IIRC India said it is gearing up to produce the Oxford vaccine, now in trials in the UK, even before the trials are over. If it works, the vaccine can enter production in Sept. The various serum tests are undergoing testing themselves and I think 3 show very high accuracy rates. Its hard to separate the cov 19 antibodies from the garden variety covid cold antibodies. One wonders if SARS CoV 2003 had lasted longer, would it have had many of the effects that SARS Cov 2 seems to have had?
I do have a small chuckle...everyone is saying there is no proof that antibodies in the blood show some sort of immunity to getting sick again, without trials. Well, yes, that is true. But it is also true that you would be hard presses to show me 100 viruses that infected human beings where the antibodies DIDNT offer some immunity after saving the life of the person! I got 300 viruses in my back pocket , 90 of them Covid, that seem to have offered some immunity from future infection, even of in the short term.
Pray for divine guidence for the Oxford vaccine research team. And for all researchers....
