Reading this, looks like the 18 month to full production and out where it needs to be is still most likely. They said 16 weeks from when they started to human trials.

So that means they started this at least 16 weeks ago if they are in human trials. Fall would be getting to 9 or 10 months ~IF~ everything goes as they think it will. Then weeks to months to get production up and running and the vaccine out to where it needs to go. Again if everything goes as planned. So it looks like 18 months is still close to the window and still lightning speed.

Yup. I thought it was a pretty good article from knowledgeable folks.

Right. Because that’ll be sure to get them to stop having things like open-air markets where animals mix with people.

@Cynic

You are just lashing out in anger because you have been wrong at every step of this crisis.

At least we are closing above 26k still on the DOW

Doing the backward math they started sequncing in November 2019. Wasn’t until January that WHO made an serious declarations on it.

No politics here … thanks for the fear mongering “mini mike” … below is photo not a link. Too disgusting a read.

How is that fear mongering?

My sister in law is originally from china, she convinced me almost 3 months ago to review my emergency preparation plan which I was thankful for.

Anyways I asked her about these open air markets and all the weird stuff that is consumed, her answer was pretty poignant, “have you ever truly been hungry before?”

China has alot of problems they need to sort out still.

Any victim of violence is bad.

But a Trump supporter can take off their hat. Asian Americans can’t take off their race.

Please consider taking down your 2nd sentence.

Yep. And more than a month later Trump still wasn’t taking it seriously

[Sunovagun]

Thousands will die and thousands more will be seriously injured in car crashes. Have a nice drive home.

Now do you understand?

The 1st Amendment gives us freedom from government retribution as a result of our speech. Nothing more.

Don’t discount that they also said they hope to be able to cut the time in half from their last effort.

[Snow96]

And that’s the 16 weeks to trials. Now if the orther article is right and they expect it to be ready for production in the fall. Well what is fall? Sep/Oct/Nov. So they are right about the 1 year mark with several months to getting production up and running.

If someone doesn’t think that is lightning speed in the medical world has lived in a cave the last 20 or 30 years.

No. No I don’t.

I don’t see how saying that this is a low dose drug only is fear mongering.

[Sunovagun]

If that’s what you got from that headline so be it.

What I got from the headline is that the drug that is touted by Donald Trump and Elon Musk can kill at low doses.

How is that fear mongering?

Seems like good information to have.

[CanadianJudo]

do you have a 10% chance of dying in a car if your over 80?

[Snow96]

@ImRightYoureWrong

Yep. And more than a month later Trump still wasn’t taking it seriously

WHO didn’t declar a pandemic until March 11.

[Sunovagun]

Whatever works for you is ok by me

The President said he always knew it was going to be a pandemic.

If he knew, then why didn’t he prepare in February?
