I read in the WSJ that the Russians are skipping a phase.


quote:
Russian health authorities are preparing to start a mass vaccination campaign against coronavirus in October, the health minister has said.

Russian media quoted Mikhail Murashko as saying that doctors and teachers would be the first to receive the vaccine.

Reuters, citing anonymous sources, said Russia's first potential vaccine would be approved by regulators this month.

However, some experts are concerned at Russia's fast-track approach.

On Friday, the leading infectious disease expert in the US, Dr Anthony Fauci, said he hoped that Russia - and China - were "actually testing the vaccine" before administering them to anyone.

Dr Fauci has said that the US should have a "safe and effective" vaccine by the end of this year.

"I do not believe that there will be vaccines so far ahead of us that we will have to depend on other countries to get us vaccines," he told US lawmakers.

Just think of it as a VERY large phase 3 trial, with no control arm.

Have you seen the positive correlation for those recently vaccinated with the MMR vaccine? (Some military and nations fighting measles again) Interesting possibility for why kids seem to have a milder response to Covid.

I hadn't seen that. Thanks for posting it.

Would also be interesting to know whether the kids who *have* had complications might not have been vaccinated with MMR.
