This. I’m so hopeful we get a vaccine or that remdesivir turns out to eradicate in early onset usage AND becomes available in quantities sufficient to use it for that. I’d love for that to happen this summer. Who wouldn’t? But the odds of the latter happening this summer are better than the odds of the former and the odds of the latter happening this summer are low.
Yeah, but you know what? People often believe what they read on forums...regardless of whether it's posted by an expert or someone in the know.
I don’t know. I’ve been following these threads for quite some time and it seems the people who post here are pretty good at being able to think for themselves.
Good question -- the guy heading it was listed as a venture capitalist, you know -- the people who put risk money in in the hope of making a financial killing. Tells you all you need to know about a) the risk level of this coming off, and b) the amount of money the drug companies and their investors think they are going to be making if it works.
They are, but this is a public forum that anyone can read.
I did my own yesterday, cheaply. And guess what I didn't have to wear a mask or sit less than 6 feet away from anyone, so no workers were infected in the process (remember the old cowboy films where they had to put a disclosure at the end that stated "no animals were hurt in the filming of this production). There is nothing essential, vital, necessary or urgent about a haircut when you have a pair of scissors and a mirror at home.I got one today!
Legally...
I've been cutting my own for the last 10 years. I think I've saved a few thousand dollars.
There is precedent of posters being instructed to stop posted information that is not true.
It doesn’t mean they actually WILL reopen but next week. But judging based on how much the south doesn’t care about quarantine? I wouldnt Doubt it.
Sorry, I was saying the opposite. Although Ebola is a terrible disease and very deadly there wasn’t a lot of money to be made vaccinating poor people. The researchers had to rely on charity and/or money from various nations to work on the problem. With this virus every day/week/month without a vaccine costs the world economy billions. There’s every incentive to knock it out quickly.
I didn’t say they couldn’t post - they surely have a right to do so and I expressed my opinion that it seemed kind of pointless to criticize people for being positive on a Disney site. That’s discussion. Deciding whether or not certain comments should be posted is not my job, and I certainly didn’t say or mean to imply they didn’t have a right to post.
Just stop. @The Mom has been clear that the debate on how deadly the virus is is off limits. There’s plenty of other news today on actual re-opening plans (based in reality) and even a fun little side tangent on vaccines coming this year.
