The vaccine is being fast-tracked and companies are incentivized with more money and less risk for failure than for any other thing before. Yes. I believe they are already [successfully] testing vaccines from several manufactures.
I'm not rushing to be the first even though I'm vaccinated for everything my insurance will cover.
When they say "everyone on the frontlines will get it first", my first thought is: can't they do this in stages?
*laughing at myself because the movie 'I am Legend' comes to mind except that we've killed off all the Dr.s and scientist and we're left with an 'Idiocracy'
Why people would assume (with rock solid conviction in a lot of cases) that all vials contain the same thing is beyond me. When they did the 'tetanus' covert sterilization in Kenya recently it is said that a fraction of the vials come from a specialty lab in Canada while others seemed to have come from a factory.
The Achilles' heal of these programs is that it is quite difficult to implement a situation where vaccines are selected for each _individual_ person. The fallout was that in the 90's when they used the 'tetanus' trick in The Philippines, they hit a medical doctor and she got suspicious and did the investigative work on herself (and found herself to have antibodies for the hormone which is necessary to maintain a pregnancy which is how this 'vaccine' works to cause abortions and sterility.) If they could make sure that 'front liners' who often have some technical expertise get one thing and the 'poor' who are in the next batch get another, such issues are less likely to meet scrutiny.
Unsurprisingly (to me) technological solutions to the problems of individual selection, tracking, and 'pharmicavigilance ' are front-and-center in the efforts to 'solve' the so-called 'covid-19 epidemic' by use of 'vaccines.' As a welcome side-effect, greatly enhanced general surveillance comes along for the ride.
I am Pro-Vaccinations but by choice.
Could or will governments make it mandatory for it's citizens? Hope not
Will private businesses? We will see *airlines come to mind
Most diseases had declined sharply before a vaccine was in use, and it was almost certainly associated with developments in food and sanitation. Some rather unpleasant things, like scarlet fever, never had a vaccine at all and are things of the past.
I'm in favor of people choosing to vaccinate. In fact I specifically asked for a particular vaccine (only) for my daughter (only to find out that they had broken our agreement and vaccinated her with what they wanted anyway when they took her alone into the back room.) This was a result of research into the risks in my environment and the technology used for different vaccines (there are several technologies which are utterly different from one another.)
I can tell you first hand that trained medical doctors who specialize in pediatrics even are often woefully ignorant of much of the science behind these things. Doctors themselves will sometimes admit that they had half a day on vaccines of an 8 year study course and don't know shit about them. All they need to do to maintain their careers is memorize a few pharma generated talking points and repeat them. Such as 'safe and effective.'
