Though I do think some folks get anxiety wearing masks that can cause them to breath heavier making it feel like its a problem. Still if you get used to it not a big deal.

I (a completely uniformed person, so take this with a grain of salt) would think that the vaccine wouldn't be annually available like the flu shot. There have been Corona viruses for years, such that the majority of people in the world have had it before, and most have similar effects to the common cold. These did not require vaccines back then, and I don't see why they should now, unless new strains are rapidly emerging. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, the flu vaccine is made with the scientists predicting which strain is going to be most prevalent. Sometimes they get it right, sometimes there's a couple strains that get pretty big. It's a guessing game predicting the spread of viruses a long time in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll still get the flu vax every year, and I'll get a COVID vax if one is available, but I'm going to treat it more carefully than Botterill evaluating trade returns for O'Reilly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one of those corona viruses on that list is the one causing the pandemic. #7 That is why they are linking it. It is the one that is prevalent. They don’t want to confuse people so they’re leading you in the right direction. I’m guessing the focus is on a vaccine for that one, the one that is causing our pandemic but what do I know? As for the frequency of vaccination, how can we know until enough time has passed to have enough data to even judge how long immunity lasts. Unfortunately the CDC, from which you’ve linked, doesn’t receive the data any more. I won’t say where it goes now for obvious reasons. BTW. NIOSH, CDC, all great resources. Tried and true regardless of what the twitter monster tells you. Their stats have helped me convince many a young person to wear the PPE and be safe. Thanks for linking to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
