Flu vaccines are based on guesses of what viruses are going to be prominent.

Sometimes they’re wrong. There are so many flu strains that it’s easy to get wrong.

This vaccine should be based purely on this strain of coronavirus.

I’m amazed *anyone* would say they would take a hypothetical vaccine they know nothing about.

What is especially concerning is that this isn't a vaccine in the traditional sense, using a dead virus to build immunity, that they want. Based on this article (Moderna’s mRNA vaccine reaches its final phase. Here's how it works); it clearly states, "mRNA vaccines take a novel approach that has never been licensed for human use."

I don't even get a flu vaccine; I'm certainly not getting this one.

Corona viruses mutate. The immunization today is worth less next year. Just like the flu vaccine. Good for about 1 in every 4 years. Big deal.

“get your immunity and be done with it.”

You assume it works and continues to work as the virus mutates. You don’t much about viruses and vaccines.

“However, the flip side is dont bitch about lockdowns and loss of freedom.”

These lockdowns are political, not medical.

Exactly. If their vaccine works, why are people who want to take the vaccine so opposed to those that don’t?

Newer studies show the black community is least likely to accept a vaccine. A new poll backs that up... here’s some reasons why:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2020/04/19/coronavirus-vaccine-black-americans-prevention/5146777002/

‘Tuskegee always looms in our minds’: Some fear black Americans, hardest hit by coronavirus, may not get vaccine

from link:

African Americans, who are being infected and killed by COVID-19 at a much higher rate than whites, are 40% less likely to get flu shots,a study out last year showed, and some fear they will be reluctant to get the coronavirus vaccine when one is released. A historical distrust of the health care system, which has far fewer physicians of color and a record of discrimination and mistreatment, gets much of the blame, experts said.

“For African Americans of a certain age group, Tuskegee always looms in our minds,” Graham said.

My main doctor and I have already had this discussion. I won’t be first in line.

Or second. Or third.

As he said, we can wait until we see how many bodies drop in the first few years.

Damned shame. I’m older, am immunosuppressed, with comorbidities. I do what I can to avoid the flu, too, and any respiratory illnesses.

Do we know if there is a lower ‘false-positive’ result among those and the PCR test?

“And take the mask and shove it.”

On that we 100% agree.

I don't even get a flu vaccine; I'm certainly not getting this one.

Why would anyone get a DANGEROUS vaccine when the dreaded virus is easily cured?

I waited until I lost my senses of smell and taste before I drove TWO HOURS to see a KNOWLEDGEABLE DOCTOR. As long as you start the drug treatment CURE in the first five days of symptoms, it will CURE in almost all cases. For those from Loma Linda, that means almost 100% are CURED!

Which brings up the point of WHY the criminal conspirators like Fauci are lying to hide the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine +Zinc. To FAST TRACK vaccines and drugs, there cannot be any effective drugs. Therefore, Fauci and his criminal band of murderers are working overtime to hide that HCQ+Zn is not only effective, it is VERY EFFECIVE if given early.

To STOP the scamdemic, the only things that have to be done is for the public to know after 1st symptoms, you have FIVE days to be treated. And then the Doctors have to know that withholding HCQ+Zn from treatment will get your medical license pulled and open the Doctor to civil suites that would even scare Blumberg.

All Donald Trump has to do is show documentation that HCQ+Zn is effective. Dr Zelenko has quit his NY practice and is committed to publish his results (2200 COVID infected treated, TWO DIED). Imagine the look on Fauci's and scarf lady's face when credible documentation is published that shows HCQ+Zn is a home run. And then POTUS fires every one of the HCQ conspirators and puts Dr Gold into Fauci's position.

HCQ+Zn could be entirely OVER THE COUNTER by October, just in time for the election and just in time to OUTLAW all of the mask edicts.

It’s a matter of just following the money. HQC+Azithromycin+Zinc is around $30 or less to treat a patient. Remdesivir is $2,300 or more depending on what insurer coverage is used.
