Pfizer's CEO Dr. Albert Bourla explained on @FaceTheNation in September why the company didn't take money through Operation Warp Speed for R&D of a COVID vaccine:

Becoming the preeminent locus of agglomeration for the world's plucky up-and-comers has been one of the US's greatest achievements and most potent advantages.

2. Hay que adaptar los gráficos a lo que el público entiende.
3. La prensa (y fuentes) debería añadir el tercer tipo de gráfico que propongo.

En la región de Véneto han experimentado en un foco de contagio que realizar pruebas a todos los ciudadanos para aislar a los asintomaticos ha tumbado la propagación. Es un dato importante. Es lo opuesto de lo que decía Fernando Simón y no me sorprende ilsole24ore.com/art/veneto-c…
