Someone pointed out that coronaviruses still mutate & could evolve away from a vaccine, even if slowly. That’s true. But we’ll have lots of time to keep up w/ it & adapt the vaccine... flu gives us a heads up of a few months. Coronavirus would likely be years. still reassuring.
Thank you to the virologist at a company that's now working on a vaccine who reminded me of this key difference between coronavirus & flu when I asked them if they were planning to have to adapt their vaccine annually. Scientists in labs go unrecognized yet should be celebrities.
