Even if we have one (coronavirus vaccine) right now and plenty of doses to distribute, it won’t matter.

The fear is the speed of virus mutation, esp. jumping from person to person. Depending on how the vaccine is being developed, I wonder how effective it would be.

Or maybe the lethality and infectiveness of the virus won’t be as high as the fearmongers feared, and nature will take care of the current coronavirus strain, like previously SARS or MERS.

For perspective, there are 5 KNOWN cases of this latest coronavirus strain that we have discovered in the USA.

In 2017-2018, 80,000 people died of the flu in the USA !!
