> until there's a vaccine

Why do people think we're getting some magic vaccine? Gavi/Gates have pushed this "18 months" bullshit, where they're developing some magical vaccine for a family of viruses that's never had a vaccine before, and every previous attempt has been met with either bad immunopathic responses or immune enhancement syndrome[0].

Vaccines takes decades to develop safely, and the techniques being proposed now have never led to a vaccine that made it through clinical trials before.

There is no vaccine coming in any reasonable amount of time. The 100+ companies are take a lot of WHO/government money, and who knows if they'll actually produce anything.

Safe vaccines for new families of viruses take a decade. There is still no vaccine for retroviruses (herpes, HIV, etc.) It's straight up Gates pipe dream to think a safe vaccine for this can be made in a year.
