That is obviously correct. And I realize you take some personal comfort in reiterating that because maybe it makes you feel sage in some fashion or another. But the point isn’t really that relevant to the post since there was no suggestion that wrestling take precedence over the issues of the day. I didn’t suggest the event be held in the face of the current risk—in fact I said “if there is a chance...”.The world does not revolve around the sport of wrestling.
The traditional vaccine will require at least a year or possibly more. The mRNA vaccine will take significantly less time. Getting FDA approval during a state of emergency will be significantly facilitated. Given that mRNA vaccines have already been approved for human use with influenza it is simply a matter of re-sequencing the mRNA to match the antigen codon profile of the coronavirus and voila. There are at least 4 biotechs that specialize in mRNA type vaccines that are already working on a solution. One of those biotechs is already starting human trials in Seattle for the coronavirus. What they will be looking for in that human trial is that introducing the mRNA in healthy subjects results in the production of the same antibodies produced by getting infected. Once that is confirmed it is a short step to approval for prophylactic use. This type of vaccine doesn't provide the same type of long term immune response as a traditional vaccine however it is much safer. It has zero risk of causing the infectious disease because the virus is not used in the production of the vaccine. It has virtually no risk of anaphylaxis as no hazardous chemicals are used to attenuate the virus. It simply provides the body with the instructions to produce the antibodies required to fight the infection which can significantly reduce the risk of getting infected and in patients with weakened immune response it will allow them to respond better/faster to the infection.The Vaccine can take up to a year to get approved
