hello? Is this thing on? Hi Burt123, a COVID19 vaccine doesn’t exist. Thought you might like to know.

You completely missed the elephant in the room. Your fuel is running low while you diagnose your landing light bulb. Frightening someone would allow you to be at the controls.

Try sending your kid to camp without a shot card, or a doctor's note explaining why not. Some jurisdictions require it for school.

Heck. Taking it even further, the pediatrician for both my kids won’t even accept new patients who haven’t had their vaccinations or who’s parents don’t plan to vaccinate. Kids who were patients prior to the 1st of 2019 are grandfathered, but anyone after that - “no vaccines, no service”.

Great policy. All doctors should do this

Let’s see how soon the obligatory “Delta turned you down, huh?” retort shows up. I’m wagering sometime within the next three posts.

It’s not the autism from the shots I’m worried about, it’s the micro chips that will be used to track us that concerns me.

They have at least two in trials, with more to come.

You don't have to "find" a vaccine, it's not a scavenger hunt. The first COVID vax was developed (by computer modeling) literally within hours after China released the DNA profile of the virus.

Apples to oranges.

Because the "common cold" isn't a virus. It's a spectrum of symptoms caused by any of hundreds of possible viruses, mostly rhinoviruses but also others including some corona viruses. Vaccines have to be targeted towards specific viruses, which is impossible with the "common cold". The fundamental nature of COVID is such that it doesn't mutate much, so you only have to target one strain, or possibly a few more strains in years to come.

Apples to Pomegranates.

The "flu" can be caused by many strains, and it mutates fast so they have to guess which strains will be problematic and tailor the vaccine for next season accordingly. The flu shot consists of 3-4 separate vaccines for the strains deemed most threatening. Again, the fundamental nature of COVID is such that it doesn't mutate much, so you only have to target one strain, or possibly a few more strains in years to come.

Apples to Elephants. HIV is not even remotely related to COVID (or any other similar respiratory virus), and has a unique mechanism. Irrelevant to this discussion.

They ALREADY have several, with more to come, At any time during the testing they can ramp up production to mass volume. Once that's done they can deploy the vaccine without full testing if it looks good. That decision rests with top leadership and has to balance health risk related to the vaccine with other risks related to sustained economic collapse.

Hysteria much?

Although I guess it depends on your lifestyle and financial obligations.

That might be the best justification yet, so I don't have to fly with wing nuts.

nothing about suggests he/she is a DL pilot. What are you even talking about?

If you had even the most rudimentary understanding of how this virus worked you’d know that, if anything, a strong immune system is a detriment rather than a help, since no one has ever been exposed and built up any immunity to this virus before.

look up “cytokine storm”. Most of the lung damage comes from immune system friendly fire and not the virus itself.

Is there any evidence that cytokine storms are common with this coronavirus? If that was the case, you would see much more death among young people like you did with the Spanish flu.
