Description
As we post this podcast, the US has vaccinated about 7.6 percent of our population, The UK is at 11.7%. Canada and Germany are hovering around 2.5 percent, France is at 1.7 percent, and Israel is at Over 50%.Scott and I have been talking, and he has laid out a pretty interesting take on how we’ll quickly hit a tipping point on vaccinations, when we won’t have a vaccine supply problem, but a consumer demand problem, meaning not enough people lining up for the vaccine. Scott also has insights into the new variants, what a gradual post-corona return to normalcy could look like, and perhaps most concerning - what we have learned about future national security risks from viruses as bio-weapons?
