"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
SC, what about posts on msg threads from other sites? Does fair usage apply?

The Wall Street Journal yesterday had a couple of articles looking like we will get a vaccine earlier than original estimates. Some companies have had setbacks but enough keep trying that I think we will see a working vaccine before the year is up. Human testing is starting.

Wow, and I thought I was cynical. How about this? A vaccine would allow him to open back up his hotels and resorts. So I doubt President Trump really cares where it comes from, Israel, the UK, America, even Niger.
Ever changing moods? After doing some reading last night, I am getting more skeptical of ever seeing a good Covid-19 vaccine. Coronas are hard to develop vaccines for. One study had the vaccinated animals still getting infected with the Covid. And even worse, some of the previously infected Enterprise sailors returned to duty after quarantine and recovery and got re-infected!
Could we see a future where Covid-19 never goes away, just like the common cold, increases and decreases in intensity?

Exactly. There won’t be a vaccine. There is a therapeutic that I was reading about in San Diego that they claim worked 100% of the time. I’ll see if I can find it again. It worked using a specific antibody that didn’t allow the virus to attach itself.
