Looking for some useful information and not a discussion on the vaccines' merits.
I believe it's TBD. The healthcare and essential workers that are 1a and 1b comprise several million people who will get the vaccine before the 40 plus million of us, so there will be a time lag.
I would like to comment on yesterdays thread about worries with a speedy vaccine. The first major reason the 2 are out so fast is it is totally new technology with the messenger ribonucleic acid versus chicken embryos. Much faster, and possibly safer. However still had to go through test populations for side effects and efficacy.
