An important article regarding the difficulty of a hoped CV19 vaccine usage in older persons.

 

Does not make the notion of everyone returning to cruising in the future sound feasible.

You posted this on Celebrity board too.  Like spreading potentially bad news?

Indeed. If this is the case, it will cut down on the number of seniors who are willing to cruise.  Thank you for sharing.

Notice there is a lot of "may" and "may not" in the story. The science is pretty thin at this point. That is why the "warp speed" rush to a vaccine is not all that great. They aren't getting the time to do all the research and testing, proving or disproving many of these possibilities.

This article does not even come under the heading of "News."  It is nothing more than speculation based on how other vaccines, such as influenza, have or have not protected people.  The article, IMHO, is not worth the time to read it.

Lots of various companies working on vaccines all over the world. Don’t fret about what you hear now.

I think those who view vaccines as a silver bullet are going to be disappointed.

This crisis is only 6 months old.   I don’t think anyone knows anything definitive.  There are many so called scientists making pronouncements.  Many of these so called experts writing papers are not even experts in epidemiology.   Unfortunately all we can say is we will know when we know.
