Drawn up by the Washington DC-based Nuclear Threat Initiative and the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in Baltimore, Maryland, the 2019 Global Health Security Index (GHSI) placed the US and UK first and second, respectively. South Korea came ninth, New Zealand 35th and China 51st, while a number of African countries brought up the rear.

5 popular myths about the COVID-19 vaccine and what the science really says TODAY 2/10/2021 © Provided by TODAY Misinformation is rampant on social media and myths about the coronavirus vaccines started circulating even before vaccines had been approved. While the experts say that some side effects from vaccines can happen, many ideas circulating online are untrue. “There s always some risk being associated with vaccines, but those risks are likely to be highly outweighed by the benefits of the vaccine,” Virginia Pitzer, an associate professor epidemiology at Yale School of Public Health in New Haven, Connecticut, told TODAY. “The number of people who have already received the vaccine without any severe side effects suggest that if any side effects occur, they re likely to be very, very rare.”
