All it would take is one mutation and it could be an actual pandemic.
That's exactly why researchers here already have a vaccine that works on cells, but it needs to be thoroughly tested on live subjects, over and over and, later on, on humans. They claimed it would take over a year to make sure it's safe. They can't take the risk to release a vaccine that can fail and get the virus to mutate to a more dangerous/aggressive form. That would be catastrophic.
Yeah things in the pharmaceutical world run very slow. It can take years to get a drug to market. It almost always does. I'm not concerned about a vaccine causing that government wouldn't let something that hasn't hit human trials for at least months hit the market unless thing become catastrophic and at that point what does it matter?
And if we are still here, there's that massive asteroid heading toward us (2028 and 2038).
I'd rather die eating popcorn watching it coming than from a supervirus.
Yeah well we may not have that choice. Humanity apparently thinks is a fantastic idea to fuck the dna/rna of viruses and I think personally that is kind of the stupidest thing we could do.
I can't make popcorn I have 3 kids to protect from this shit. They deserve to have a life like we have. If I have to go out fine. They shouldn't
