    Yeah, everything is basically D614G by now, so that's kinda the virus we need to make sure the vaccine works against - but I'm not really concerned there's a difference between Doug and Dougless here.

    I agree that it is probably unnecessary - just try the vaccine.

    I'm _super_ worried about Moderna... Just not convinced that thing is safe.

    Basically for Moderna they are immunizing/placeboing 30,000 people then sending them out to see how many get infected.

    They _really_ need to do that trial in high-transmission areas - i.e., not the North East!

    Agree - maybe not safe but even more dangerous - it may not work at all or very well - either would be a setback.
