Really? We are wasting time and money to produce a vaccine for a virus with a 99% survival rate without it? Oh right...fearmongering....
The flu has a better survival rate and we have vaccines for that. Chicken pox and shingles have a much lower death rate and we have vaccines for them too. So why not?
That being said, there is new news about the old MMR vaccine providing covid 19 protection. In fact I donated a blood sample yesterday for a medical study as a covid 19 survivor with antibodies. Apparently the Rubella virus has many similar surface characteristics with the covid 19 virus.
I would be that if the MMR pans out, it is too soon to say, if more people would go for that since it has a long term safety record?
I'm all for that. But it must be done correctly. There hasn't been a vaccine for a coronavirus ever developed, and the closest one, the flu vaccine, isn't even very effective and has injured millions of people.
This vaccine should be properly vetted and tested before it's put to market. I don't like the idea of putting out a vaccine in less than a year and then having people be guinea pigs. Especially since an RNA vaccine hasn't ever been done before and it seems like this one will be RNA based. Very very dangerous stuff. This isn't your basic tetanus or hepatitis vaccine.
I said maybe because I would need to read the side effects before deciding for sure...I would most likely get it if the results were excellent and side effects minimal.

You like the idea of killing people who disagree with you, huh?
And the squiggly red line is your friend. It's "measles". (Folks act like it costs them money to use the spell check feature! Hell, you don't even have to click the damn thing to make it work! It's automatic!)
Google the word sarcasm.
I find it interesting you are ignoring that the antivaxxer movement actually does kill people.
