More and more reports from countries talking about potential vaccines. Tests appear to have worked on Chimps and human testing is underway. 

So it is looking promising...  

  1. China claims to be working on 3 different possible vaccines- all of which would be ready by October. 
  2. UK has the University of Oxford saying that they could have the vaccine ready by September- and Imperial college are also saying they will have one ready for November.
  3. US are testing lots of options, with one private company looking like the favourites to release a possible vaccine in October. 
  4. Italy claimed they could have one near the end of the year. 

Many are following different approaches so the idea is that the best ones will be developed further. Some may suit older or younger patients. Some better for prevention than cures, others better as a treatment to help sick patients build up immunity. 

In the UK the biggest pharma company has started production of the Oxford vaccine assuming it will work- and write it off if it does not work. 

Saw this UK pharma is in talks with merging with the American company that is also developing a vaccine. 

Will be interesting to see how it is distributed.

The UK government already has an order for 100 million dosages- more than the 65 Million population. The US also has a backorder for over a billion dollars. How would the EU feel about this? If the EU gets the thrid bite who is next? What about NATO? It could turn in as a free for all. Even auction-based with the highest bidder - like what happened with PPE.   

WHO is talking about equal distribution across the world - but the country where it is invented surely have to get the first preference- before distributing across the globe. 

If China invents the best cure - will they give the world this for free given they gave Corona to everyone.

Should you be forced to accept the vaccine?

"Should you be forced to accept the vaccine?"

Yep, that is the real question

I wonder what would happen if they said that if you refuse to take the vaccine, you are confined to certain confinement conditions.....

The craziness goes on.  Now CNN is campaigning that early use of any vaccine must not be allowed since there may be some imaginary health problems associated with it. 

It sounds like the Chinese owned CNN is now preparing for a  new election campaign based on the virus.   They feel the end is coming for the Virus campaign and they must find a new one.  Incidentally CNN is owned by Warner and Warner's majority shareholder is a Chinese Billionaire.

By the way I love the above description as fitting of you.  I am very liberal in my daily life and you are not.   I help people when help is needed and has done I for thousands of people throughout my career.   So how can I hate anybody on the grounds you stated, Fact is I am also accused of having been an ANC member - a fact that I freely admitted as well as that I was  Trustee of the Albert Luthuli Trust - where is my obsessive hatred?

Let me be quite frank - the only things I hate is criminality, corruption, lies and deceit.  That is what the Democratic Party and their communist allies are showing nowadays.   So you are welcome to belief what you want - but please shy away from Democratic dishonesty and criminality.

If the vaccine is safe, why would anyone not want to take it?  Not only would this be reducing risk to yourself, but it would prevent one giving the virus to anyone who has not had the opportunity to take the vaccine yet. 
It all seems rational except for the religious conspiracists .

Let me tell you a secret in a few months time the USA will not need a vaccine for the Wuhan Virus and many other counties as well. It's going away from all accounts. 

Besides you have the very effective and cheap Hydroxychloroquine cocktail. 

No I don't want any vaccine eugenicist Bill Gates is involved in. 

How hilarious to see the fake studies done on Hydroxychloroquine being debunked and their results withdrawn and the little company who did the study being shown to be complete and utter charlatans. 

Wonder if our resident buffoon Redrooi knows WHO is now saying it's extremely difficult to catch the Wuhan Virus from asymptomatic people.

Poor Redrooi is dismayed at how the Wuhan Virus BS is falling apart, dismayed at how the USA economy is rebounding, an d dismayed how demorats are scared the defunding of cops issue will sink them.

"Well, you might be a paranoid, far-right wing conspiracy theorist who thinks that the vaccine is actually Bill Gates trying to take over your tiny little brain."

...or you might be of the opinion that herd immunity will sort the virus out without the need to force anyone to do anything. As it has done with countless viruses in the past. The majority of which went entirely extinct on their own.

By default, this would be the preferred option, in part because there is no way to know what long term side effects are until a long time has passed. IE the most risk-averse strategy. 

I hear being risk-averse when it comes to health is a rather prudent and beneficial way to conduct business. Rumours perhaps.

But hey, let's not allow logic to creep in through the cracks of the authoritarian mindset.

Ah yes, the herd immunity strategy that worked so well for Sweden. 
They currently have 39.57 deaths per 100 000 residents while neigbouring Norway and Finland (who had lockdowns) have less than 6 deaths per 100 000 residents. 
The Swedish Prime Minister has recently admitted that their strategy has been a disaster while the State epidemiologist has said he'd do things differently if they had the same disease knowing what they know now . . . that's the strategy that Plumchum would choose above a tested and trusted vaccine?

LMAO!

The UK initially tried herd immunity.
3 weeks later the UK prime minister lay in intensive care fighting for his life. 
The UK has a population of about 60 million. Over 40 thousand have died, but some estimates are at 60 thousand. 
To develop herd immunity it would require at least 1% of the population in deaths
If there was no lockdown - it could have been triple or more deaths already. Had there been a vaccine, there would have been no deaths. 
It is funny if one of the anti-vaxer's were on their death bed - they would gladly have everyone take a vaccine sooner - if it could save their one measly life. 
The Church leaders will probably take the vaccine right away, while telling all their gullible followers to not take it...

Most people have a big problem with buying Chinese products...the cheap-good-for-nothing-rubbish.

Yes I know that it's BS and that China has a very sophisticated technological capability, but there is issues with quality control. 

Most people don't realize that lots of medical supplies, medicine and vaccines are also made in China.

I definitely don't want to put a rush job vac from China or anywhere else in my or my family's bodies...and forcing people to take it? What about the unintended long term effects? "I am Legend" anyone?

Good old RooiCommie, being as disingenuous as ever.

Perhaps I should ask EXACTLY which parts of their strategy Sweden were referring to?

Sweden are still saying that countries delaying herd immunity are not stopping deaths. They're just pushing them out into the future.

And they are still, can't correctly saying that all countries will experience similar death rates, but those that adopt the Swedish policy will suffer much less economic consequences.

But Shark, you are the day's winner with your 3 week herd immunity. That may be the most ridiculous thing I've ever read on here.

Somehow I suspect the anti-vac crew would change their minds if they see Coronavirus first hand.
No one wants to take some random vaccine that could have unknown side effects.
UK medical practitioners have been partaking in human trials themselves as volunteers, and thousands of the public have volunteered to trial the vaccine. 
Heroes if they can contribute to getting a vaccine working... First world science and reason vs happy-clappy nonsense. 
The anti-vax crew are just concerned about themselves, and their religious conspiracies. Third world mentality - but happy for handouts if they actually need a cure at some point themselves.

So have we come up with an effective vaccine for the flu? Nope every year there is a degree of effectiveness....but many people get the flu despite getting the vaccine. What saves us is our bodies recognizing and dealing with the threat....a degree of immunity.


We have zero immunity to the Wuhan virus. If our success with vaccines parallel our experience with flu we will need natural immunity. 


The fact that Sweden has higher cases is consistent with building immunity ie not putting all their eggs in the vaccine basket. That strategy will always look bad in comparison in the early days.....so Sweden looks more like France, Netherlands, Italy, Spain.....than Denmark or Norway.


That has been exaggerated by Sweden’s failure to protect it’s nursing homes where more than half their deaths occurred. Florida has shown these deaths can almost be eliminated.

 If an effective vaccine or a treatment is found....avoiding the virus is the best strategy. If they aren’t found countries which build rapid immunity in those not at risk will be in better shape economically and in terms of long term deaths.

@Clappie Mike,
Why is it that 99.99999% of anyone who believes Bill Gates wants to reduce the world population to 500 million is a Christian happy-clappy?  That his vaccines are actually designed to kill people...
If you met someone and they say that Bill Gates wants to murder most of the world population- you can make the assumption that they are a religious happy-clappy. 
Not all religious people think this - but many do. And they are the ones that think Bill Gates wants to murder most of the human race. 
This is just one example.  It is so easy to spot a happy Clappy by their conspiracy nonsense. 
It is a real-world with real problems and people are trying to solve this without the Easter Bunny and Fairy Tales. Just a barrier to progression.

Whenever a person is involved with George Soros and Bill Gates is - it means such a person is in alliance with Communist China and the World Governing Dictatorship Soros is striving for.   Bill  Gates is an accomplice of Soros and should be watched carefully after stating that the ideal world population should be 500 million people.

We know that stronger International Organizations mean - total paralysis.   You quote Bill Gates as an example.  Gates is nots in some cases.   He wants a world population of 500 million as ideal.  The vaccines he uses had some nasty consequences ibn countries like infertility and his operations in some country has been stopped because if side-effects,  

The fact is that Dr Fauci is not innocent as well.  He is in cahoots with Gates and Soros and illegally sent money to find operations in the Wuhan Laboratory and then says in two years time their would be another pandemic,

It's like choosing to fly to Durban instead of driving and then complaining that you're in the air.

I wonder, in Sharks version of a push for herd immunity, what do the numbers look like.

We already know that 3 weeks is the upper limit of his test time for herd immunity. 

I'm guessing that by day 10, both infections and death rates must be in  steep decline and by day 21 Boris Johnson should be French kissing strangers at a rave in Brixton.

Sound about right, VisKop?

What I said about Bill Gates, Soros and Communist China is real.   Gates is interested in making money from vaccines produced in Companies - some in China  and he is pressing Governments to buy vaccines,   The end result is he is getting wealthier by doing it,  His won contribution is small compared to the profits he made out of vaccines,  

There are a number of countries who encountered serious diseases caused by vaccines supplied by his factories, and that is why I said he is to be watched carefully, especially since he made a remark about  500 million  is the ideal world population.

Gates is a business mogul that loves to monopolise the market. He is no saint.
Before he retired as CEO of Microsoft he was in court every month with various patent infringement lawsuits. 

There are allegations that he is taking medical research that is in the public domain- free. Then he improves it and registers it as a trademark so he can sell it. 

He did the same in the IT industry by copying other peoples products and then improving upon them or offering them for free as part of Windows so he could dominate the platform market. 

And he appears to have shares in companies that are giving The Gates foundations donations. 

However, he is not trying to kill the world with a vaccine. That is what you were talking about.
