Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 4509706, member: 112"]I've stayed out of all these discussions up to now. But ya know, this virus isn't just going to "go away". Even if they get a vaccine it's still not gonna away, not for many, many years. They've got vaccines for all kinds of diseases, but the diseases still exist, they're still out there. And besides that the vaccines don't work for everybody. And then of course there's those who even though they get a disease, and recover, they still get it again. Me for example, I had chicken pox twice, my son had the measles twice - and he was vaccinated against it before he ever got it the 1st time ! This virus is closer to being like the flu than most others diseases like measles or chicken pox or whatever. And they've had flu vaccines for decades, but people still get the flu every year and many people have had the flu many, many times - and they'll get it again. And the flu still kills 60,000-100,000 people a year in this country - every year. My point is, by Jan. 2021, or even 2025 - covid-19 is still gonna be out there, and people are still gonna be getting it - because it aint gonna just go away. And for those that are 65 or + and or have underlying conditions - the risk is still gonna be there for us all. Now the numbers of those who get it may not be as high - but it's still gonna be there.[/QUOTE]
