The COVID-19 vaccine

Some thoughts.

I'm pretty sure that the vaccine will be safe. Healthcare workers and the US military will be required to get the vaccine before I even have the option. If, God forbid, the vaccine turns out to be a deadly trap, then China will be able to walk in and Winnie the Pooh will be the next US President. But as long as I don't see Chinese troops on the streets, I'll know the vaccine is safe.

It's ironic that Trump seems to have the most anti-vax supporters. Some think that if the vaccine is released before the election, it will have an impact on the election. Conventional wisdom holds that when bad things happen to the country, that helps the challenger. Good things supposedly help the incumbent. 

A COVID-19 vaccine is very good news, but is it going to change the minds of many voters? My guess is that Trump might gain some pro-vax support and lose some anti-vax support. I'm terrible with predictions though. I'm glad the vaccine is coming out, regardless of its impact on the election.
