Members tassojunior Posted August 1, 2020 Members Posted August 1, 2020 at least in Russia: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-53621708 There are several promising vaccines in stage III now or soon. Quote

Members hornydude4sxxx Posted August 20, 2020 Members Posted August 20, 2020 Interesting. Thanks for sharing. Fingers crossed there is a legitimate vaccine by early fall to avoid a second wave. tassojunior 1 Quote

Members tassojunior Posted August 31, 2020 Author Members Posted August 31, 2020 While I was getting my flu shot at Kaiser last week a nurse mentioned "they" were paying $700 to be in the stage III trials. hmmm. Unfortunately the vaccine is two shots a month apart but it seems very safe, very effective and may be better as a nasal spray eventually. (Let's hope it's more effective than the flu shot).The US government has 300 million doses paid for being made now and the EU has 500 million. https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/experimental-coronavirus-vaccine-safe-produces-immune-response https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2020/08/28/906797539/what-a-nasal-spray-vaccine-against-covid-19-might-do-even-better-than-a-shot https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20200605/covid-19-vaccine-will-probably-require-two-doses Quote
Rtphx Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 I hope the good news is true. Just be aware that a successful vaccine developed this fast is abnormal, and apparently has never been done before (just referencing what I’ve heard epidemiologists say; I have no expertise in this). When they sidestep the usual processes for drug approval for this, as I’m sure they will, I hope they’ll still be able to track and study effectiveness as they would normally do with subjects in a controlled study. tassojunior 1 Quote

Members Suckrates Posted September 5, 2020 Members Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) FORGET a vaccine for awhile, even if it becomes available so quickly, can you trust it ? I'll just keep doing this ALONE at home until it is safe to "partner-up" again ! Edited September 5, 2020 by Suckrates Quote
