Fauci: vaccine should be widely available in USA by early 2021:

June 3, 2020 coronavirus news

This of course assumes that it will actually work....................

 

[sene5hos]

I hope too, there will be a vaccine that works. Even if there should be several vaccines for the effect to be effective.

Whether it's a vaccine or several vaccines, a drug, or in my most wonderful dreams, that this MUTE virus, either that it disappears by itself, or is no longer any effect.

Brazil is really bad shape:

Brazil sets another record for daily coronavirus deaths

Brazil registered another record number of novel coronavirus deaths over the last 24 hours, the health ministry said on Tuesday evening, as the pandemic in Latin America's largest country shows no signs of slowing down.

Fraudci and Gates...2 evil corrupt big pharma crooks. I wonder how much money they made with their Moderna shares.

Moderna’s Guinea Pig ... “Sickest in His Life" after Being Injected with Experimental Vaccine

Less than 12 hours after vaccination with Moderna’s experimental COVIDE-19 vaccine, Ian Hayden was the sickest he’d ever been in his life. Moderna let him believe the illness was just a sad coincidence unrelated to the jab and encouraged him to appear on TV and declare their COVID vaccine trials...

Quackery.

Both Fauci and Gates are great men, and Gates in particular has had a huge positive impact on global health. His foundation works with companies that can contribute to that positive impact.

 

[cloudsurf]

Mistral you can`t take this guy seriously and its impossible to talk sense to him.
Nutsi is one of these nutcase anti-vaccers who loves to quote anti-vaccer conspiracy bullshit. He`d probably rather spend 2 months on a ventilator than get a vaccine against covid-19

What should be pointed out is he was one of the highest dosage volunteers for the testing. That dose has been discontinued since antibodies were successfully produced at lower doses. He also has said he is glad he was part of the trial and he recovered from the severe reaction the next day.

Gates of course is funding zillions of studies and has done more for humanity that most anyone giving away gazillions for many good causes including research and prior virus in Africa etc. We need more leaders like Gates.

Surprised that a coronavirus lawsuit took so long to materialize. I would imagine an Amazon warehouse to be decently equiped but less well-resourced companies may not be adequately protecting their workers. Huge implications esp if Congress doesn’t pass legislation to protect companies.

Working from home is a luxury that many ‘essential’ workers don’t enjoy.

Amazon is sued over warehouses after New York worker brings coronavirus home, cousin dies

Amazon.com Inc has been sued for allegedly fostering the spread of the coronavirus by mandating unsafe working conditions, causing at least one employee to contract COVID-19, bring it home, and see her cousin die.

Surprised that a coronavirus lawsuit took so long to materialize.

It did not, if you have been following this thread I posted one involving Noah "Thor" Syndegaard of the NY Mets around a week ago and there have been others. However, this is the first one I have read about in which a lawsuit alleged unsafe working conditions due to Coronavirus.

The amount of litigation that could potentially be spawned by Covid-19 is infinite. The Courts have already taken some measures to limit the ability of landlords to perfect evictions, and of banks to perfect foreclosures. All foreclosure sales in Connecticut were stayed until late July. There could be a bonanza of loss-shifting litigation related to Covid-19, and possibly legislation to limit it. I have already directly been advising clients on eviction issues and on foreclosure issues in light of Covid.

I am not sure if other States are doing it, but Connecticut forced insurance companies to issue rebates for premiums paid in March, April and May on auto and homeowner's insurance due to residents not going outside and using their vehicles. I just got my 20% rebate check in the mail yesterday on my home and auto insurance. If you guys did not get rebates you should request them. The risk is down when people do not go outside, use their yards and drive, and insurance companies should not be getting fat on your backs.

TheGreatwaloo, I started a thread called Bolsonaro vs COVID-19.
I put your link there.

Thank you

I posted here because I didn’t want to post it in the political section and have to deal with the bullshit.

The US economy is bouncing back from Coronavirus as unemployment fell to 13.3%:

America's unemployment rate falls to 13.3% as economy posts surprise job gains

The American economy just got a shocking piece of good news: The job market may be recovering well ahead of schedule.

Never underestimate the #1 economy in the world!

 

[sene5hos]

Apparently in the United States, 30% of people would not want to be vaccinated against the coronavirus.

These people have preconceived ideas, and we have to explain how vaccines work, to disarm this anti-vaccine phenomenon.

Because of so many people have read things on the internet, and if it's written on the internet it's true.

I hope that in Quebec the% is lower?

And what's really amazing is that stocks are (basically) back to their record highs. NASDAQ hit a new intraday record today, S&P 500 is not too far behind. People who panicked and sold at a low point are probably not very happy with their decision.

I found out today that no colonoscopies or other similar procedures are being performed by my gastroenterologist's office unless I have a Covid 19 test first. So it looks like the dreaded swab will be getting jammed down my nostril. Not looking forward to it but if Cuomo can man up, I just have to man up and do it. My mother has already had 2 negative tests done, so I would be the sissy of the family if I don't go through with it.

They are pussies. You are either in the game for the long run or a fair weather investor. People who are intimidated by big paper losses don't have the intestinal fortitude to play the game.

 

[IamNY]

Hey EB, I’m assuming they want you to have the test the day of or a day before the procedure?

 

[EagerBeaver]

They said within 72 hours. The procedure isn't until June 29.

First Amazon, now Safeway faces a coronavirus lawsuit. Apparently conditions were so bad at the Safeway warehouse that 51 workers were infected.

Coronavirus: Widow sues Safeway for wrongful death of husband after virus outbreak

Seems the earliest such action may hv been taken against Walmart as early as April.

Should Amazon, Walmart, others be held liable for workers sickened by COVID-19?

Early last month, the National Retail Federation sent a memo to Congress with a list of the priorities that the trade group believed should be in any new stimulus legislation. At the top of that list was liability reform. Do you support the passage of legislation that would limit the liability...

retailwire.com

Think it’ll be left to the courts to decide since Congress is unlikely to work anything out given all time high partisanship.

Warren Buffett’s timeless advice to retail investors to buy a low cost S&P 500 index fund & just hold for the long term still holds true.

Ironically professional investors such as Warren Buffett who focus on fundamental analysis, sold his airline shares at the recent March stock bottom & missed out on the latest price surge. Buffett also didn’t deploy Berkshire’s $128+ Billion cashpile during that time.

But Buffett might still prove to be correct, stocks valuations r at an all time high and artificially supported only by the Federal Reserve which even went to buy junk bonds.

When more bad news comes such as a 2nd coronavirus wave, investors will expect the Federal Reserve to take actions like going to negative rates or buying equities. Actions that some might say has caused the zombification of the Japanese economy. Basically a no-win situation.
