...Effective? How about SAFE?

100% safety does not exist in any biological system

The question is always with relative risk vs benefit, understanding both sides of that equation is fraught with complexity, selective reporting, and even “observer bias” is a real problem

It’s an RNA virus. No effective vaccine has ever been found against one, at best only partial responders chasing the last mutations

I always get flu shots (4x strength for moi). Even if it's a near miss, partial immunity can shorten the duration and lower the severity of the icky influenza.

That said, I have no interest in a corona virus immunization. I worry more about delayed "issues" from such an experimental immunization than the consequences of the disease.

BTW, this is not medical advice, however I believe that zinc and vitamin D just might be our best little friends in the china virus battle.

SSRNA viruses just randomly mutate, and some of the mutations work around whatever vaccine is attempted, subsequently self selecting by surviving, and propagates merrily away.

One of nature's many ways of thinning the herd and strengthening the survivors.

China doesn't get a bounty on each reported COVID-19 death, New York does...

False reporting should be a felony and appropriately punished.

This is a ridiculous statement. He could have said the only solution for cancer is a vaccine. These people are in a dream world.

Sort of like a lioness culling the slowest members of a herd of zebras

Sweden will benefit from being the first country in the world to gain herd immunity.

Of all the very many strange decisions, that is the most bizarre of all.....the only answer I can think of is Gates has bought everyone involved...he has sure bought everyone needed in the UK.

The main difference is cancer is NOT contagious.

"BoJo, quit buying into the globalist bullschitt."

You are agreeing with him that a vaccine may not be found. So why are you calling it globalist bs?

It doesn't matter. It kills a lot of people. This entire issue is political not medical. Politicians don't care if you or I die. It is only important if our death contributes to their power.

Are they really that stupid? Take vitamin D and cut the death rate of Covid-19! Do not wait for the vaccine!

Just a side note, but vitamin D and Zinc is your best friend in any influenza battle. Worked for me for 30 years. Never had a flu since cell I started paying attention to my D levels. When I get outside I stop taking it, and intermittently take it when I dont.

Vitamin D is like a gas tank, takes a while to fill it and longer to empty. Your body can store a huge ammount.

Because it is — meaning, the idea of a worldwide (and mandatory) vaccine. Not really convinced such a vaccine would be the Mark of the Beast, but anything with the word “mandatory” associated with it is, by its very nature, globalist.
