meet the pre-defined endpoints in clinical trials; competition to create 
a vaccine for COVID-19; the ability to produce comparable clinical or 
other results, including our stated rate of vaccine effectiveness and 
safety and tolerability profile observed to date, in the remainder of 
the trial or in larger, more diverse populations upon commercialization; 
the ability to effectively scale our productions capabilities; and other 
potential difficulties.
