- flukus 6y ago> if there is so such thing as immunity then waiting for the vaccine is pointless no? The keyword there is lasting, we know immunity exists we just don't know for how long. If a vaccine could be distributed to enough people in a short enough time frame (we're talking billions and months) it could still wipe out the virus. But if that can't be done then mandatory vaccines for travelers could work. > ...so what is the lockdown for again? To keep the number of infections manageable and/or eradicate it entirely, it was never about stalling time for a vaccine.
- yeetman21 6y agoto keep the numbers manageable? all the hospitals are empty, the field hospitals they built for this have had 80 total patients out of the expected 10 million+ the whole purpose of "flattening the curve" was so that everyone one would get the virus but at different times, if no-one is getting it now, then that just means everyone will get it later
