[QUOTE="Akendall1966, post: 2332925, member: 533549"] There seems to be a misconception that it rushed and the science is being short cut to achieve the fast development. Whereas I think you will find time is being saved by overlapping the phases. That creates a commercial/ financial risk in that you invest a lot of money in starting a phase before you know the outcome of the previous phase. The science is the same the sunk cost is much greater. With government underwriting that approach the drug companies risk share a drug not be effective and safe and being abandoned before commercial release. That's my understanding and am happy to be vaccinated at the earliest opportunity. Also remember this is a one time vaccination not an ongoing therapeutic you take daily for decades so long term studies are unlikely to be relevant as it will have done its job and be out of yout system in weeks of having it.
