Uh oh, what if?

I know you've heard that the coronavirus could slow down and disappear with the coming summer heat. It probably will because most all pandemics have. However, all the pandemics came back with a vengeance in the fall months. The Uspanish flu killed the most in the following fall/winter months after first appearing and killing a few in the spring.
So you think we play college football in the fall?

Hopefully, we have a vaccine or some viable treamnet (other than death) by then.

Older ways of determining vaccines have been changed by virtually deconstructing the molecules of the drug, and allowing a computer to match the drug formulation to the elements of the virus.
Inovio had a potential vaccine to the virus 3 hours after its genetic makeup was released. If its timleine to clinical trials can be compressed, it could make it to market this year:
http://ir.inovio.com/news-and-media/news/press-release-details/2020/Inovio-Accelerates-Timeline-for-COVID-19-DNA-Vaccine-INO-4800/default.aspxInovio Accelerates Timeline for COVID-19 DNA Vaccine INO-4800 Human Trials Planned for April; One Million Doses Expected by Year End Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:INO) today announced an accelerated timeline for developing its DNA vaccine INO-4800 to address COVID-19, the respiratory infection the World Health Organization (WHO) has designated a Public Health Emergency of International Concern of the highest level. According to WHO, approximately 89,000 cases have been reported globally with more than 3,000 deaths. Dr. J. Joseph Kim, Inovio's President CEO, shared this accelerated timeline at the U.S. Coronavirus Task Force meeting at the White House on March 2. Dr. Kim said, "Inovio is the leader in coronavirus vaccine development and the only company with a Phase 2 vaccine for a related coronavirus that causes Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS). Using our modern DNA medicines platform, we designed our DNA vaccine INO-4800 in three hours after the publication of the genetic sequence of the novel coronavirus that causes
Gilead already has a drug - Remdesivir - that was originally formulated for Ebola, but seems to be working well against Covid19. Its already in clinical trials in China, and in some other cases as "compassionate use" (not exact wording--something like that).

Ther are also 7 other drug companies working on a vaccine that are close:

I'd look for something later this year, if not in the fall.

It is. Let's hope it pans out.

If Gilead could announce they have a definite vaccine, the market would shoot through the roof.

You all the sudden decide to be a worst poster than FBCoach which is admirable. You take a pulse beating everyday due to your trolling.
How about this, no one cares what you think. Well maybe 30% or so which is of your ilk and that portion is sad.
Find a new site man. Start over.

How is that a troll? Someone on a thread around said they were relieved that this didn't hit in the fall and cause cancelling then. Did a little look up on the way pandemics move about and...crap, what if? Really, not a troll.

Just don’t buddy up with Felix. It may cause other, more refined members here to question your upbringing.

Ask Tom Hanks. Heat may slow it some. But doesn't look like much.

Hard to tell. They are going into fall.

And they have about the same temps as CHS does now. And we can't tell where he got it, or where anyone else has.
