@kevcvs57 saidThere is a lot of information about this -- many say that the initial test run was supposed to be 32 or so to prove the efficacy of the vaccine, and this was completed by mid October, but the testers decided to make the new standard higher, so the information was not released until after the election.
Possibly a vaccine bounce. It makes me wonder how much closer the election would have been if these vaccines announcements had been made a few weeks earlier.
A biotech sector expert has suggested that the announcement of a new successful COVID-19 vaccine was deliberately delayed until after the presidential election so it didn’t boost Trump’s chances of winning.
...
According to Barry Norris of Argonaut Capital Partners, an expert on the biotech sector, the announcement could have been made sooner and was likely delayed so that Trump couldn’t take full credit.
“There are 44,000 people in the trial with half in the placebo,” Norris told LockdownSceptics.org. “They were supposed to read out after just 32 cases in total. It was thought that the trial hadn’t yet read out because they hadn’t yet had enough infections.”
“The trial actually read out after 94 cases, so they delayed it on purpose apparently as a result of “discussions with the FDA”. This smells like they didn’t want to announce it pre-Presidential election in case the ‘good news’ helped the incumbent. Trump must be fuming,” he added.[1]
