    Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)

    I know that chances are low to have a vaccine by the end of this year and that's why I used the word hopefully. However, we have companies that are working on a vaccine night and day. One is Moderna and early on it shows promise. The Oxford University vaccine trial is also promising. There are...

    Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)

    From isuno1fan: "This...it is going to spread regardless. It just comes down to pace of spread and what risk level you are willing to take on". You are very WRONG. See my post to awd4cy. According to this logic, then countries like Greece, South Korea, and quite a few others should have many...

    Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)

    You are SO wrong on your thinking. NO! If we did nothing in March, it would make it a lot worse than it is now (it's bad enough now). I had already posted somewhere that action taken a couple weeks earlier would have resulted in thousands less getting infected. This has been stated by...

    The other MAJOR problem is this: Were all these people given COVID-19 tests? Of course not.

    No, of course not. However, I very much doubt they were all U.S. citizens. And what took him so long to not allow Europeans to enter the country?

    It was NOT a ban but only a restriction. 40,000 people still came into the U.S. after the restriction. And what about Europe? That was not put into effect until a few weeks later I believe. Meanwhile, probably thousands of infected people were still coming into the U.S.

    Yes, I certainly do! Did you carefully read my posts? What happened after the middle of January? We wasted well over month by doing nothing when the Intelligence people were issuing dire warnings as early as late January. Why is that so hard for some of you to admit or understand? Our leaders...

    Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)

    That's absolutely no excuse for our so called leaders. WHY did we waste well over a month of precious time when our own intelligence people were giving out dire warnings about this deadly and rapidly spreading virus? That has NOTHING to do with China or the WHO.

    I for one am not giving China a free pass. Yes, they could have been truthful from the start back in December. However, our government (national and local) totally let us down since they knew what was going on at least by mid to late January. They wasted over a month spewing lies and...

    Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)

    this sounds promising. I also watched a doctor about 3 hours ago who said that COVID-19 doesn’t mutate. This meat that one vaccine should do the trick. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2020/04/27/world/europe/coronavirus-vaccine-update-oxford.amp.html

    I'm going to guess that the COVID-19 will be similar to some other viruses in the past 20 years and a vaccine will be very effective. Obviously, I don't know for certain.

    Okay, Mr. Trump! After all, you are the genius. Of course I'm being sarcastic, but you deserve it.

    Yes, it is pretty much for sure gone after the vaccine becomes available. Don't you believe in vaccines?

    Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)

    Several weeks ago, I made the statement that Iowa would have 5,000 confirmed cases by August. Some here were mocking me that I had no clue for making that statement. Well, I now think 5,000 was much too low. With a firm order by Reynolds to SIP and make sure you obey social distancing, we would...

    How anyone can believe what they state on Fox News or Breitbart but not on CNN is beyond my comprehension.

    Overreaction?? Are you kidding me? What would have happened by now if there was NO ACTION at all taken in the various states?

    Wow! That's a shocking revelation by Reynolds:D. I could have told her that sometime in February.

    Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)

    Gilead is not the only company working on therapeutics. There are quite a few. It's also possible that we can ease into opening up a few companies but only while adhering to strict social distancing. The key is MASSIVE testing which we do not yet have. Hopefully, testing will greatly improve the...
