In terms of vaccines, we know that they are currently doing a QUICK job, and we HOPE that the outcome is going to be good. Certainly, I'm not saying there's any evidence that the outcome won't be positive. I'm just saying there's no way to know either way. Saying they're "doing a good job" is at best observational guesswork. It's fine that some people are OK with that and comfortable declaring that a good job... but I personally want to see the outcome of "a good job" before I confidently declare it "a good job". Again I have no problem with others thinking this is a good job - I have a problem with certain people "pushing for an answer" to try to smugly railroad others into declaring it a good job, when there are perfectly valid reasons for not wanting to answer that question yet.

My interpretation is the question is about the vaccine roll out?

In terms of orders of vaccine

In terms of investment in research

In terms of infrastructure

In terms of having humans vaccinating 7 days a week

Yes you can add in all sorts of of ifs and buts and what might happen

But in terms of the now..it’s going well


I thought you loved an analogy seems not!
