Our gahment says will review it so likely it will be sent to our HSA lab for a breakdown to see how it goes. If they say ok, means ok.

If really only 50% effective then maybe our gahment can ask for 50% off the price. LoL...

50% is the min of global vaccine efficacy standard

 

also sinovac if i remember correctly more expensive than pfizer

 

 

anyway u cant ask discount la if its 50%
 

best is u jab twice, then become 100% efficacy😂

Pfizer downside it needs -70 deg celcius storage, most developing countries with huge area and lack of storage facilities will become problem in vaccination distribution

The Indonesians dont have a lot of options. LoL...

Those rich ones can at least come over here to pay for the Pfizer jab.

Most of them were eradicated due to herd immunity. Honestly I dunno. All these predates me. But I believe it was the widespread adoption that killed off the virus reservoirs. 

The flu vaccine may only be 40% effective in elderly. 

But the effectiveness of those maybe higher cos the virus don't mutate that much eg polio, hepatitis b. And kids all mostly have very robust immune systems. Ideal population to vaccinate. 

Even a 50% vaccine would be pretty effective if say 100% population took the vaccine. Cos it reduces the R0 to much much lower. 

Yeah the outbreak if theres a super spreader in community will be halved. Moreover sinovac is more useful to jab at infected patient with moderate to severe symptom. Efficacy up to 78%. But its less effective against normal or mild case

A HSA review almost never involves any actual biochemical analysis of a drug or vaccine, only a review of available data from manufacturer, various other national agencies and any other publicly available data. 

I know the process: I was requested by HSA to do an expert review on a new drug being considered for importation into Singapore (which I rejected on the basis of inconsistencies in various data sources - so I made up my mind independently despite some major national regulatory authorities having given it the green light).

Look at the vaccine bottle. Chinese wording mean china. English mean western.

So easy.

Without vaccine I might or might not get covid. I get covid I might not die.

With china vaccine I might still have 50% chance of getting covid.
