This virus calls for serious concern. with the exponential level of ripple and death rate, yet no vaccine to nip the pandemic in the bud. God save us

So how is the Vaccine expected to work when a full infection can't create enough antibodies to stall reinfection so hows a docile vaccine strain of infection expected to guarantee that ?

There will be no vaccine. We’re going to learn to live with it soon, like other reoccurring diseases.

Please I'm very broke and almost running out of essentials. Please anyone in Kaduna? I'm will to work for Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I don't mind if I can't get an extension of days. I really need funds for sustainability as I'm here alone far from home. I can do anything legal, please.

Hopefully we all stay safe and take this thing seriously.
Is not only here in Nigeria people have downplayed the severity of this virus, it is everywhere..... People think it's a joke until it hits them.

Don't wait till you catch the virus before you do the right thing..... Try and maintain social distance and avoid touching doorknobs, railings and physical contact.

Bro, nobody is taking the issue of coro lightly, but the ways and manners our government is handling the pandemic is pitiable.
You can't keep people indoor without considering how they would survive. Most Nigerians are in the informal sectors: they earn based on their daily hustle.
We need to find a balance in between.

Do not underestimate the danger of this virus, it has a longer incubation period than the flu, and there is no vaccine against it except isolation. Let's protect each other and our loved ones !!!

May God's power heal our land in Jesus Name, Amen!

Do you know you are to live forever, even after putting off your body (i.e death)?

A Human being is actually a spirit residing in a body. Dead body means the person inside (who is a spirit) has left, to meet God for his/her just reward.

To get set for Now and when you will leave your body;
Please accept Jesus into Your Heart as Lord and Saviour TODAY and live for Him!

You are not promised tomorrow!

There's no other Perfect sacrifice for Your sin (they must be paid for before the God Almighty of Justice) Acts 4:12

Adam's sin, which you inherited through bloodline and your sins, have been fully paid for by God's Eternal Word who became a man, Jesus and died in your place (God's mercy) John 3:16


PLEASE SAY:

Dear Loving God, I accept Jesus into my heart as Lord and Saviour TODAY! Thank You for washing my sins away and lovingly making me brand new, your child in Jesus Name, Amen! (Romans 10:9-10, John 1:12-14)

CONGRATULATIONS! You are now a Righteous Child of God! Kindly get and study the Bible and rhapsody of realities regularly. (1Peter 2:1-4)

Please message me for more information. God Bless You ! smiley

Caan you prove all this things

tarantino1:



If the antibodies are not enough to prevent reinfection, it means there is still a high chance of being reinfected by the same strain and one idiot here yesterday was taking about herd immunity.


What are the chances that vaccine would even work?


Herd immunity hasn't worked. As has been seen in the UK. The thing with herd immunity is that people are going to die before it works. That sounds like a mere statement until the people dying is you or someone you know.

Our hope is that these (typo removed) vaccines that are currently under trials are able to be effective for all strains. Vaccines are primarily meant to boost immunity not necessarily make one immune.

The question is how many people have been reinfected after a previous infection?

I think it would help if WHO can provide details of such.


It's very hard to get figures because as we all know a lot of people have contracted the virus and recovered without even knowing they were infected. There is strong evidence that a lot of people than recorded have died of the virus.

It is even more difficult to identify those who have contracted the virus and recovered without knowing. Our figures likely have a big error margin in my opinion.

And so?? The flu that kills millions yearly in Europe and America doesn't it reinfect past suvivors? U guys want to put us in perpetual fear so we come cap in hand begging for ur evil vaccines. We know how many times we treat malaria yearly in this part of the world, that doesn't stop us from not going about our normal lives.

Each time you get malaria, u used already developed drugs to treat it

Eqch time somwone gets covid 19, no drug to cure it

Sir, u comparism is not accurate. Comparing apples to avocado pear is not going to be good.

If u want to compare malaria reinfection to covid 19 reinfection, when u get malaria, dont treat it, dont take any anti malaria tablets. Just take only paracetamol and multivitamins.

Or do u not know that there is no drug yet for covid 19. Those who get it are only given pain killers to handle fever, oxygen. No drugs.

I honestly don't believe WHO on this matter but if it's true, then the other way our should be developing an effective antiviral drugs against the virus.

Is not hard, they are doing it in Germany, Singapore, and some other countries already, it's called antibodies test. It's use to test if any one has had it and recover, it's what every country should be doing instead of this rubbish ncdc is doing here.

If your immune system could heal it the first time, it can heal it again and again.

Don't compare with malaria. We take drugs because immune system can't handle it.

It appears a lot of people have problems with English. You guys should look up the word 'EVIDENCE'.

The body is not saying that the natural antibodies will not work, just that THERE IS INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE TO SUGGEST IT WILL.

They are just advising countries that want to introduce the so called antibody passport to exercise some caution.

Science works with EVIDENCE not imbecilic conspiracy theories.

So in other words, a vaccine is useless. Infact there can't even be a vaccine as this virus doesn't even stimulate the immune system well enough to produce enough antibodies and it mutates too quickly. Imagine Andrew Cuomo gov of NY said the strain of the virus ravaging NY came from Europe and not China meaning we now have New COVID-20. Gawd epp us!
From Europe?? That's serious!!
