Re: What happens if a coronavirus vaccine is never developed? It has happened before

Whether or not there is a vaccine, there are therapeutics to treat the symptoms and shorten the recovery time.

Well that is real negative thinking. Just stop.

Not good for you or for any one else.


Think positive, no matter how hard that may be right now.

This is hard on everyone. It is effecting us all emotionally.

 

Stay positive. We will get thru this.

Wow, ONE nursing home...out of how many across the country?  And while we're at it, who are these doctors you speak of?


There is no "primary treatment" nor doctors "screaming" as you very well know @Blahblahvampemer. You have yet to come back to answer any because you know your posts are just meant to incite.

This is so not needed. There is no time or place for any of it, especially now.

Posters are not stupid you know so give up your posts created to insure

confusion and anger, and create something worthwhile to someone, anyone.

I know.

 

Perhaps you haven't read about the overreaction of the immune system to COVID-19.  Have you read about a cytokine storm?

 

Things are not as simple as you might think.

Re: What happens if a coronavirus vaccine is never developed? It has happened before

There are way too many "experts" out there if you ask me.  I'm picking only 2 or 3.  Some of these so-called experts on tv (and all these talk shows) are just speculating all day long.  Just give me the data from someone who has actually seen the data!

My guide is Dr Fauci. He tells it like it is, even while some try to muzzle him. He said, first of all, that those states opening up too soon will see a second round of the virus by next month. He also said he was optimistic about the discovery of a vaccine because of the nature of the virus. I had a year of college biology a thousand years ago so my understanding is limited but I do believe what the doctor says. He never promises anything, as politicians often do. He tells the truth, as does my governor. Those are the two people I listen to most.


I'm in one of the states that is doing a slow opening.  

 

I'm wondering if there isn't going to be a second round due to this mask wearing.  All this on and off of masks without hands being washed all the time or masks being washed and touching ones face more has to lead to more problems.

@RoughDraft, these types of statements remind me of the guy who was ranting and raving (I saw it shared on FB) about how mad he was because "a doctor" in CA was very effectively treating patients with quinine and a Z-pack.  I want to think he himself claimed to be a doctor but I cannot remember.  I remember him screaming and carrying on about why this wasn't well known and why this treatment wasn't being talked about.  He then went on to talk about how all we needed to do was buy and drink tonic water, etc.

 

It was so ridiculous.  I went to look up who the unnamed doctor was and I did find his name but he was treating people with hydroxycloroquine and a Z-Pack, not quinine found in tonic water.  This is the kind of idiocy that has been being spread around.

Also, it appears that a lot more people have been exposed and never even developed symptoms according to a couple of studies.  To me, that's a good thing, and I have always thought it good to exercise our immune systems.

@Icegoddess   Totally different. 


@proudlyfromNJ, it's amazing that we have come to the point at which we have to encounter such foolishness, such a frightening perversion of our age-old slogans meant actually to unite us, not turn us into anti-facts/science provocateurs.
