Slow down. There’s a vaccine trial for a proposed COVID-19 vaccine that’s being tested. 1000 people get the vaccine as part of the trial. If out of those 1000 people 17 test positive for COVID-19, what exactly does that tell us about the immunity of the other 983, maybe they just happened to have not gotten infected?Unless they’re testing the vaccine on front line medical professionals who are going to risk it and treat patients without PPE because they’re presumed to be immunized.
There were talks about exposing the people in the vaccine trial to the virus to test its effectiveness

12 new patients sick enough to be tested.
Would you knowingly expose yourself to a dangerous virus to test a vaccine?
I am not saying that I would. But the people who are in clinical trials are also putting themselves at a risk by accepting the vaccine to begin with. They have no idea what the adverse effects of that vaccine can be.
Where's the post about the Nobel prize winner saying he would be surprised if they're over 10 deaths in Israel.It's at 100+
Heard from a BP Hatzalah member that over the 3 day Yom Tov they only had 5 calls that were Covid-19 related. Tyh
Quotes in a signature is annoying, as it comes across as an independent post.
What about the ones that predicted 5000 in severe conditions with 2000+ dead (in Israel)? The nobel peace guy is a hell of a lot closer. This has destroyed dozens of families in the frum world. But the hysteric people were predicting thousands of dead in the frum community. This is the good news thread, lets keep it that way
That was without social distancing
Israel had social distancing from the day after purim. These predictions were made after.
Heard from one in Lakewood that they only had ONE. Not sure if he meant transports or calls tho.
As long as those dire predictions kept people home and saved even one life, it was worth it.
