Coronavirus vaccine test opens as US volunteer gets 1st shot

You don't have to buy so much. Take it easy. Just relax. People are going in and they're buying more. They I remember, I guess. During the conversation, Doug of Wal Mart said that they're buying more than they buy a Christmas. Relax, we're doing great. It'll will pass. Uh, the folks that we spoke to, they've done a fantastic job. They're going to meet the needs of the public. They're going around the clock if they have to. And they're committed to the communities where they're serving and which they serve so beautifully and have for a long time. And they're buying a lot of additional things too cell. But again, they actually have asked me to say, Could you buy a little bit less please? I think I thought I'd never hear that from a retailer. All of them are working hand in hand with the federal government as well as a state and local leaders to ensure food and essentials. Air constantly available, and they'll do it. There's no shortages. We have no shortages other than people are buying anywhere from 3 to 5 times what they would normally buy. It's gonna be there for a long time our supply chains in America the most powerful in the world, and they're all working very hard. They're working around the clock and the stores are stocking up at a level that's beyond Christmas time. And, uh, it's, uh, it's great was very reassuring. Speaking to these people, they have a totally in hand. There's no need for anybody in the country to hoard essential food supplies. They said to me, Could you please tell him just going Bye, Enjoy it. Have a nice dinner. Relax, because there's plenty, but you don't have to. You don't have to buy the quantities because it's hard to refill the stores on a basis is rapid. Is that refilling them? And we're using the full power of the federal government to defeat the Corona virus, and we will do whatever it takes, and we're doing really, really well

U.S. researchers gave the first shot to the first person in a test of an experimental coronavirus vaccine Monday 바카라 게임 웹사이트� leading off a worldwide hunt for protection even as the pandemic surges.With a careful jab in a healthy volunteer바카라 게임 웹사이트�s arm, scientists at the Kaiser Permanente Washington Research Institute in Seattle begin an anxiously awaited first-stage study of a potential COVID-19 vaccine developed in record time after the new virus exploded from China and fanned across the globe.바카라 게임 웹사이트�We바카라 게임 웹사이트�re team coronavirus now,바카라 게임 웹사이트� Kaiser Permanente study leader Dr. Lisa Jackson said on the eve of the experiment. 바카라 게임 웹사이트�Everyone wants to do what they can in this emergency.바카라 게임 웹사이트�The Associated Press observed as the study바카라 게임 웹사이트�s first participant, an operations manager at a small tech company, received the injection inside an exam room.

Even if the research goes well, a vaccine wouldn바카라 게임 웹사이트�t be available for widespread use for 12 to 18 months, said Dr. Anthony Fauci of the U.S. National Institutes of Health.
