Good morning!!! Today is 17 November & the USA has 2 vaccines that have great results! 🇺🇸🔥 And so more of risk-on!!!
*Dollar down
*Equities up!

Details:
*Both are mRNA vaccines, a brand-new tech. Not made w/ Covid
*Both vaccines require 2 shots, given several weeks apart.
*US hope to have about 20 mn Moderna doses &another 20m of Pfizer & German partner BioNTech to use in late December
*>65 likely to have priority.

Both Russia & China have deployed their vaccines to people without finishing the final trial. So you ask, what's the difference b/n the US & China vaccines?
*China uses old tech: use a dead version of the Sars-CoV-2 virus rather than more advanced techniques deployed elsewhere
*China uses old tech: use a dead version of the Sars-CoV-2 virus rather than more advanced techniques deployed elsewhere
China uses the injection of Sars-CoV-2 to trigger an immune response. 3 of China's vaccines use this old-fashioned technique & they deployed that to mass testing without finishing the final trial.
Some thought this quick method may be ahead of the US more advanced method but...

Moderna, which uses a much more advanced & brand new technique that DOES NOT HAVE ANY VIRUS IN IT but rather a new type of mRNA vaccines, a brand-new technology that has a piece of genetic code that trains the immune system to recognize the spiked protein on the surface of virus.
Moderna got 94.5% protection, based on trials of 30k people w/ half w/ 2 doses 4 wks apart & half dummy injections. Very few side effects as well.
The company hopes to make 1bn does for global use in 2021 & seeking approval.
A comparison of Pfizer & Moderna below:

You can see that Moderna beats Pfizer in the following (although both have great results):
*Higher effectiveness 95% vs 90%
*Storage at lower temp of -20c vs -75c
*Higher effectiveness 95% vs 90%
*Storage at lower temp of -20c vs -75c
How does it work?
*Take only a part of the virus's genetic code (so no virus) & inject in the body
*Body makes viral proteins but not virus & enough train the immune system to attack
*Body makes antibodies to fight Covid-19
*When having Covid, antbodies &T-cells trigger to fight
