Some good news, we already got a vaccine here in Romania - testing it next on human cells in the lab, then tests on volunteers in a month or so - if successful and safe, will go into production soon after.
https://oncogen.ro/oncogen-vacci…
paper: https://www.preprints.org/manusc…
our scientists are making the design and specifics "open source" so everybody can benefit from it (not like other labs are doing, delaying the testing so they can patent it and profit later).
so yeah, no need for 18 moths of lockdown
p.s. btw Romanians invented both insulin and a cure for tuberculosis after WWI so we're pretty sure this vaccine could work and we can stop this madness soon enough
- Go Romania!utopian
- That's great, but I wonder how long until any vaccine is realistically available due to the time needed for testing.yuekit
- There is also a trial beginning in Seattle.
https://www.bbc.com/…yuekit - Fantastic. Black sea here I come!srhadden
- Tests on volunteers, 3 phases: 10 100 1000 people, should be safe already, this is just "tagging" proteins so that the immune system can destroy the virusgrafician
- i beliefe they need to wait some time in phase 3 to see how effective it is, how long it stays active. probably up to 6-12 months..uan
- good news but there's many of these stories, unfortunately many drugs may work at dev stage but fail in human trails.shapesalad

Is anyone else shifting frequently between moments of dread and moments of optimism?
I don’t know what to feel from one moment to the next, and I’m a pretty strong person. But anxiety and tension is kicking up. I just looked at my 2 1/2 year old son as I tucked him in, told him I loved him, and my mind is just spinning thinking about how innocent and little he is, and wondering after all this, if we survive it, what his world is like in the future.
I keep thinking “we’re on day THREE... WTF is this going to be like in May... July... and on and on.”
It’s just too surreal to comprehend. A fucking virus sweeping the earth, causing us to be more fearful than we’ve probably ever been as people, killing many with untold deaths to come, we’re bound to lose friends and family and never go back to what was normal a week ago.
- yeah its hard to know where its all going exactly.Bennn
- personally i feel we're doing the right things over here and i trust my gov. People are also very docile compared to what we see in the USBennn
- Dont want to be pessimistic, but i'm kind of worried about you guys in the US.. Your system and culture is very different than ours in Canada.Bennn
- I fear social chaos in the US if things start to go south...Bennn
- Man, looking in your kids eyes is one of the best medicines. Even though things are bad, we're in a much better position to fix it than ever before.PhanLo
- Exactly what Benn said... I fear that in 7-8 days the amount of cases is going to skyrocket ... really hope I’m wrong.Ramanisky2
- it's all happening for a reason.horton
- I tell my daughter (5) all the time “mom and dad’s #1 job is to keep our babies safe.” It’s distressing to tell her and know we’re doing all we can, butmg33
- ... everything is so uncertain.mg33
- I feel ya bro. gotta be super hard with young kids.Ramanisky2
- We're all working together, it's truly a global event and we'll make it!!robotron3k
- i don't have kids but my dog has been getting lots of hugskingsteven
- ! And what happened, then? Well, in QBN they say – that Robo's small heart grew three sizes that day..._niko
- Yup. Dread, good news, aww shit, oh, OK!, fuck!, well, WTF??, vodka, wake up, FOR GOD SAKE, yay!, fuck!Akagiyama
- I'm not so worried about the virus...we could all die of anything anytime. It's the financial side of things that terrifies me.BusterBoy
- If I can't pay my mortgage and the bank doesn't offer relief...I'm fucked. And house prices will probably dive so if I have to sell...BusterBoy
- Yes the global crash is scarier than the virus unfortunately. This could be a depression level event.yuekit
- buster, Canadian banks are deffering mortgage payments for 6 months, I'm sure other countries will follow suit_niko

- also @Hayoth it's not just testing or population. We have cities that are running out of hospital beds. We have cities with morgues that are having to bring..garbage

People around me act as if everything was normal again. They say it’s the new normal.
My 2020 is miserable and I have no idea when I will be able to proceed with my projects.
Maybe some of you feel the same. Just wanted to say how this feels for me at the moment.

- Thanks for cheering me up, guys. I tried to explain that I am ok, just feeling odd, because there's no perspective yet.SimonFFM
- My projects involve traveling, models, locations. All is extremely vague at the moment. Lost already several thousands and won't want to risk another time.SimonFFM

- that the more you just uninterruptedly post about yourself and your work and your problems, the less I care about all of it. peace out.srhadden

I'am slightly starting to think we do way too much against the covid19 for some specific things. I know this is a very contagious virus, but sometimes it seems the logic is thrown out the window.
- i'm curious what you think is too much, like some specific things? I agree a bit when it came to closing parks and open spaces which you can social distance safcapn_ron
- Refer to the Japanese flu from the 50s for a alternative approach. The mortality rate, numbers of dead, etc seem similar to our current pandemic.MondoMorphic
- some people seems to think that virus is literally jumping from people to people. Lots of paranoia. And its normal i guess with all the news since months now.Bennn
- How strict is the lockdown where you're at? I feel like I see people on TV protesting, but then I talk to my family back in USA and their lives are basicallyyuekit
- So much of the problem early on was the lack of understandingMondoMorphic
- normal with a few minor restrictions.yuekit
- It's important not to let a non-elected person dictate the health policy of an entire country. Yes Bill Gates I'm talking about you and your hobbies.robotron3k
- Meanwhile in Spain people were literally trapped inside their homes. I don't think Americans or Canadians ever went through something like that.yuekit
- But all of this has been politicized. Look at party tits Cuomo, what a turd he is. I'd like him to step up and try Washington, they will eat his lunch.robotron3k
- Ask yourself if you want the virus. I personally don't want to risk it. Sure could be mild. Could also be permanent damage and weeks in an ICU.shapesalad
- For sure, the politicization has been awfulMondoMorphic
- So while tiring to have all these measures. I'd rather have them than the virus. Next you can ask yourself if you want to pass the virus onto your family...shapesalad
- I was just looking to see if I could have a bonfire on the bay here and there is no stopping, sitting, or laying down. only moving is allowed.capn_ron
- Once you think through those two questions you start to calm down and think yep, lockdown ok, at least we're in an industry where you can WFH anywhere.shapesalad
- we're preparing for another spanish flu of 1918, see if we can practice safe measures before the Tsunami hits in the fall, so far they're tracking the same._niko

- @yuekit Um, Seattle was a vector city and I have been on lockdown for almost 5 months now. It has completely changed virtually every aspect of my daily life.garbage
- And there is a political aspect because this dumbfuck administration completely bungled this in multifaceted ways.garbage

- 2013 new cases in the UK, even without adequate testing, 412 deaths yesterday and things are opening up next week...webazoot
- I would not be surprised if we hit 200k before year's end. Things are warming up, people are getting bored. Cases are ramping in CA and southern states..garbage
- ..and that outpaces older models for a second wave. Fall is going to suck in a big way.garbage
- 5 months!? woah, didn't know that, even Spain and Italy weren't under extreme lockdown anywhere near that long.fadein11
- That is hard.fadein11
- Pretty sure he meant five weeks? Five months ago would be before all this started.yuekit
- I know obviously...fadein11
- No, since late January. I know people that work in the medical community here, and they were worried about this in December.garbage
- But yeah, five months. I haven't seen any of my friends in five months. Neither have they. So when people spout ignorance on the topic, I tend to get irritated.garbage
- So if I've been coming in hot here lately, it's because it's been just me, my girlfriend, her loud-ass keyboard and the dogs since the beginning of the year.garbage

A single $1200 stimulus check, massive unemployment over 8 months.
How are people staying alive?

Common Flu kills 60,000 people every years in Europe.
The Corovirus kills only 99% of people who catch it and its almost only old and sick people.
The medias has, again, managed to create a climate of fear and paranoia amongst the population.... So many people thinks that catching this virus means death.
- read that again Bennd_gitale
- I'd be terrified if that was the case! ;-)Ianbolton
- bennsplanation!!!!hans_glib
- only 99%. I feel safer nowBeeswax
- "kills only 99%" lolNBQ00
- Don't fall for the fear-mongering guys, it only has a 99% death rate!yuekit
- Haha. If it kills 99.9%, then I’d be worried.thumb_screws
- Yes and more people are killed by leishmaniasis but whatever let’s say this coronavirus is a pussy in comparison. I still don’t want it mate.shapesalad
- LOL its Monday. 99% survive yeah, 1% dies :PBennn
- You dont want it, but you would survive it and just have a few days off at home to watch netflix and play videogames.Bennn
- Bennnn, what do you think about this?
https://www.qbn.com/…yuekit - Peoples don't thinks catchings this virus means death.
Do you understand the resources needed to contain and treat the virus? That is the real problem.deadsperm - Upvoted for the "kills only 99%" though.deadsperm
- @yuekit I dont know, but all the people who got the virus in Canada are in quarantine at home and no one is dyingBennn
- @deadsperm, i know, but do you know how much ressources it takes for the common flu? Our hospitals are flooded by people with common flu over here, every yearBennn
- Deaths from the common flu and other diseases have become socially accepted though.deadsperm
- The fear doesn't come from the media but from having a new phenomenon killing people that is spreading so quickly. Even if it doesn't kill that many people.deadsperm
- Imagine what would happen if governments chose to ignore it because it doesn't kills enough peoples.deadsperm
- i agree 100% But i dont agree about the media. They're 100% capitalising on it for clicks and views and induce fear into population 100%Bennn
- It's a hoax.deadsperm
- I’m that only 24 cases have been found in Canada so far. Not sure you can draw any conclusion based on that?yuekit
- I think the fear is based on not how many people have died or gotten seriously ill so far, but how many could if it spreads.yuekit
- If you look at 3% death rate and 20% hospitalization rate and multiply by the entire population of an entire country, that pretty much would crash theyuekit
- medical system of any country. Is it going to actually spread that widely? Maybe not, it could just fizzle out.yuekit
- The fear is getting it twice. That’s the fear. And if you don’t know why, what medcram on YouTube to understand the biology.shapesalad
- But taken at face value the numbers are quite scary.yuekit
- Get your facts straight Bennn. China has reported 2.75% kill rate. In other countries such as Iran it has a 15% kill rate. Expect 40-70% to contract COVID-19utopian
- Sensationalism plays a part but this is a new strain of the flu virus. They can also mutate. Which is a genuine worry.monoboy
- Add to that the opaqueness of certain governments and people start to speculate.monoboy
- Without vaccination, it could become a serious issue.monoboy
- *amonoboy
- Sadly, poor measures and panic might actually make it a lot worse than it is.monoboy
- Especially in religious backwaters where the poor don't have access to healthcare. Like America.monoboy
- And lots of firearms.monoboy
- i agree, i know its serious. its just that reading the news, it looks like the apocalypse is uppon us. its just a bit too much.Bennn
- it feeds the gigantic machine that is the News Medias. Its candy for them.Bennn
- If people are viewing the Spanish flu outbreak as comparable then it doesn't look good. But we've moved on a bit since then.monoboy
- Thank God C-19 is replacing Flu so we don't have to worry about flu any mo .. oh, wait, hold on.Nairn
- Yeah, we have move on since then, monoboy - now we have literally millions of people travelling the entiriety of the globe within hours.Nairn
- Switch it off. We'll all have to wait for truth to become profitable again.monoboy
- At least in the good ol' days, a Ship's captain could quietly dump fevered individuals overboard...Nairn
- Aren't they executing positive cases in North Korea on the spot. Or did I believe something on the internet again?monoboy
- Corona virus kills less than 1/2 a percent at a solid .2-.4% rate. That’s double the rate of flu which is .1%.monospaced
- 2 – 4%, not 0.2 – 0.4%, no?Nairn
- overall 2-4%, in the 30-40 age group its 0.2%drgs
- it's ~3% while the hospitals are functioning. Think the worry is that gets worse once numbers of infected increase, or supplies run low.monNom
- 60% of the time it kills every time.fooler
- The rate is incredibly low and the main “supplies” needed to fight it are hot liquids, rest and symptom relief while you recover.monospaced
