“sold out” Good grief!

Hmmm.
Seems it would be profitable to develop coronavirus vaccines for animals and have them ‘on the shelf’ for the expensive trials needed for human use. Corona virus being zoonotic.
And an emergency could make the testing less expensive.

It is made in China (of course).

I think all treatments need to be examined. Based on initial findings, the second wave appears to be far more deadly (reinfection).

This is starting to remind me of the Spanish Flu.

established animal vets would probably have a small supply so that would be accessible. There’s the shelf life, tho.

Looking at that SoCal vaccine company that did sars, the experimental ebola and mers, they were able to ‘vaccine design’ this new virus they said in 3 hours because the new sars is similar to the old sars. So, they’ve sort of proved, sure, we can sometimes build on the vaccines we already have and maybe save months. I think I read that company is going human trials next month and s/b ready by June? Or maybe it was human trials by June?
