A runner, a young male who appeared to be in his mid-to-late 20s, moved at a swift pace down Las Vegas Boulevard early on a crisp, spring afternoon. He slowed ever so briefly as he approached an intersection at Flamingo Road, then regained his pace and continued his run. This wouldn't be so unusual, except that the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo is usually one of the busiest in town, and the runner was on the road in the traffic lanes, not on the sidewalk. He loped briskly, largely by himself, at a time when usually there would be hundreds of cars zooming through that intersection and thousands of people crowding the sidewalks.

STUPID....there is NO VACCINE for ANY VIRUS!
Huh....polio, smallpox, mumps, etc.
We have effective treatments
Probably 1/3 to 1/2 way to heard immunity per studies
Vaccine looks promising from oxford group
Las Vegas won’t come back until people stop being lemmings and controlled by the so called benevolent government.
See what Newsome did in CA? Data shows heat and UV neutralizes virus quickly. People out to beach. Governor commie decided oh no not that snd is closing all beaches in the name of safety. This is no longer science this is about control. Of the people. It’s about brining tyranny except for the special few like Newsome and pelosi.
There are some very American writings by Thomas Payne that suggests the appropriate course of action.
Yeah you might want to now say that again
OMG...sorry.....I was only thinking of cold type viruses.
So true. Why just look at all those children with polio in spite of getting. vaccinated. Oh wait there isn’t anyone with polio anymore. But still there’s smallpox: woops nevermind there isn’t any smallpox any more. Yep those diseases just disappeared on their own. Nothing to do with vaccines. This is sarcasm BTW in case you can’t recognize it.
Common Cold and EBOLA and SARS are also in the class of Corona Virus. Attempts have been made to develop vaccines for these and have failed. Even those against the class of influenza are about 50% useless due to virus mutating.
Also, I read that intra-body cellular communication is done by similar transmission of pieces of RNA. So there is a potential for systemic injury by vaccine that creates antibodies against generic RNA pieces.
The Trump administration is organizing a Manhattan Project-style effort to drastically cut the time needed to develop a coronavirus vaccine, with a goal of making enough doses for most Americans by year’s end.
Called “Operation Warp Speed,” the program will pull together private pharmaceutical companies, government agencies and the military to try to cut the development time for a vaccine by as much as eight months, according to two people familiar with the matter.
As part of the arrangement, taxpayers will shoulder much of the financial risk that vaccine candidates may fail, instead of drug companies.
The project’s goal is to have 300 million doses of vaccine available by January, according to one administration official. There is no precedent for such rapid development of a vaccine.

Wasn't he an early American blog pimp?
(Asking for mumblegunner)
Why yes he was

MERS came out in 2012. This article is from 2019 (still no vaccine). On the other hand, death rates from MERS is down - so there are other factors at hand. Most probably because MERS is much more deadly than Covid-19, so the spread of MERS is less. Difficult to spread it when one dies so quickly of it.
But yeah - folks that believe a vaccine will help us are barking up the wrong tree.
Excerpt:
“Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) is a deadly viral respiratory disease caused by MERS-coronavirus (MERS-CoV) infection. To date, there is no specific treatment proven effective against this viral disease. In addition, no vaccine has been licensed to prevent MERS-CoV infection thus far. Therefore, our current review focuses on the most recent studies in search of an effective MERS vaccine.”
But but but...The Raiders are coming! Just gotta get these bankruptcies up some more and the takeover will be complete.
“STUPID....there is NO VACCINE for ANY VIRUS!

And yet, you start your post with a personal insult calling the poster stupid. That appears to be common on FR these days. I don’t understand it.
Rhinovirus and coronavirus are the two primary causes of the cold, but no viruses go away or are cured, ever. Some are subdued, but are always there to come back under the right conditions.
LOL!! I wasn’t calling HIM STUPID. Get a GRIP.
Or until LV grows a pair and goes on offence. In the courts, on the streets.
Note to LV: Stop cowering and raise hell.
Note to LV: You guys start fighting for your own lives and I, who’s never been cuz I’ve never wanted to go, will visit Sin City to spend some money. I’ll even get on a dang plane to do it.
Question for LV’s union rank-and-file: Had enough yet? If not, keep voting Dem.
We can’t come back everywhere until enough people quit being a herd of sheeple. While we have not yet achieved sufficient herd immunity, we are too close to achieving majorities with herd mentality.
