Mine too

But, people are crazy.
They won't stop until they get a vaccine.

Even then, I'm not sure.
They may have been permanently driven crazy with fear. They'll freak out about something else.

How many vaccines have turned people into walking zombies so far? That’s all Hollywood BS.

By the time vaccines are ready, the virus will mutate and they will be ineffective. The side effects should keep the lawyers busy for awhile.

After all the shite the Army dumped into my veins back in the 80's and 90's both here and abroad.. I'm pretty sure I'm immune to everything including the Zombie making serum.

I've been done with trusting the Gov't for 40 years.

Easy for you to say. Let us know when you're put in charge of a country with millions of sick people where you have to shoulder all the blame if anything goes wrong.

The problem with Moderna saying their going to do anything is that they’ve never done anything before. They’ve never done a vaccine or even tried to produce a vaccine on the level needed. I don’t hold much hope for them doing what they say. They seem to me to be another Tesla and keep promising the moon to get their stock up.

They are partnered with The National Institute of Health. I would say they have pretty good experience.

Astra Zeneca is partnered with Oxford.

This is waayyyy more than private companies just doing their own thing and making share holders promises. They have a pretty much unlimited budget.
