 Covid Virus Pandemic Map - November 13, 2020



On Monday, November 9, 2020, there was a very big announcement that gave the world a sense of hope - the first results from a unique vaccine trial..  The back story of the “dream science couple” vaccine researchers is inspiring as we heard about the long personal preparation for their rapid innovative response to the pandemic.  This is an immigrant story from Germany.


Earlier this month, we were informed about individual response differences to the disease. - how our individual genetic codes the responses to the virus infection. We are beginning to identify specific individual risks to the Covid virus. 


The bad news is that the pandemic is reaching new records of cases and deaths.  There is a race to approve, produce, and distribute limited amounts of vaccines.  The efforts by teams around the world will continue to search for our best responses - public and personal.


Stay tuned for the rest of the story,


Marvin
