The Coronavirus Vaccine Is on Track to Be the Fastest Ever Developed

Most Americans expect a COVID-19 vaccine within a year; 72% say they would get vaccinated
What is most interesting here is that Blacks are least likely to see benefit in vaccination. Black Evangelicals especially so, followed closely by white evangelicals. I'll let you decide on the political differences. And, no surprise, education level has something to do with it as well. In my opinion anyone refusing a vaccination should be barred from school and work. Yes that is authoritarian, but with this virus the communities health trumps politics or religion or ignorance.

These are countries that didn't trust China or the numbers put out by China. From SARS the mantra "once bitten, twice shy" was there guiding principle. They all activated their pandemic plans back in January.
NZ has done pretty well as we also reacted quite quickly. But if we had reacted as quickly as HK. Cambodia etc, we would have done really well.

That's an awfully big stretch, Guardian folks. Some random gas stations, etc. I have seen no stores with such signs. In fact, many of the stores around here emphasize you should wear a mask when in their establishment.
