A lot of the time this talk is to placate the masses. Even if they ever do develop a successful vaccine, it will take a very long time to produce enough to vaccinate 7.5 Billion people! There you go, I agree 100%

They are trialing the effectiveness of an existing aids drug for treatment. Not a vaccine. But many other institutions are just about beginning human trials of promising vaccines. Plenty of articles on those that I won’t bother to link as I’m sure everyone has seen them.

April 23, 20205 yr Are you sure you want a dirty vaccine from dirty farang land to infect Thai people? These countries should tell this guy to go fly a kite!
April 23, 20205 yr What does the approved vaccine blueprint say? "get injection, vaccine can't infect you, done!"... brilliant.

April 23, 20205 yr Popular Post 1 hour ago, genset said: Developing a vaccine for this virus may not be as straightforward as talking heads in government and the media seem to think. It's no easy feat to create a vaccine in the first place, and many times more complicated when the virus mutates, which is why we still don't have a magic bullet for the common flu after years of research. This report from Sky News suggests that 33 mutations have been identified so far. They do have a flu vaccine, although it is about 70% effective, thats certainly good enough to suppress the spread. As I understand it vaccines work differently for people depending on age and general health. Anyway, I don't believe Thailand is going to get anywhere near producing an effective vaccine before the developed countries. The UK are running trials on volunteers right now, lets keep our finger crossed the boys and girls from Oxford come up trumps.

Some estimates as high as 30% of humans will refuse I have never understood this but I have also heard many won't take vaccines, in fact I know one who who is adamant he does want any "chemical put in his body". In this case I would think and hope they make it the exception. i will be first in the line to have it pumped into me...
April 23, 20205 yr There isn't a vaccine made yet that we know of, but we should all be wary of the one that is chosen to be used. Many pharma companies big and small are working on them, but the worry is that the one approved either comes from China or from the Gates foundation. Both had prior knowledge (and patents) of the Covid19 virus before it was unleashed on the world, which in theory has given them a head start on the competition. Not wanting to start another conspiracy theory discussion but there is something completely fishy about this whole sorry episode.
April 23, 20205 yr Not sure how the Junta lot can claim to be leaders in this field? The UK are already testing their own vaccine on real people starting today Thursday 23rd April.
April 23, 20205 yr And, as a follow up:Health minister Anutin orders anti-viral vaccine trials accelerated
April 23, 20205 yr good luck. hope all goes well. more than 1 vaccine is ok in this world. but there is a warning...there is huge fake news mixed with the truth, lies, wrong info, etc. this will make taking the vaccine very questionable. this issue of trust must be addressed by thailand and the WHO. we cannot trust USA because they have a for-profit health care system. they also do not support WHO. so....my question is what does it take for the general public to jump on board and take a new vaccine. my baby born 10 years ago had a vaccine card. they list 48 vaccines she needed. hummm.
April 23, 20205 yr 13 hours ago, Andy from Kent said: Read a report that a Yank company named Gilead Science is already in the third stage of testing. I think you're confusing a vaccine with a therapy. Gilead Science is currently well down the road in testing Remdesivir for the treatment of covid19. In the meantime, two very different vaccines start human trials today in the UK. As both vaccines are so different, the failure of one will not bring down the other. They have said that if trials go well, then a vaccine will be available for manufacture by September. That shows a lot of optimism. Even if it's developed to their timescale, it will still take some time for manufacture and be available to the public. Fingers crossed.
April 23, 20205 yr 49 minutes ago, khaowong1 said: I've been told by some pretty good health professionals, that there is no vaccine for this, that hell, they still don't have a vaccine for polio. That vaccines for the common flu don't even work. Their suggestions, be aware of your surroundings, wash your hands, eat healthy, take your vitamin C's, get plenty of rest. And try not to get coughed on. Polio vaccine was developed by Salk in the fifties and has been given to children in the US since 2000. Do some reading on the efficacy of Vitamin C. The biggest con job ever.
April 23, 20205 yr Not sure where Khaowong1 got the idea that there's no vaccine for polio. The first one was developed in 1950. There were others developed after that. Jonas Salk developed his vaccine in 1955 and the oral vaccine came into play in 1961. There are two vaccines that have all but eliminated polio globally. Both vaccines are on the WHO's list of essential vaccines.

Seems to me the overall medications needed are, and very happy to be corrected by our medical experts: - A vaccine so that those vaccinated won't get infected or their immune systems will reject the virus taking hold. - A shorter-term preventative medicine, to be taken when a person enters a known virus area and having taken the preventative medicine their system will reject the virus. - A medication to treat folks who are unlucky enough to catch the virus (test proves positive) and to hopefully kill the infection quickly and hopefully stop complications and death.
