Much like the flu vaccine -- every year they project which flu virus they think well be effective -- it is hit or miss every year. Oh, and then they cover their butts by saying even the wrong strain of flu vaccine will help. B.S.

The item to which you were referring was about testing a treatment rather than a vaccine. But a test of Moderna's experimental vaccine also began today. It was just 64 days ago that China identified the coronavirus to WHO, and both a treatment and a vaccine are in testing.

The other stat that I heard is that it will be at least a year before they have a vaccine that can be administered to the general population.
This is going to be a very loooong year!

As I posted in another thread, the FDA's testing and approval process is haunted by Thalidomide and DES. To use an analogy I've read elsewhere, if "safety" and "speed" are two pans in a pan balance, the FDA process starts with an anvil in the "safety" pan.

How so?
How about a temporary short term measure, to save lives?
BTW South Coast Plaza, a favorite of visitors from Asia, closed today.
An Asian owned gun store in San Gabrial Valley, reported increased gun sales. I presume they are selling to area Asians, fearing attacks over their ethnicity.
Way beyond Ironic, since many medical personnel are Asians, walking into the fire every day to help people.
