What's your reaction to the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic? 🦠

It was absolutely horrible.

The situation seems to be living in slightly different directions all the time :mask:. At times, restrictions were already being eased and now there are blackmail again :hot_face:. In fact, I have decided not to travel at this time for anything :airplane:. I’m here in Finland :finland: and has been relatively peaceful in terms of coronal :disappointed_relieved:, compared to, say, neighboring countries of Sweden :sweden: or Russia :ru:. There are no plans now to travel anywhere until this disease situation in the world eases :world_map:, and I don’t think it will alleviate it until we come up with a vaccine that is effective against the disease :nauseated_face:. Hopefully the situation will quickly pass :+1: and we will be able to travel normally again :airplane:. I can’t afford to risk my health :man_health_worker: with a potential illness that could, at worst, end my chances of doing my current job as an athlete :athletic_shoe:.

Anti covid drug Favipiravir(Avigan) was already discovered in Japan and used in China and so on.

But its vaccine development is a competition among nations.

Today report of Russian anti covid vaccine in the Lancet:

phase 1/2 trial
“Gam-COVID-Vac” vaccine against the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), developed by the Gamaleya National Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology and the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), during its production at Binnopharm* pharmaceutical company in Zelenograd near Moscow, Russia
Human adenovirus vector based vaccines (non carcinogenic, safe)
Two-stage introduction
T-cell immune activation (cellular immunity required for antivirus)
Long term immunization (memorise)
1.5 times higher antibody level than infected patients
Not expensive
Seems better than AstraZeneca’s
*US sanctions over Binnopharm

We should avoid being hothead and deciding to have vaccine especially new one and new version of old vaccine as well. Here are examples of terrible adverse effects:

Eugenic:

Papilloma vaccine killed at least seven children.

For anti-covid, we already have immunity against covid (cellular immunity, herd immunity:

), and have drugs from Japan(Avigan) and Russia (Avifavir, quarter price derivative of Avigan) both blocks viral replication by blocking viral RNA polymerase:
