Ugly facts:
*Death rate among patients admitted to hospital (HFR): 15%
*Days from first symptom to death: 14 days
*Globally, about 3.4% of reported COVID-19 cases have died. By comparison, seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than 1% of those infected.” [13]

This is a perfect example of facts we hate to hear but need to know.

“Research and development take time and must be done right,” he said. “But this is encouraging news.”

 

 

Seems in line with an interview I saw on cnn with a vaccine specialist.  She said as fast as they’re working they may have a vaccine approved for emergency use in front line staff this fall and wide use by spring.   Even then that is mind boggling fast.  And you know there will be a lot of backlash to taking it.

12-18 months from when Wuhan first broke out would be late this year or summer 2021, so I figure the timeline is right on schedule. It won't be available to the masses until early next year likely, which is about right. Should give the Powers That Be a chance to breathe and say that we can do big gatherings again, gradually.

Sorry to disillusion you, but the shortest time a vaccine has been able to be brought out through research and all three levels of testing has been three years. Moreover, a vaccine may not even be possible- AIDS for example, was never able to have a vaccine developed, but a treatment regimen using a combination of drugs was developed. It may even become a resident virus, appearing from time to time.

I wouldn't hold my breathe for a vaccine, SARS has been around for 18 years and they couldn't come up with a vaccine for it, despite it being far more dangerous, same with MERS.

Maybe they will surprise us but they are already talking about living with it, like AIDS.

A new study found that social distancing worked to limit the spread of coronavirus in the United States and may have prevented tens of millions of infections.

The study, published Thursday in the journal Health Affairs, found that government-imposed social distancing cut the virus’ daily growth rate by about 9% after roughly three weeks.

Without any social distancing measures at all, the number of coronavirus cases in the US could have been 35 times higher, the researchers estimated.

More on this vaccine that we seem to be working on in partnership with China:

Quote

By bringing their respective technologies and expertise together to fight COVID-19, CanSino Biologics and the National Research Council of Canada are aiming to pave the way for future clinical trials in Canada, in collaboration with the Canadian Immunization Research Network at the Canadian Center for Vaccinology. The vaccine is subject to approval by Health Canada, for which CanSinoBIO is in the process of filing a Clinical Trial Application.

The Ad5-nCoV was developed using technology from both China and Canada. It was co-developed by the Beijing Institute of Biotechnology (BIB) and CanSino Biologics Inc. using a genetically engineered replication-defective adenovirus type 5 vector to express the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, which is grown using living cells that were designed and developed at the National Research Council of Canada.

Interesting stats,

https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/more-canadian-women-have-covid-19-and-are-dying-as-a-result-here-s-some-possible-reasons-why/ar-BB14cIaE?ocid=msedgntp

More men have died from COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, across the world than women — except in Canada.

Could have been the whiskey

Might have been the gin

Could have been the 3 or 4 six packs

I don't know.....

Yup because this world is just one big conspiracy after the other, well coordinated by specific people across many spectrums with pin point accuracy and if you can’t see this, you’re just being ignorant. Look how historically we’ve been duped on so many things. Where’s my guns?

They must wonder why no one comes to kill them right in their beds...
