You're insane

Sometimes it helps to read all the way to the end of an article,

“ Although the design and production of the prospective vaccine was incredibly fast, evaluation of it will take considerable time. All of the participants will be followed for 12 months after the second vaccination to collect the data researchers initially need to figure out whether it is safe and effective.”

How many times, across how many threads are you going to say this exact wrong thing?

cut and paste - cut and paste - cut and paste ... your message becomes watered down

Yep and now you look off balance.

this is for it to be officially proclaimed effective. if the results seem promising on the ground people will line up for it and nobody will stop them.

I was just going back through the original mega Corona thread. Jeez, you guys nailed this. What I want to know is if DCUM knew so early what a serious problem we had on our hands, why didn't the experts? SMH

Go back to this one asking about why so little outcry about lack of testing--started and ended on March 5--due, I guess, to lack of outrage. Full disclosure, I did not start this thread but contributed a number of posts to it.

I am now seeing a lot of revisionism going on from numerous posters who say anyone could have seen this coming, we should have been testing all along, etc., etc. Where were all these insightful people back then? (And it wasn't that long ago...)

This vaccine won't be available for 18 month to 2 years at a bare minimum. The usual timeline is 5+ years. The FDA is not going to skirt the safety issues and they will monitor those getting the vaccine now for a full year.

I was one of the people posting what would happen when others were trying to minimize the whole thing. They called me names and said I was dramatizing and trying to scare people. They said I was “getting off” on wanting people to die. All I wanted was to make people aware.

It’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better. I’m glad we are taking steps to slow the spread now. If we had done even a little a month ago we would be in a better place now but it’s still a lot better than waiting until the hospitals are completely saturated like everyone else is doing.

I also predicted the economy collapse including car sales. In another month you’ll be able to get some sweet no interest car loans if you’re in need. Just because everything is bad right now doesn’t mean people still don’t need to buy cars. I’d say, even if you were thinking about getting one in a year, just get it in the next few months when all the manufacturers put out those no interest loans.

The government is throwing money at this but it’s just not going to work. People aren’t going to fly, rent hotel rooms, or go to casinos so either they need to let some of these companies fail and get bought out by survivors or they are going to have to bail them out multiple times. The cruise ship industry is going to be on hard times for a long time after this. They’re going to need to shrink because I have a feeling they will have a permanent drop in demand even after this is all over.

It’s important to remember, this will come to an end. Next year (if we are super lucky the end of this year but it would need to be a miracle) we will have a vaccine and everything will go back to normal. I don’t know what they will do with all the hundreds of thousands of spare ventilators they’ll make for this outbreak though. Hopefully someone is trying to figure that out because we don’t have enough for the crisis but we will have too many afterwards.
