2) It has already been proven, that some of us already have immunity.
When round two of this virus comes, this fall/winter, it may be a weaker virus, or it may be stronger. HOWEVER: Within 24 months, we will probably have a vaccine.
THis is no Andromeda Strain.
great to hear that. thank you for enlightening us.
i made the comparison based on fatalities, and with andromeda hitting a small population, the figures we have are way larger.
still, the message is: keep having positive thoughts.
thanks again for your insight.
