a labeling code. The mRNA vaccine is not integrated into recipients genome.
4. No fetal tissue is used for the mRNA vaccine.
5. And No!...researchers such as myself are not part of any conspiracies.
We just want to apply science to improve patient outcomes and even better, to prevent disease.

We can only work our way out of this pandemic through effective vaccines especially because it is difficult to achieve optimal mask wearing and physical distancing to end the pandemic.
Think of how vaccines have made deadly diseases either go away (small pox) or become relatively rare (such as measles).

When the "COVID" vaccine becomes available, lets roll up our sleeves and lets end this thing!

Another challenge would be equitable distribution of vaccines..
High vs. low/middle income countries, and even in developed nations, to ensure that vulnerable and underserved populations, disproportionally affected by the pandemic are proportionally reached!
Now is time for strategic distribution plans at global, national and community level
