August 20, 20206 yr Active Members Interesting. Thanks for sharing. Fingers crossed there is a legitimate vaccine by early fall to avoid a second wave.
August 31, 20206 yr Author Active Members While I was getting my flu shot at Kaiser last week a nurse mentioned "they" were paying $700 to be in the stage III trials. hmmm. Unfortunately the vaccine is two shots a month apart but it seems very safe, very effective and may be better as a nasal spray eventually. (Let's hope it's more effective than the flu shot).The US government has 300 million doses paid for being made now and the EU has 500 million. https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/experimental-coronavirus-vaccine-safe-produces-immune-response https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2020/08/28/906797539/what-a-nasal-spray-vaccine-against-covid-19-might-do-even-better-than-a-shot https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20200605/covid-19-vaccine-will-probably-require-two-doses
September 1, 20206 yr I hope the good news is true. Just be aware that a successful vaccine developed this fast is abnormal, and apparently has never been done before (just referencing what I’ve heard epidemiologists say; I have no expertise in this). When they sidestep the usual processes for drug approval for this, as I’m sure they will, I hope they’ll still be able to track and study effectiveness as they would normally do with subjects in a controlled study.

September 1, 20206 yr Active Members Really fascinating article, and it tracks with the information scientists have been learning about the disease over time. Thanks for sharing it!

September 5, 20206 yr Active Members FORGET a vaccine for awhile, even if it becomes available so quickly, can you trust it ? I'll just keep doing this ALONE at home until it is safe to "partner-up" again ! Edited September 5, 20206 yr by Suckrates
