[Airline] Rebound Tied Directly To Vaccine
 

Starting a thread for vaccine-related news. Since the Regional Rebound won't fully occur until there is a vaccine and it being the primary solution to all of the negativity on this board, this is a place to share Vaccine related news that impacts regionals going forward.

Sooner than expected. Many in the pipeline.

This will be a good thread if used properly. Thanks for starting it!

Link says 1 million vaccinations by EOY 20; that’s a ways away from soon.

Influenza vaccination rates for US adults are typically about 50% and in the low 60s% for children.

annually about 40,000 people in the US die of influenza:

As of this morning the coronavirus US deaths are just over 17,000.

So what percentage of people are going to take a coronavirus immunization even if we have one?

As long as we are speculating about hypotheticals I mean...

That's a fair question, but I'm not sure it will matter. The public "mood" towards air travel will likely rebound much faster if they believe there's a solution to the virus. It's the same reason seasonal flu doesn't slow anyone down. The mindset is set around "there's a vaccine for that, so it can't hurt me" - as flawed as that logic may be.

More than the flu shot I'll bet.

If nothing else the media hype will drive them to it.

There's over 40 vaccines in development. You're right, about a year until they are released. I have six figures in regular savings in addition to my retirement funds. I hope you all do too.

No worries! Johnson & Johnson is all over saving the world with their vaccine. They won’t let you down like that one company producing cancer causing baby powder. Oh wait....

That’s pretty awesome though I didn’t realize as much as 50 percent of the population is capable of formulating a risk/reward analysis when it comes to sticking something foreign in their arm.

6 figures in a savings account? Keep 10 in there and make some money with that 90.

nothing says pilot like bragging about your savings account to strangers on the internet
