I have a prediction as far as any future vaccine: it will be costly, and COVID-19 will suddenly be discovered “unstable” in order to create the ongoing revenue stream that they love so much. There was a time not all that long ago when I would have sneered at people ranting about “big pharma” because they were obviously leftists and anti-business to the core. However, since the advent of Obamacare and the pharmaceutical industry jumping in bed with the permanent governing class, the shoe is completely on the other foot. Suspicion is warranted. A quick, simple and cheap treatment for COVID-19 can’t be allowed in the minds of these people. It’s a threat to their little fiefdoms and it’s a threat to a tremendous amount of money coming in annually, to the tune of billions.
It’s also about fear. People are far more willing to be scared of something that is seen as either incurable.
