This is the best analysis of the subject I have seen - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22234042 It makes for long, but delightfully rewarding reading. Ray Dalio's thinking on the subject is also worth checking out

I wonder how realistic it is to expect a vaccine in 3 months, given that we don't have a vaccine for MERS 8 years later (and not really one for SARS either)? Is it just a question of allocating resources and shifting priorities?
