By SHLOMO MAITAL DECEMBER 22, 2020 12:28 8000 British author Norman Lebrecht faces the media holding his Whitbread Book of the Year Award entry, 'The Song of Names,' in London in 2003.

Actually - not a bar, but a research lab. And it's not a joke. It's about brilliant people, all of them emigres, some Jewish, whose vaccines will hopefully save countless lives in Israel and the world. And there is a back story - about a century of Jewish genius that changed the world. It is recounted brilliantly by Norman Lebrecht, a British journalist and novelist, and graduate of Bar-llan University, in his book Genius and Anxiety: HowJews Changed the World, 1847-1947. Let's begin with the vaccine. On Friday, November 13, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu signed a deal with the giant US pharmaceutical company Pfizer to purchase millions of coronavirus vaccine doses. It was only days after Pfizer announced clinical trials showed the vaccine was 90% effective at preventing COVID-19.

Biovac will obtain drug substance from facilities in Europe, and manufacturing of finished doses will commence in 2022. At full operational capacity, the annual production will exceed 100 million finished doses annually. All doses will exclusively be distributed within the 55 member states that make up the African Union. “From day one, our goal has been to provide fair and equitable access of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine to everyone, everywhere,” said Albert Bourla, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Pfizer. “Our latest collaboration with Biovac is a shining example of the tireless work being done, in this instance to benefit Africa. We will continue to explore and pursue opportunities to bring new partners into our supply chain network, including in Latin America, to further accelerate access of COVID-19 vaccines.” “We aim to enable people on all continents to manufacture and distribute our vaccine while ensuring the quality of the manufacturing process and the doses,” said Ugur Sahin, M.D., CEO and Co-founder of BioNTech.

Schedules: White House and Congress WHITE HOUSE • 9:00 PM: President Biden addresses a joint session of Congress. CONGRESS: • The Senate is set to take up a measure today that would reinstate an Obama-era rule limiting harmful methane emissions from oil and gas drilling. • The Senate Judiciary Committee’s initial hearing for Biden’s first judicial nominations, including D.C. Circuit nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson, will take place today. Congressional, Health Policy, and Political News • Bloomberg Government: Medicare Age Eligibility: Biden’s new American Families Plan calls for the lowering of the age to 60 for people to voluntarily enroll in Medicare, according to a White House fact sheet. Congressional Democrats have supported such a move, and want to help fund the benefits expansion with $456 billion that Medicare could save over 10 years through Biden’s plan to let the program negotiate its own drug prices. o After the massive loss of jobs and employer-based health coverage due to Covid- 19, Democrats say public support for their plan is strong. A recent Gallup poll found roughly 46 million Americans couldn’t pay for quality health care if they needed it. And even before the pandemic struck, 77% of Americans, including 69% of Republicans, favored letting adults ages 50 to 64 buy into the Medicare program, according to a January 2019 poll by the Kaiser Family Foundation.
