Vaccines are hopefully arriving
Here's some more on the production of vaccines against Coronavirus:
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday he expects no problems with the country’s ability to store millions of virus vaccines in freezing conditions and then reliably distribute them to the public, and claimed the end to the coronavirus crisis is in sight.Thank goodness. It's about time.
Netanyahu personally helped negotiate a deal with one of the companies developing a vaccine, US-based pharmaceutical Pfizer, but the product, which is still in the trial stage, has faced concerns because it needs to be stored at -70° Celsius (-94° Fahrenheit), including in transit.
“We aren’t just seeing the light at the end of the tunnel here, but a very big torch,” Netanyahu said. He was speaking alongside Health Minister Yuli Edelstein during a tour of the central logistics center set up to deal with the distribution of millions of doses of coronavirus vaccines by various companies set to arrive in Israel in the coming months.
