Good morning! Today: this is what we'll have to do to prove a coronavirus vaccine works, and how robots could help smaller stores survive. Get your friends to sign up here to get The Download every day.
Here’s what we have to do to show a coronavirus vaccine works
Racing ahead: The moonshot program to come up with a vaccine against covid-19 is advancing faster than anyone could have hoped. At least four have been shown to protect monkeys, and three of those are already being given to brave human volunteers. The aim is a vaccine by January, and money is no object. It’s all good news. But the next hurdle is the biggest one: proving that a vaccine candidate actually works.
What’s coming: Researchers will launch several huge efficacy studies involving thousands of volunteers this summer. This is going to be the most costly part of testing a vaccine, and also the hardest to speed up. That’s because researchers will have to wait for people in the study to get accidentally infected with the virus, and then check how often those given the vaccine get sick.
A good problem to have: With covid-19 getting beaten back in cities like New York, successful efforts to suppress the disease could perversely make it harder to test a vaccine. The irony is that the process will go faster if the covid-19 outbreak keeps flaring up.
Potential setbacks: There are also warnings that even if everything goes perfectly and we find a vaccine (or vaccines) in an unprecedentedly short timeframe, there could be delays in manufacturing it at scale, and persuading enough people to get the shot. Read the full story. 
—Antonio Regalado

Robots could help save your local store from going out of business
Coming to your local store: Big online stores like Amazon and Ocado are based around vast automated warehouses. Robots keep costs down and make order fulfillment quicker and more accurate. Now, given a series of lockdowns that could go on for months or even years, this kind of automation could be key if smaller retailers are to survive. The way we shop is changing: the future of retail automation is smaller, closer to home, and more flexible. 
The danger: According to the US Department of Commerce, retail sales in the US fell by 16.4% last month—the worst drop since reporting began in 1992. Many physical stores have closed. But it’s not all bad news. Others are seeing their online business explode and finding it hard to meet demand. The biggest shift is in groceries. “It’s as if e-commerce jumped ahead five years,” says Vince Martinelli, CEO of Right Hand Robotics, a US firm that installs robotic arms. 
The upshot: Smaller retailers are benefiting from the way the big guns have changed the field in recent years, operating vast out-of-town fulfilment centers filled with thousands of robots, managed by a central AI. Read the full story

If you are wondering where the pages that contained the words "excerpt", "Introducing" or other words indicating I was quoting a book have all gone, I migrated all of them over to Posts and Posted them all on August 18 and August 19 2024. I did that so you could use the search widget that is built in to the blog on the upper right hand corner. You will be happy to know that there are more of them than just the batch that were migrated, there were also lots of posts that contained the same words that did not have to be migrated over, they were there all along. I am really enjoying doing introductions and excerpts because it really makes for powerful and fascinating reading when I do them. You get the feeling you are in a bookstore holding a book in your hand looking at the table of contents and deciding whether or not to buy the book.

Contributions Welcome

The following request applies to any of the christian ministries that are currently getting visitors from my blog:

I am currently blogging: https://webmaster220.blogspot.com
I would like to place a banner on the right side of my home page that promotes your ministry
If I do that and it helps your ministry grow and expand do you have a suggestion as to what type of commission or contribution could be paid to my ministry. The reason I am saying that is there are a lot of ministries out there that are buying advertising space online and yours could be one of them for all I know. I have been an affiliate marketer for years on my blog but no commissions have ever been earned even though I am doing everything required to be done to earn the commissions. My blog readers are just not interested in spending any money on any of the goods or services discussed in my banner ads and text links. To reply, use the contact form below this paragraph Thanks, Rick Livermore - Webmaster220
