It was reported that the FDA said that will soon approve the Pfizer vaccine and it should be in people's arms early next week. Not surprisingly, Trump took credit even though he had nothing to do with the development of the technology which made it possible to develop the vaccines so quickly. Trump also said that the USA will get first dibs. So low risk Americans will have access to the vaccine before high risk people of poor countries, particularly in Africa. However, the Africans may not be as bad off as we once thought. They have managed the virus quite well and a cheaper vaccine is on the way. The real people at risk are the Americans who are suffering, in spite of their wealth, because of incompetent leadership.
