https://edition.cnn.com/2020/08/22/politics/trump-fda-coronavirus-vaccine/index.html. Politics vs Science >>> Trump has promised that a vaccine would be available by the end of the year, though vaccinologists told CNN that timeline is unrealistic. Who do you trust?, definitely not that moron who is so desperate to be re-elected and save his own empire.

Trust is relative, not absolute. If you are going for a heart transplant, will you trust your Dad or Mom to do the surgery? By the way, who the hell is Trump, Putin, Duterte, etc? just like any low-class politicians....

Please bear in mind that Scientists still do not know well about Covid-19, not how many companies are developing the vaccine. Unfortunately, people are expecting straight answer to everything while there might not be one, and some talk like they knew about vaccine, immune system, etc more than anyone else in the world.

Aug 21 2020 >> The head of the World Health Organization (WHO) has said that while there is hope for a vaccine against Covid-19, one might never be found. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told a news briefing there was "no silver bullet at the moment - and there might never be". So, how can you be sure that a safe and high efficacy vaccine is coming? The question going forward is that if there is no vaccine in-sight in the short to medium term, what are we going to do about it? Definitely, we need to embrace the new norm and better hygiene and probably a faster response to outbreak, thus all healthcare related stock will be doing well. Please bear in mind that till today the Scientists do not know well about Covid-19, and it's not about how many companies are developing the vaccine.

Take it easy! Glove theme is very much in play. Fundamental is in tact. Bombastic earnings in coming quarters. Retracement/pullback is expected. It is still on uptrend Elliot Wave, merely temporary pullback. Probably Accumulation for a few more days, whereby the price swing (up and down) will get softer and softer and volume is thinner and thinner before pushing up again. You only need to worry if the company is losing money, quarter after quarter.

"rr88" >> take Moderna for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moderna, "As of May 2020, Moderna was valued at $30 billion, but none of its mRNA molecules had reached large clinical trials, and several had failed due to side-effects." What is the point if the vaccine is not effective neither safe like a snake-oil salesman. Even if you employ several bodyguards, it does mean that it is effective against unknown mercenaries. Inducing antibody is useless if that is not able to provide sufficient protection and also not knowing how long the antibody will last, discounting the possibility of devastating side effects that comes with it. A healthy person will get sick and risk his/her life for taking an useless vaccine. Russia is full of hot air, trying to rally its people believing they are the first in this and that like the Sputnik 1 but the country is still remained torn.

Just a quick summary from the collection of thoughts from the scientist/medical-practitioner, not politicians :-
1) Scientist still do not know Covid well
2) Normally a safe and "highly" effective vaccine will take 10 years or more to develop
3) Covid is mutating very fast
4) Covid is too widespread
5) FDA and WHO consider to release the vaccine with minimum 50% efficacy, with the "hope" to control the spread, not putting an end to it.
6) Vaccine production, distribution and dispensing will take 1 - 2 years
7) Increasing number of people growing skeptical against this fast-track vaccine, about 50% of the western population and will not take the vaccine even if that is available.
8) Quite likely minimum 2 shots would be required (at certain interval) and re-vaccination on annual basis like flu shot would be required, yet actual production/distribution is unable to meet this schedule.
9) Cost wise would burden many third world countries in the long run though many are shun by the subject
Going forward, assuming a safe vaccine with 50% efficacy is conceived in 2021 (and we would be damm lucky to have 50% efficacy vaccine by 2021), Covid is able to be brought under somewhat but not total controlled (nor stopped/eliminated) in 2022/2023. Please take note that 50% is based upon clinical trial and without regard of the efficacy in actual environment and also against new variant that will surface along the way. Major outbreak will take place from time to time, and from one place to another, while high alert remain in place throughout. PPE remained highly in demand with the SOP remain in place, just like the stricter airport SOP remained till today even though Sept 11 incident is long gone. Just a small Covid cluster will catch the global headline. Glove demand will remain high after 2023 though may not be at the level during its peak. Leadtime may reduce from 12 months+ to probably 5 - 6 months, as compared to 1 month or less in pre-Covid era. Therefore, ASP remain high, probably at today's or next QR level (since they have merely increase 5% ASP in last QR), instead of further escalation.
Harta will see bombastic earning next QR after another and may only taper marginally from 2022/2023 without taking into consideration of patented Anti Microbial Glove or AMG (which is schedule to be approved by FDA this year) and additional supply from new plants coming into operation successively in next couple years i.e. Plant No.8 to 12 in NGC and new NGC2.0 in Banting, your guess on the TP is as good as mine. We have to acknowledge post Covid will not be the same again like the Sep 11 incident and in Covid case it impacted the whole world. Vaccine and glove will complement each other, not one or the other. Please note that Malaysia Rubber Glove Manufacturer Association (MARGMA) forecast 12% annual growth of global demand for glove under normal case. That is too say the glove manufacturer will see higher and higher revenue.
A more realistic expectation is that a highly effective vaccine would be conceived in 10 years time when the scientist get to know more about Covid-19 and how to fight it. By then, all glove manufacturers would have at least double its size and world demand had grown exponentially (based on 12% annual estimate by MARGMA). Hopefully we don't have to deal with another new outbreak.

Take it easy! Only 1 week. Maybe another few more days before rebounding. Very very profitable next few quarters. How many counters has such prospect? Fundamental still intact. The bottom line is that Scientist still do not understand Covid well, but politicians are pushing the agenda and latest strain is 10x more contagious and only identified in July thus very likely not accounted for in most vaccine which is already in phase 3. Who would you trust? Politicians or our Dr. Hisham? Another disturbing fact is that many do not buy into this vaccine rush and will not take the vaccine even if one that is safe and highly effective available down the road whether in 2021, 2022, ........ (or worst case is that there is no safe and effective vaccine).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moderna
Moderna is an American biotechnology company focused on drug discovery, drug development, and vaccine technologies based exclusively on messenger RNA (mRNA). It is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts.[4][5] The Moderna technology platform is to insert synthetic mRNA into living cells that would reprogram the cells to develop immune responses, rather than being created externally and injected as with conventional medicines. It is a novel technique abandoned by several large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that were unable to overcome the side effects of inserting RNA into cells.[6][7][8] As of May 2020, no mRNA drug has been approved for human use.[9][10]
Moderna has conducted mostly unsuccessful trials in traditional high-margin chronic therapeutic areas with AstraZeneca, and in orphan diseases with Alexion Pharmaceuticals. In 2014, Moderna moved to focus on lower-margin vaccines, given that an mRNA vaccine – efficacy issues aside – will always stimulate a level of antibody development in subjects.[5][8] The strategic change led industry experts, and Moderna employees, to question the financial viability of the company.[5][8]
In December 2018, Moderna became the largest biotech initial public offering (IPO) in history, raising US$600 million for 8% of its shares, implying an overall valuation of $7.5 billion, and with cumulative losses of $1.5 billion and equity raised of $3.2 billion, since inception.[5][11] As of May 2020, Moderna was valued at $30 billion, but none of its mRNA molecules had reached large clinical trials, and several had failed due to side-effects.

All the world leaders (politicians) are clueless but just want to show they are doing something like drinking Clorox. All these superpowers' leaders just show us how childlish, naive and stupid they are. Probably our government will be begging and agreeing to whatever the foreign Pharma term is, just to move up in the queue because it will take much much much time for manufacturing and dsitribution. Definitely, Msia will not be the first, second nor third in line. Good thing is that our Covid cases is kept at bay but the flipside is that the foreign Pharma may not see any urgency to give it to Malaysia, probably more devastated country will receive it first.

You do not want healthy people with high chances of survival against Covid while also many may be asymptomatic to have another rare life threatening disease, reduce life expectancy and increase chances of heart attack, diabetes, etc. All the naysayers are drumming up about Vaccine, Vaccine, Vaccine, as though they know about Covid more than any experts in the world.

The good thing is that the music is still on. Russia vaccine is a hoax. World leaders are clueless and politicking everyday churning fake news one after another. As much as I was hoping that a safe and high efficacy vaccine will be available soon but the reality is not. Even if I make good money from glove stock but that is probably not enough to cover reduction in salary, bonus, allowance, etc while we can't enjoy life and freedom like before. Can't go overseas for holiday, can't enjoy the fall-winter season. Even some of our favourite imported food and goods are difficult to source. School is no longer fun, no outdoor activities, no curriculum. No blockbuster movies, kept recycling old movies. No concert. No live sports. No Olympics. Difficult to dispatch our staff for overseas project. Difficult to collect payment. Festive celebration has to be toned down. Yes, I'm all for the vaccine so we can go back to the old norm. But as long as the glove music is playing, I'll just dance to it.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/science/coronavirus-vaccine-t... Forget about Wuhan vaccine which has started circulated. The first approved vaccine (approved by China) is CanSinoBio but nobody knows if they actually vaccinate the army, how many, etc. The second is Russia Sputnik (approved by Russia). The Sputnik is just like the Sputnik during cold war, went up into the space, orbited for 3 weeks and then fell back onto earth; Russia fall apart there-after, full of hot air. Being first but nothing else. How the Smart Money / Market Maker will manipulate the market, I don't know. I only know the company fundamental, prospect, earning, etc are SOLID. Just follow the flow and your investment strategy. Please bear in mind the country GDP is -6% (nominal) and -10% (worst case), this figure will change in accordance to the development which is mostly negative. Initially, BNM only estimated 0% to -2%, so you have to plan your investment and the bottom line is that it must be making good profit in the coming quarters.

"tssl74" - Yes, it comes with a filter but not sure about the one that the company will provide because HR is arranging it. We were told to be given five each with company logo and different color on the trim to easily distinguish which was worn on which day.

"gglagg" - pity you, selling your soul spreading fake news to get others to dump the ticket. Anywhere, that is how you make a living so no point to entertain you. You will just change your username and hopping from one place to another. As mentioned above, I bought some at 3.70.

"gglagg" >> Russia car and truck are also out already. You should be happy to get, why ain't getting any Russian product? It's not the first but whether it is effective and safe. If it is proven, please show the clinical result and data, not just talk-cock even lower than our politicians.

"Sathya9121" - face mask is of course required but just that it was oversupplied. I can get 50pcs 95% BFE disposable mask at RM15 from the market. My friend also started mask business to keep the company floating since his primary business is suffering but more on cloth mask and with fancy design. My company is ordering cloth mask now in view of the hassle with disposable mask and also it will be at least till end of 2021 before such regulation will be lifted. So you can see the trending on mask. Unless, regulation suggest that it should be N95 then it is a different story. But Tom, Dick and Harry on the street put on a piece of thing to cover the face and treat it as mask.

"gglagg" - Got vaccine doesn't mean it is effective nor safe. BCG vaccine may be over 99% efficacy but flu vaccine is only 40% to 60%. Normally vaccines is effective if the scientist understand well of the nature of virus and also taking years of research, development and testing. But today scientists are still trying to understand Covid-19 and accelerating the pace without any clue hoping that it could achieve 50% efficacy. Russia vaccine? Your guess is as good as mine. Might as well try Russian roulette.

https://edition.cnn.com/2020/08/22/politics/trump-fda-coronavirus-vaccine/index.html. Politics vs Science >>> Trump has promised that a vaccine would be available by the end of the year, though vaccinologists told CNN that timeline is unrealistic. Who do you trust?, definitely not that moron who is so desperate to be re-elected and save his own empire.
