It is August 1! / myLot

New month, new hope, new everything! I saw on TV news last night, that vaccines might be available by December. The government has a budget for that-providing free vaccines for 20 million poor Filipinos. That means, if that really comes, we still have 4 more months to live in fear. What about in your country, any positive news as far as vaccine is concerned? Will respond later to all the notifications. Happy Saturday to all!

The news about vaccine is the same world over. The closest candidate is the one from Oxford university which may come by year end. There is a production facility for this vaccine in our country and it is already ready to used as soon as final clearance is granted. There is another indigenously developed vaccine which is undergoing human trials.

@Janet357 The owner of the firm engaged in manufacture of vaccine from Oxford university has said that they will be giving it to the people of India at a subsidized price of Rs. 1000/- per dose which is equivalent to about $15 but most probably the cost of the vaccine will be born by the government.

My country decided to produce its own corona vaccine, and may be ready in mid 2021.

It may take some time. But it still dreads the public.

@Janet357 Yes. Sadly making vaccine is complex and time-consuming process.

I hope all of these things going on would end soon and our life would be back to normal. I miss meeting up with my friends when the only thing that I need to be concerned about is would I still have some money left for a ride home. Happy Saturday for you all!.

True. This pandemic almost drained everyone's bank account especially the ordinary people.
