You point that out?

Okay, professor, there is There is much excitement right now about the efficacy off these vaccines that are being developed.

好的，教授，現在人們對這些正在研發的疫苗的療效非常興奮。

But tell us about the potential challenges that we might face in distributing and administering the vaccine in Africa just from your experience with the Ebola vaccine, for example, you know, during the first time we were using the Ebola vaccine, that's vaccine has to be used on the minus 80 degrees.

但是請告訴我們，僅從你使用埃博拉疫苗的經驗來看，我們在非洲分發和管理疫苗可能面臨的挑戰，比如說，你知道，在我們第一次使用埃博拉疫苗的時候，那是疫苗必須在零下80度的情況下使用。

And then we were using it in three countries, and it was a very big challenge.

But also we'll need to look at if he gets 90% off efficacy for a vaccine for a disease that affect people like us, where we know that our probability off dying is like one or 2%.

但我們也需要看看他是否能獲得90%的療效，對於一種影響像我們這樣的人的疾病的疫苗，我們知道我們的死亡概率只有1%或2%。

That's not that's not a lot, especially if we don't know the severe adverse event.

那不是那不是很多，尤其是在我們不知道嚴重不良事件的情況下。

So I think Africa will be more.

所以我覺得非洲會更。

Let's see, picky in choosing which vaccine should work, should be using our population.

我看，挑剔的選擇哪種疫苗有效，應該是用我們的人口。
