> And for that matter, flu kills a ton of people every year, are we going to add another flu to the world without fighting back I feel like they're realistic limits. People are not gears and you cannot turn humanity off like batteries. There is unrest in Ecuador when cities began running out of morgue space. There's unrest in parts of the world where people haven't seen paychecks for two months. Most high income countries have been overproducing food for years, but we're still losing a lot of food quickly. We're depending on that overproduction slack to hold. Combined with the difficultly of creating coronavirus vaccines. I've read people attribute the lack of a good SARS1 vaccine due to the economics/capitalism, but there seems there more to it. Animal and human trials have produced vaccines that may not provide long lasting immunity and have dangerous side-effects: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3335060/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3335060/ A vaccine in less that 5 years feels very unrealistic, not for a safe one. I have a feeling humanity may need to come to the realization that our life expectancy may have been significantly lowered for the next several years, if not decades.
