We have flu vaccines and people who get them still get the flu. People get colds every year. The most we can hope for is the virus eventually mutates to a less virulent form and we develop effective treatments for it. But again at this point in time you are probably fooling yourself thinking you are never going to get this. And that is the take I heard from a group of medical professionals yesterday so do with it what you will. And just to clarify as they pointed out, if you get it you will most likely not be a critical case unless you have an underlying condition or are otherwise at high risk. |

The flu is a poor comparison because there are four strains that we vaccinate for and all have substantial antigenic shift. |

because of the vaccine pete, with everything you have read in here there doesn't seem to be much that you retain.

If a vaccine does arrive there is going to be so much shaming of people who don’t want it right away. |

If the NNT is lower than NNH and the NNH translates to a lower percentage than the fatality rate for my cohort, I'd get the vaccine. |
