Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania say they may have a vaccine against the coronavirus
Delivered through a fingertip-sized patch, the vaccine produces antibodies specific to the SARS-CoV-2 “at quantities thought to be sufficient for neutralizing the virus,”
When tested on mice ... researchers say they “seem to be following the same trend” as mice who received the MERS vaccine, who produced antibodies sufficient to ward off the virus for a year
Source
“We knew exactly where to fight this new virus,” ... Drawing on experience with the SARS and MERS coronaviruses in 2003 and 2014 – close cousins of the virus causing Covid-19 – the researchers zeroed in on a spike protein that is key to inducing immunity
no, the SARS vaccine made animals get pulmonary immuno pathology.

I hope it's true, but I have a hard time believing it. There has never been a successful vaccine for a coronavirus. I guess they got close with SARS, then funding ran dry. But 16 years later we still don't have a vaccine for SARS.

No thank you.

The one in the OP? Not that I'm aware of.
What's your point?
On March 16, 2020, Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute (KPWHRI) gave the first-ever injection of an investigational vaccine for the 2019 novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, to 4 volunteers participating in a phase 1 federally sponsored clinical trial. https://w ww.kpwashingtonresearch.org/news-and-events/recent-news/news-2020/kaiser-permanente-launches-coronavirus-vaccine-study-seattle

yea well, religious exemption baby. You cannot make a vaccine mandatory for something that mutates every year so I doubt your conclusion will bear fruit.
Im sticking with my original timeline of everyone will be laughing at themselves by May, in regards to these microbes. Now whether we will not be laughing in relation to a different event is something to be seen.
In this video Dan Dicks of Press For Truth speaks with vaccines expert Del Bigtree about the science of the coronavirus and the vaccine manufacturing programs that are being introduced at the same time that laws are being passed that would force individuals to have to get vaccinated!

Speculation. What laws have actually passed so far??? Clearly they are building towards it. But the law also says your kids have to be vaccinated to go to school, and yet thousands or more have exemptions for that. I will stay vigilante though, you got a good point. if they make this a plan, than fighting age adults will have to just ignore the orders to view their neighbors and family as their death sentence, get together and have some bond fires at every federal building we can find.
