The cumulative number of confirmed cases related to the Hongdae New Church in Mapo-gu, Seoul, increased to 119.
Quarantine authorities estimate that there will be between 400 and 600 patients a day early next month.

◆ United States Shifts 6 Million People to Thanksgiving … “Covid-19 Outbreak in 1-2 Weeks”
A total of 5.95 million people have traveled by air since Thanksgiving 20 in the United States. Even on the 25th, the day before Thanksgiving, 107,967 people flew in by plane.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) predicted that 60,000 more will be sacrificed in the next three weeks, with the cumulative death toll reaching 321,000 by Dec. 19. “The death rate per day will double in the next ten days,” said Jonathan Reiner, a professor at the George Washington School of Medicine. “There will be about 4,000 deaths per day.”

◆ AstraZeneca CEO “Additional Corona Vaccine Global Clinical Trial”
A new vaccine against coronavirus infection (Corona 19) developed by the University of Oxford in the UK and AstraZeneca is expected to undergo further global clinical trials. “As we have found a way that works better, we have to prove it,” said Pascal Sorio AstraZeneca, CEO. Revealed. This is due to doubts about the reliability of the vaccine.
Previously, AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford announced that the average immunity effect was 70% as a result of initial data analysis from a phase 3 clinical trial of the vaccine they are developing. The prevention effect was 90% of the participants who took half the vaccine dose first and who took the full dose after one month. Prophylaxis for those who took the full dose at both doses was 62%. Researchers have yet to determine the cause of the different immune effects depending on the dose. It was also belatedly revealed that the participants who got half the serving here are all under the age of 55 and do not have an elderly population.
Russia’s second COVID-19 vaccine ‘breakthrough’
Phase 3 trials of Russia’s second COVID-19 vaccine have begun. This is an Epibakcorona vaccine developed by Vector, the National Center for Virus Research and Biotechnology, under the Supervisory Authority for Welfare and Protection of Consumer Rights (Rosport Revnadzor). Hospitals like Moscow will select 3,000 of the 4,000 volunteers to take the test. Authorities officially approved Epibakcorona in October. Epibakcorona became the second nationally approved vaccine after Sputinique V. The Epibaccorona vaccine has been administered as a synthetic antigen vaccine produced by synthesizing an antigen that is part of a protein that causes an immune response. The Sputnik V vaccine was a carrier vaccine made by inserting the Corona 19 virus gene into another virus that is harmless to the human body. Furthermore, in Russia, the Chumakov Center for Immunological Biology, under the local academy of sciences, is developing another COVID-19 vaccine, with phase 2 expected to end in December.
