How about we just write them a really big check and get this over with?

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

I bet he does.

[DugwayDuke]

Sounds like a future profit center.

[lightman]

It will be as common as the common cold (remember that critter?)

[Jamestown1630]

How’s that different from the constantly mutating seasonal ‘flu?

[Segovia]

then what the hell are they marketing a vaccine for?

[BenLurkin]

The shttheads behind the lockdowns did a shttload of harm for no purpose (other than, perhaps, to do harm)

[Fledermaus]

Of course, like the flu or colds. It’s a minor bug. Spray Lysol.

And don’t start the left wing lies Fearbros.

[jacknhoo]

One third of mankind...could it be. It’s been foretold in scripture. Could be, doesn’t everyone paying attention have that thought?

[BipolarBob]

Because there’s more mandated money for this one.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Yeah its called the FLU..been around forever, you live with it, no biggie, you dont stop living because of it

[Honorary Serb]

Well, flu is still around. So is measles, pertussis, chickenpox etc. Only smallpox is gone.

But with the help of vaccines and herd immunity, we’ve been doing just fine—wituout masks, social distancing, lockdowns, etc.

We can beat covid, too—and open up again!!!!

[BipolarBob]

One third of mankind...could it be. It’s been foretold in scripture. Could be, doesn’t everyone paying attention have that thought?

it's never far away from my thoughts.

[Ezekiel]

We’ve seen how it comes with masks. And that the sages say, “Purim is forever.”

And besides, how many of those hand sanitizer brands incorporate some form of “Pur” in their names.

Nothing is coincidence.

[patriot torch]

Was this an excerpt from the onion or the dnc platform?

[NWFree]

Translation: We’re going to be $ticking it to you for a long time to come. Roll up your sleeve again and again.

[patriot torch]

Strange how all these plagues seemed to have followed the third world conveys over our borders

[Magic Fingers]

“then what the hell are they marketing a vaccine for?”

It’s marketed as something to build immunity to the virus, not something that will eliminate it from the environment.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

The CEO of Covid-19 vaccine maker Moderna warned Wednesday that the coronavirus that has brought world economies to a standstill and overwhelmed hospitals will be around “forever.”

Well, yes - the virus isn't going to go away. But with vaccines, it will be even less important than it is now. If only the idiot politicians who reacted hysterically to the virus could be dealt with as easily as the virus itself.
