Welcome to firing line, albert bourl thank you very much, margaret. Dr. Bourla, t question on everyones mind is, when will average americans realistically be able to get the covid19 i believe, sometime in the next year maybe the third or the Second Quarter. Inand the reason why im s that we will be able to provide to the American People around 20 million doses or more this year. But this is 10 Million People with two does, and im sure that the alth authorities would like to use them strategically. So, at the beginning, who will get the vaccine will be predetermined by them. As and likely, me, it will be people either with high risk or firstlineorkers. So i believe that we will reach a level around Second Quarter that maybe people can just go and get them in thr pharmacies or at the Physician Office at their will. Do you think, by next summer . I think so. By next summer should be fine. L t about the shot. The vaccine uses mrna technology, which is ahn breahrough togy for vaccinations.
Close at the open. The road map begins with that renewed vaccine optimism and detailing their own strong data. Plus as for the market, the u. S. Stocks poised for new records and the futures are and investor optimism about that vaccine and dow is within striking distance of 30,000. We have a lot of deals this morning. Pnc looking to become one of americas largest banks and set to buy spanish bank and 11. 6 billion the Purchase Price and other deals to tell you about this morning carl lets start with the moderna news excellent news for the second week in a row. Dr. Fauci on some of the networks earlier today saying the data are striking and the results are just as good as it gets i really think we have to go back just a couple months and recognize that even if we had any hope that there would be a successful vaccine maybe 70 , 80 . 50 to 60 for the flu is something we learned moderna Insider Selling was bad and turns out the Insider Selling was bad meaning they sold badly i do think wha
Sen. Graham i think we have senator blumenthal remotely, is that correct . Is it ok if we move forward . Sen. Blumenthal absolutely. Sen. Graham this is about censorship and suppression of the 2020 election. Sort of a deep dive when it comes to twitter and facebook about the platforms and the decisions they make, how they make them, can we do better, chemically do we need to do better . The first thing i want to talk about here is health risk associated with social media. A 2018 Pew Research Center survey of nearly 750 13 to 17yearolds found that 45 are online almost constantly and 97 use social media platforms such as youtube, facebook, instagram, or snapchat. If so why are we having this hearing . The products that these two companies offer, people like and they use. So the bottom line is theyve probably been more successful than their wildest dreams, and theyre having to make decisions that offend people on the left and the right. And what were trying to do is look at section 230 an

Other, whose platform and has done more to protect the 2020 president ial election. Mark zuckerberg is going all in on the claim that facebooks moves have been historic. They have done more than any other country in history to make sure bad, fake information about this election is staying off of their platform. I will paraphrase something he said. They introduced new policies to combat Voter Suppression and misinformation and we worked with local Election Officials to remove hundreds of thousands of false claims about polling conditions. That he worried could have led to Voter Suppression. There is one thing so far in this hearing everyone agrees on, that is which posts stay up on these platforms, which come down and which get slapped with warning labels should definitely not be up to the u. S. Government. Take a listen. When it comes time to flag content as being reliable or not reliable do either one of you believe that the government should do that . I dont believe so. I think that
