Seventeen years after the severe acute respiratory syndrome (Sars) outbreak and seven years since the first Middle East respiratory syndrome (Mers) case, there is still no coronavirus vaccine despite dozens of attempts to develop them.
There was no vaccine for Sars or Mers. Will there be one this time?
Why would I put something in my body that some scientists had to guess if it’s going to be the right strain or not ? The “ flu shot does nothing if they miss that guess .
The needle part was tongue in cheek. But I sincerely hope I don't have needles as part of my daily life, either.I sincerely hope you never become diabetic! Needles are a part of my everyday life! I once felt as you do about needles.
What kind of vaccine are y'all talking about? You can be vaccinated against measles, mumps, polio, ect that is a life long immunity. You can't be vaccinated against the flu. You can get a flu shot but honestly those seem like 50/50 they may work. Every year there are several people I know that get a flu shot and still get the flu.
I don't think any Covid-19 vaccination is going to be a permanent immunity. I thought it would be like a flu shot.
Likely , possibly , maybe , we think , could ... is that article from The WHO , CDC or FDA ? Nobody knows anything and I’m not going to be a lab rat . All I heard was a s here Hong about one of the safest drugs on the market that’s been around for decades. Now I’m hearing people already willing to line up to get that new “ vaccine “ . Sheeple are funny .
Listen bro, if you don't want to take it - I'll support your argument for you personal choice, dumb as I may believe it to be. I've always said I'm a big fan of a thinning of the heard.
I will gladly take it. Frankly I’ve never understood why people don’t get flu shots but to each his own. Some of the vaccine myths are crazy though.
Because the side effects are minimal, more often than not they get it right and at minimum it will mitigate symptoms if you do get the flu. Study after study shows it greatly reduces hospital stays.Why would I put something in my body that some scientists had to guess if it’s going to be the right strain or not ? The “ flu shot “does nothing if they miss that guess .
You're comparing decades old vaccines to a brand new unproven small study vaccine.I don't think it's "understandable at all why nobody would want it" at all. Would you be OK with people not vaccinating their kids and sending them to school with your unvaccinated kids? Can you elaborate on your statement on why its "understandable"? Are you a anti-vaxer that believes vaccines cause autism?
Polio, Rotavirus, HIB, Measles, Rubella, Mumps, Tetanus, Hepatitis, Whooping Cough, Diphtheria and Pertussis have all been eradicated or severely limited in infection rates since they were introduced.
It's bewildering that anyone would not want a vaccine that could possibly prevent them from death. Given the "why not try it" hullabaloo about the hydroxyquinoline here last week by the same crowd, I can't help but be puzzeled by the irony.
A vaccine from a deadly virus, yes please.
At what point do you think you’ll catch on that I just enjoy jerking your chain around and watching you bark and growl ?
