JUST IN—Rudy Giuliani is said to have been feeling sick since at least Friday.

If that is true, & assume it was his day ~5 of #COVID19 infection, then he was potentially already infectious in Michigan on Wed & in Georgia on Thurs.

➡️Michigan & Georgia contacts need quarantine.
2) Good to see Arizona Legislature close already because of #RudyGiuliani. But this Giuliani outbreak could be huge given his extensive travels and speaking.
3) this was extremely disgusting and irresponsible of Giuliani this week.
4) we need to test close Giuliani contacts daily. Because there is an incubation time needed to build up the viral load before a test will turn positive. Both K McEnany and S Miller tested negative for 4 days before turning positive on 5th day of quarantine.

TOOTH LOSS is one symptom of #LongCovid. Congressman Louie Gohmert’s tooth just came out during a speech. He had #COVID19 many months ago. Many reports of COVID-related tooth lose in NYT, as well as documented by @Survivor_Corps @dianaberrent.
2) COVID and tooth loss. nytimes.com/2020/11/26/hea…
3) House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy once even called Louie Gohmert, “Congressman Covid”

BREAKING—Rudy Giuliani confirms on WABC radio that Jenna Ellis (seen to his left) has tested positive for #COVID19. Giuliani is currently hospitalized at Georgetown. All while Rudy tried to tell his witness to **take off her mask** last week.
2) Rudy infected Jenna Ellis because he was already infectious at the hearings in Michigan and Georgia.
3) Giuliani was also without mask next to Jenna Ellis at a crowded Michigan and Georgia hearings on Thursday too, where he had had audible GI flatulence in middle of hearing.

DEADLIEST WEEK ON RECORD—US averaged 201,756 #COVID19 cases a day in the last week & a **record of 2,249 deaths/day**, beating the previous 7-day average death toll of 2,232 set in April.

But hey, there’s supposed to be no more COVID after Nov 4th right? on.mktw.net/3oDPVbT
2) the positive news is that the vaccines are on their way. And they work pretty well. But rollout will be slow.
3) But for now, OUR HOSPITAL BEDS ARE TOO DAMN FULL!

We must #MaskUp & Ventilate & Filter & Distance! #COVID19 Image

Breaking—FDA analysis of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine data found that the #COVID19 vaccine worked well regardless of a volunteer’s race, weight or age, and offered strong immunity protection within 10 days of first dose. Approval may come by end of week. nytimes.com/2020/12/08/hea…
2) “New coronavirus cases quickly tapered off in the vaccinated group of volunteers about 10 days after the first dose, according to one graph in the briefing materials. In the placebo group, cases kept steadily increasing.”

See figure I dug up and labeled: Image
3) And the vaccine’s efficacy was maintained across age groups, genders, race groups, ethnicities, and countries! Pretty consistent across the board so far. Image

📍Everyone needs to read this 40-year saga of Dr Katalin Karikó, inventor of the mRNA therapy behind Pfizer/BioNTech & Moderna #COVID19 vaccines. Rejected many times, nevertheless she persisted. She will win the Nobel Prize. Oh she’s an *immigrant* too! telegraph.co.uk/global-health/… ImageImage
2) here is a deeper story background of the mRNA saga. statnews.com/2020/11/10/the…
3) The biggest hope is that mRNA therapy can cure or treat other diseases too. Its fundamentally a delivery mechanism for making proteins de novo based on a set of genetic code (to make the spike protein of #SARSCoV2 in this case), but can be retooled later for other illnesses.

Where are we in the global vaccine race? Here are 9 top vaccines in Phase 3 trials that are being hotly monitored. 🧵

📌Pfizer/BioNTech—available soon

📌Moderna—approvals soon

📌AstraZeneca/Oxford—early results, repeating low dose w/ new trial. #COVID19
bloomberg.com/graphics/covid… Image
2) cont’d

📌Novovax—still in testing. No freezing needed.

📌Johnson & Johnson—still in testing. **Single dose** & no freezing needed.

Both expected in early 2021. Image
3) Three Chinese and Russian vaccines all got early approvals after phase 2 results while Phase 3 underway. This is very different from US/European approach to approve after P3 results. The 🇷🇺Gamaleya vaccine reported 92% efficacy but in very limited cases—unreliable data so far. Image
