Thank you!

By the way, thanks for an overall, solid post.

Covid is a Coronavirus and Coronaviruses aren't new. They have been studied for quite awhile now which is the reason a vaccine was able to be created so quickly. Because we understand the basics of Coronaviruses once the Covid genome was sequenced creating a vaccine wasn't very difficult.

Also the MRNA delivery mechanism for the vaccine isn't new, its been around 25-30 years. In fact MRNA is used in a lot of cancer treatments.
