The virus isn't going away...14 Nov 2020 11:53
Crazy drop this week but what an opportunity for those that are well researched.
The virus isn't going away
This brings us back to vaccination. While the breakthrough is great news, the jury is still out as to how much impact it will have. For example, we don't know how well it works in the elderly, whether it stops people passing it on or simply stops them getting ill or how long immunity lasts.
Even with the vaccine the virus is "not going away", says Sir Jeremy Farrar, a member of the government's Sage advisory group
It is, he says, now part of humanity and here to stay. Instead, the most we can hope for is providing some protection to those who are most at risk.
The sad reality is that, despite the vaccine breakthrough, we are still going to have to learn to live with Covid this winter - and beyond.
