WHO scientist "it's going to take up to 5 years to clear the virus"
It will likely take four or five years for the coronavirus to be truly under control, according to the World Health Organization’s chief scientist.
The WHO’s Soumya Swaminathan offered her dire forecast Wednesday, warning of the many variables at play that will determine how long the virus will scourge the earth.
“Let’s say we have a vaccine and we’re able to cover the world’s entire population, which may take, I don’t know, three years, four years,” she said during a Financial Times panel discussion. “So I would say in a four- to five-year timeframe we could be looking at controlling this.”
Swaminathan added that a vaccine “seems for now the best way out,” but couched her assessment adding there is “no crystal ball” and the pandemic could even “potentially get worse.”
And if the virus mutates, it could render an established vaccine ineffective, she said.

Could.
Even if it stays that long, people will not care anymore. No one except cowards will be ok staying locked up that long.

since when has the flu faccine been effective, let alone something rushed out into human trials within 1 year. No way that many people are touching that. I'll take my chances with 0.1% death rate or lower for people under 40 with no prior conditions. Most vaccines need 5+ years of development and testing before they're even close to ready to be used by the mass population.

So sad, but us young/healthy people need to #StayInside, this is a very trying time for fatcels and oldcels who should be out doing w.e it is that they want.
The important thing is that you #StayInside, unless you're old and fat, in which case go right ahead and do w.e you please GOD.
If I hear one of you genocidal maniacs took a 1 minute detour to your local bump and grind joint aka shop, I will lose my ****.

**** the WHO.
Fuk everyone talking about the NEW WAVE that we have yet to see. COVID PT.II: I'm no longer making more money than my previous job than i do off of unemployment.
We will have more cases pop up no matter when we enter society again. If you pay attention, only your scumbag friends are suggesting we stay under lockdown longer. Your scumbag friends, or what I already mentioned, the broke people making more money off of unemployment.

Bull****.
The world didn't have a vaccine for the spanish flu and recovered. Lockdowns are only postponing the inevitable.

Ok lets play devils advocate here. Say we do have this lockdown crap happening everytime a spike in cases occurs. What then? Shut down schools, businesses (except big box stores and Amazon), close parks beaches and retrict travel.
What fukin world is there left when you restrict billions of people? What is the human cost of such measures?
A vaccine is useless against a virus which changes so what then? You'd have mass poverty, unemployment and eventually revolutions, conflicts and wars. Good job *******s you killed billions to save maybe a couple million at most who are either weak or unhealthy.
