#FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) on #BCG (#Bacille #Calmette-#Guerin) #Vaccine Trial
Question : Will BCG vaccine really benefit to control COVID in elderly ?
My Answer : Yet, It will. But, “control”, (like Prevent or Save) is a wrong word to be used. The Right word is “Reduce”
BCG Vaccine won’t benefit to control COVID in elderly
BCG Vaccine won’t benefit to prevent COVID in elderly
BCG Vaccine won’t save elderly from COVID
But
BCG Vaccine will reduce Mortality and Morbidity in Elderly

To Substantiate this, they are planning to start a trial
பிசிஜி தடுப்பூசி போட்டால் கொரோனாவை தடுக்க முடியாது
பிசிஜி தடுப்பூசி போட்டால் கொரோனாவை ஒழிக்க முடியாது
பிசிஜி தடுப்பூசி போட்டால் கொரோனாவில் இருந்து பாதுகாக்க முடியாது

ஆனால்
பிசிஜி தடுப்பூசி போட்டால் கொரோனாவினால் ஏற்படும் நோய் பாதிப்புகள் குறையும்
பிசிஜி தடுப்பூசி போட்டால் கொரோனாவினால் ஏற்படும் நோய் தீவிரங்கள் குறையும்
பிசிஜி தடுப்பூசி போட்டால் கொரோனாவினால் ஏற்படும் மரணங்கள் குறையும்

இதை உறுதிப்படுத்தத்தான் ஆய்வு தொடங்கவுள்ளது

Question 2 : That too not proven right.? And many countries didn’t accept that experiment …
Answer 2 : Proven with Observational Studies. The simple and easy way to understand is to look at the Low Mortality and Morbidity in Portugal in CoVID19 as compared with Spain

Question 3 : If it prevents mortality it’s fine. Otherwise experimenting on elderly those are already more riskier will not be accepted.
Answer 3 : Actually

We need to define the word experiment here

For Example
𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝟏
If you give BCG to 10000 people in August 2020
and Take 10000 people as control
𝐃𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐥𝐬𝐞
And see the difference in Outcome in Feb 2021
𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝟐
If you give BCG to 10000 people in August 2020

𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐚 𝐕𝐢𝐫𝐮𝐬 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐀𝐢𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐉𝐚𝐧
And see the difference in Outcome in Feb 2021

1 is OK
2 is wrong
This is the difference
