View attachment 83702

Forgive me for taking all this with a massive pinch of salt, if they had a vaccine, 000s wouldnt be dying daily mate.

And yes I know it needs to go through trials, but if it worked, why wouldnt it be given to the dying, to you know, stop them dying.

But forgive me, im just really sick of reading about promises being made that people cant keep.

You don't eat it mein DiagnosisFrandel, it is injected

These science frandels need to stop promising me a vaccine and actually give me I can take OrlyVanFrandelino.

Imo don't

I don't see the issue.
Their cases have come right down.
They have it under control and are still in lockdown.
Chances of them bringing it with them is less than us spreading it ourselves.
Don't forget once they are here they go into lockdown here like everyone else.

fair enough. Just didn't sit well me imo

We arent locking down any people coming into the country.

You can have footy and still stop people dying.

Footy cant stop while we wait for a vaccine that might never come.

Of course hundreds of people are dying daily, so that needs to stop first.

But I think people to be aware that an effective vaccine might never come, we cant put the world on hold while we wait for unicorns.

It isn’t just the people who tragically die in this pandemic that cause the concern it is the much larger numbers who require urgent treatment in our overstretched hospital system.
A vaccine remains our best hope of returning to some form of normality and the scientific community is confident that at least one of the 79 or so currently in development will be successful. They were fairly far advanced in a SARS vaccine before containment of the virus prevented them from taking it to completion.
I cannot see football ( or any other large event) taking place in front of thousands of people in which ‘super spreading ‘ could occur.
In the absence of a vaccine , before we resume we will have to be able to operate a vastly enlarged and robust testing / contact and trace system of the order of that seen in S. Korea and Germany.
Or we will need to build more hospitals and health infrastructure to prevent the constant stream of patients from destroying our healthcare system completely.
As important as football is to us , it isn’t important enough to the majority of people to risk it compromising our entire economy.

We, of course, need a vaccine before we have thousands at grounds again, but football cant go on hold for 18months till we maybe find 1 mate, the world cant go hold while we wait.

Dont think Governments anywhere sort vaccines out. One in clinical trials now though.

So they can go the beach, the park, shopping for clothes and go the pub?

Bristol airport had one arrival yesterday, one today, and one tomorrow.

The same Ryan Air from Dublin.

Wether we like it or not mate , a vaccine is the only way out of this horrorshow.
There'll be no normal life (and that goes for the togger ) until it happens.

People kidding themselves thinking a ball will be kicked in anger this year.
This " social distancing" is gonna be in place for months , that rules out any sort of contact .
Yet some are believing footie is gonna start up some time this summer.

So if the Head of the research team in Oxford is confident they have the vaccine subject to trials , that is about the best we can hope for.
I see it as some sort of hope in this sorry mess.

Erm sorry if I've missed something in your post but isn't a vaccine developed to prevent infection, so no point in trialing it on those who are already infected.

Beach and park yes, shops for clothes and pubs are closed, but the whole lockdown is pretty much voluntary at this point.

I mean theres people going for 50 mile bike rides. @Bruce Wayne

At this point im sure they are trying both treatment and vaccination.
