| #9 76 People Tried Russia’s Coronavirus Vaccine That's a Phase 1 sample size (does the test vaccine make people ill?). Phase 2 determines dosage and involves hundreds to thousands of people. |

| #6 Got my tin foil hat on here but: How do we know the Russians didn't get this vaccine from China? How do we know the CCP didn't have this vaccine all tested and ready before they released the virus? |

| #5 Let the Russia bashing begin anew! How dare the western pharmaceutical-industrial complex not be the first ones on their block to use people as guinea pigs and with immunity from lawsuits. And how dare investors make a bet a fail with the stocks they bought only to have Russia potentially win the race to a vaccine. |

| #4 From #2 article: In an interview with CNBC, Gottlieb said in addition to the limited number of patients involved in trials, it appears to be similar to a vaccine being developed by Chinese biotech CanSino which is currently in clinical trials in Canada. “Early data on that vaccine is not very encouraging,” he said. “A lot of people had antibodies to the viral vector itself, so they effectively neutralized the viral vector, because it was based on a common cold.” It’s not clear if the Russian trial will also find patients have prior immunity, he said. Also vaccine tested on less than 100 people. Data not made public. |
