Iris Gorfinkel, M.D., who is a general practitioner, medical researcher, and founder of PrimeHealth Clinical Research, said she is excited about the numbers. But she is also cautious. "We want to see the actual numbers, we want to see the real data on this. Right now, they have not reached the statistical significance needed for that vaccine," Gorfinkel told Bored Panda. "Also, they have not shared and been completely transparent so far with what the numbers are on side effects."

Another thing the doctor pointed out is that we still do not know how long the vaccine lasts. "That's a major issue with not just this product, but with all products, especially if it's being pushed through fast." Furthermore, what about the storage facility that the vaccine requires? Gorfinkel said almost no clinics have that. "We don't have the storage facilities to keep this vaccine at minus 70 degrees. It may work in a research setting. But I'm a vaccine researcher, and I don't even have that $15,000 refrigeration system."

Gorfinkel stressed that we need systems that are telling us at all times who has received what vaccination, when and where it was given, and with what product. "Right now we lack centralized tracking systems. And this leads to vaccine wastage and an inability to divert vaccine supplies to where they're most needed," she explained.

A simple solution to this problem is barcoding. "Walmart's a great example. It has literally millions of products and over 400 stores in Canada. So there's no reason why this same technology is not applied to vaccines. Every Canadian should have a unique barcode that could be scanned right along with a barcode which is already existing on every vial of vaccine that we give."

Thanks, Pfizer

"Instantly, those two little blips would automatically populate the patient's own electronic health record, local public health unit records, and also a provincial or territorial vaccine registry ... That the last record, the vaccine registry, would allow patients a private portal to see what vaccine was provided and when, and could also serve as a platform in which patients could be emailed about specific issues with a vaccine. That includes recalls, newly discovered side effects, the potential reminders for boosters, and how long-lasting the vaccine is discovered to be."

Clinicians could also gain access to the vaccine registry to see who has had what product and when, Gorginkel said, and ministries of health could be empowered to divert potentially limited supplies of vaccines to outbreaks.

"It's not just one vaccine. Ultimately, we're talking about probably a whole group of vaccines, each with its own unique safety and efficacy profile, each with its own unique vaccine schedule of how it needs to be given how frequently it's going to get really complicated," the doctor added. "These complex issues will arise and we need to have that information at our fingertips."

I rarely agree with @JayLoren, but... Yeah. This is a disaster in the making. Pfizer hasn't released enough data for us to know (of course), but from inside the medical community, I can say this: We're not betting lives on this vaccine. If all else about it is perfect as claimed? It still has to be stored at -70*C. That is a freezer few facilities have, and outside maybe NYC/London-sized cities, hospitals won't be able to afford *one* such freezer, let alone *several*, to store required numbers of doses WHEN they are available (maybe 2022) for the average person. Memes aren't appropriate here. Suspicion and caution, yes. Peace, and please, WASH, MASK, DISTANCE. The VIRUS is not a hoax. Cure and vaccine claims... possibly are. Peace. Safety. And peace.

13points

WilvanderHeijden 4 years ago

A little skepticism is never wrong. Yes, there are some hurdles like the -70°C ( -94°F) transportation and storage temperature. But when given the choice between a 90% effective vaccine and totally nothing else, the choice is simple. Should we wait for a 100% effective vaccination when worldwide per day over 5000 people are dying? Desperate times call for desperate measures. No it isn't ideal, but at this moment it just will have to do.

11points

Leo Domitrix 4 years ago

I'm not talking about waiting for 100% effciient vaccine. I'm talking one we can actually get to people efficiently, b/c if the vaccine is great, what does it matter if you don't have *access*? We don't all have national health care working in a coordinated manner, alas! Thus, no guarantees on access in the US, for example. Also, the first doses won't go to us unless we're front-line healthcare, elderly in nursing homes, military... Assuming all is as it is. And other vaccines are taking a similar approach but may be less fragile, ergo less expensive. Just putting it out there. Your choice, your call, like I said, peaec out.

And to think that COVID-19 is only one of "An estimated 10 nonillion (10 to the 31st power) individual viruses exist on our planet—enough to assign one to every star in the universe 100 million times over." [Source: National Geographic] Only a tiny fraction of these are capable of passing from other animal species into humans (zoonotic transfer) but that still leaves a multitude of possibilities. We should never be complacent when it comes to new viruses and their potential to become and epidemic and ultimately a pandemic. Let's hope we have all learnt a lesson from our present predicament...
