Prof Luke O Neill says that there will be a vaccine by September. Huge amounts of money are being spent all over the world on development, by both the corporate world, (to counter global recession) and pro bono operators like Microsoft, and the Norwegian government (€200 million). There is currently a vaccine in human trials in the US.

I heard that Prof as well.  He said there's two current drugs (for arthritis & SARS, I think) that probably work on the virus because they reduce inflammation in the lungs.  Problem is the way the system works is you have to prove it first and that could take months as well.

The Prof said the drug was €10k/year for the arthritis  :o  :o

He said they also gave it free to the Chinese Govt to test on their coronavirus patients so if it's proven to work, they'll be quids in (and the price should come down).

And you shall . . . make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the edible creature and the creature which is not to be eaten.  Leviticus 11:46-47 (NASB)

Some of the animals that were unclean were the camel, rock badger, rabbit, and the pig. They could eat any of the fish with fins and scales. Among the birds, the eagle, vulture, buzzard, kite, falcon, raven, ostrich, owl, sea hawk, little owl, great owl, cormorant, pelican, stork, carrion vulture, heron, hoopoe and bat could not be eaten. Among the insects, they could not eat were those that walked on four legs, except for the cricket, locust, and grasshopper. The following were also unclean: the mole, the mouse, the great lizard in its kind, the gecko, the crocodile, the lizard, the sand reptile, and the chameleon. Leviticus 11 provides a more detailed list.

Arachnids are arthropods that have four pairs of legs. Centipedes are also arthropods, but not insects: they are in a subphylum called the Myriapoda.

It's a long read but might interest some.
TL;DR:  Mass testing is better than mass lockdowns.

Italy and South Korea were hit by coronavirus outbreaks at the same time - but have responded differently (https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/03/special-report-italy-and-south-korea-virus-outbreaks-reveal-disparity-in-deaths-and-tactics/) (World Economic Forum, 13 Mar 2020)

Quote
In Italy, millions are locked down and more than 1,000 people have died from the coronavirus. In South Korea, hit by the disease at about the same time, only a few thousand are quarantined and 67 people have died. As the virus courses through the world, the story of two outbreaks illustrates a coming problem for countries now grappling with an explosion in cases.

Italy and South Korea have similar populations.

Here is the equation Lockdown or No lockdown .The aim is heard immunity so you accept everybody will get it and build immunity or die simple as .How it works lockdows slows down the infection speed so extends the epidemic but controls the event or no lockdown and let the whole lot get it and get it over with .The only question is moral can we accept 10,000 deaths in a month or 10,000 over a year .The danger of mass extinction is mass rebellion and the overthrow of the State by panicked peoples .The antidote to panic is the wash your hands advice which is designed to downplay the seriousness of the virus ,if people think clean hands is all it takes to keep then safe then so be it I wouldnt walk under a ladder on friday the 13th .

Let them say what they like........all part of the human condition, Dalyer. Mr Erm has been circulating double-agent rumours about me for some time now.....he reckons I work from a hut during the week and that's where I get the time to post, but I disappear at the weekends as the hut needs to be de-plasmafied from all the static and heat generated by my keyboard(s). What he doesn't know is that he knows me very well and only thinks I'm working as a cover for MI5/CIA/NASA/Hail0/Mytaxi/David Icke etc. Sure it's all part of the madness, Dalyer. Sat and Sun I cover for the psychiatric nurses in what seems to be a disused asylum near Newgrange............it's actually an experimental nuthouse for those who believe themselves to have kidnapped by Aliens.
