All of ths sounds very promising

Seems be a double blind phase III which will last 2 years. Don't celebrate yet.

I would have no confidence in a vaccine developed by political expediency and rushed through a testing process that should take years.

I had exactly the same reaction but the answer from experts is no it's not going to get rushed. What they've learned is until waiting to complete one phase before they start the second they can compress the time by doing more than one thing at a time.
Also there are some vaccines that have gone through this whole test that were for Sars that are showing promise. The most promising ones are actually being made now even though they may end up having to trash hundreds of millions of doses.

I watched a news report about this. All they really know at this point is that no one has died from the side effects of the vaccine. They have only tested 45 HEALTHY people and ALL of them had at least one side effect.
I appears to produce some antibodies but they say they have absolutely no idea if it will prevent COVID-19.
Doesn't really sound promising to me.

@willdob3 @Not enough is known yet. It's to early to say.
