What's this?

Guessing they can't say anything else this early on

It's still unknown. Once the clinical trials folks start getting to the six month plus mark we will know more

Yep. But, i read statements about reopening for chicago and ny state... ** -- ColoVT82 01/15/2021 2:17PM

Understand, but I think eventually there will be pushback on that ** -- coshokie 01/15/2021 1:24PM

There already is. -- GreenvilleVT 01/15/2021 2:09PM

I expect we will see some legal pushback, not just social pushback -- Tafkam Hokie 01/15/2021 2:39PM

Heart failure is a common condition, and most aren't in nursing homes -- lchoro 01/15/2021 12:29PM

Imagine old people dying in nursing homes. -- GreenvilleVT 01/15/2021 11:51AM

They shouldn't have wasted vaccine on the gravely ill to begin with -- JoesterVT 01/15/2021 11:34AM

Maybe this is Phase 4 of trials - determining if safe for old people. (TIC) ** -- MP4VT2004 01/15/2021 2:36PM

Why do you want grandma to die?! ** -- vthokieq 01/15/2021 2:27PM

Palliative care, yes. They're exposed to contract nurses aides, nurses, .. -- lchoro 01/15/2021 12:34PM

Yeah the government should determine who should live and die. -- GreenvilleVT 01/15/2021 11:46AM

Not the government...doctors, patients, family -- JoesterVT 01/15/2021 11:48AM

So you're saying sense is uncommon? ** -- MP4VT2004 01/15/2021 1:08PM

Sounds like that is saying its only good for month 2-6, so only 5 months??? ** -- coshokie 01/15/2021 11:05AM

And apparently they will study him for the next 2 years ** -- 3011Cochrane 01/15/2021 2:18PM

I've heard that was one of the compromises they considered. -- Hokie360 01/15/2021 2:44PM

It should be at least "some" good for much longer than 6 months... ** -- JoesterVT 01/15/2021 11:12AM
