Are you planning to receive a COVID vaccine as soon as one is available?

I talked about this with my wife and I personally feel that if it’s approved by FDA and meets all the requirements it has to be safe. Following news that vaccine trials by Pfizer and Moderna have both proven to be about 95% effective, the question now is: when will they be available? NBC News reports that could be as soon as end of December. But here's what needs to happen first:

· An Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) application must be submitted to the FDA for review by the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) - which is schedule to meet Dec. 8-10. The group may want answers to follow up questions.

· A CDC advisory committee will make recommendations of which groups of people should be first in line to receive the vaccine(s). The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has a scheduled meeting on Nov. 23, but no planned vote.

· Health officials expect front line workers - doctors and nurses - to receive the vaccine(s) first. Followed by the elderly and individuals at high risk due to health issues. The general public likely won't be in line until Spring or Summer 2021.

According to NBC6; Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami and Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood are among the first hospitals in Florida that will receive Covid-19 vaccines, officials said Wednesday. Frontline health care workers, long-term care staff and residents, and first responders would be the first groups to get the vaccine.
