@MajorRage yep. Joe Rogan often bemoans the lack of public health advice for individuals and I see his point. Free or cheap vitamin d, exercise and dietary advice, blanket ads about how to stay fit and prepare against the virus, health apps for people, nothing like that of any substance. No priority to it.
For people so concerned for our lives, you'd think they'd offer something other than "hide inside till we tell you you can come out"
Agree but there's more money to be made with sick people than healthy people.

What has been clear as piss for those that are honest about the state of things, is that those countries who are unhealthy (Britain, US) have suffered the most. This isn't a co-incidence.
Is this just a gut feeling. Or have you research on health levels to back this up. For example how does NZs health comapre to say the Uk. Comparing say cancer deaths average per 1million people by age group etc
It's a gut feeling based on observations. And because I live in Britain, it's a decent gut.

The GUiness 0.0 gave me a dodgy gut and then was recalled!

So it is just the annual flu. Winger was right!
I've always been a little disconcerted at his success in the tipping comps.
It's had me looking askance at the acknowledged principles of physics and logic. -

There’s another thing to watch: the New York Times reported yesterday that J&J has told the US government that they might have fallen as much as two months behind on their production schedule for the vaccine. No word as to what the problem might be. Adenovirus vectors have vulnerabilities of their own, with a whole set of manufacturing steps that are distinct from the other types. What you gain in not having everything reliant on a single pathway, you can lose when unique problems crop up. But overall it’s still far better to have a diverse set of things under development than not.

so, are we liable to still be in the same spot in 12 months time?

@mariner4life We have the vaccines now.

@mariner4life We have the vaccines now.
will they work? how quick are they effective? And by effective, i mean getting rid of this shit so the world can open up again?
remember, i last did science in 5th form, so i know less about this stuff than most things. And in reality i know fuck all about anything

@mariner4life You shoulda read the thread. But yes, they probably will.
