#33 Pfizer’s Covid Vaccine: Things You Need to Know

 Zimmer, Carl and Thomas, Katie "Pfizer’s Covid Vaccine: Things You Need to Know"  The New York Times 10 November 2020 https://www.nytimes.com/live/2020/pfizer-covid-19-vaccine?surface=home-discovery-vi-prg&fellback=false&req_id=590299614&algo=identity&imp_id=758991495&action=click&module=Science%20%20Technology&pgtype=Homepage

I feel hopeful about the news of the Covid-19 vaccine, because maybe things will go back to how they were before and I won't have to be cooped up in my house 24/7. What surprised me most about the vaccine is how fast it got produced, because I was expecting it to take longer and have a lot of problems needed to be fixed, but according to the article "The early analysis suggests the vaccine is 90 percent effective" (Zimmer). That is a really high number considering we've only been in quarantine for around six months and they have already produced this vaccine. Some potential issues of the vaccine may be that it could have side effects on the human or it may not be accessible to everyone.
