They're saying pangolins were the intermediary. It makes a lot of sense as they're eaten in China only to my knowledge. Inactivated or weakened form of the virus. By injecting the common live virus, you'll get...sick.
Butterball there doesn't seem to realize that "...injecting small virus into your body and immune system fights it and you become immune." is the same thing as going over to the Wuhan province and breathing. Well, that isn't working well.
The authors of Dracula and Frankenstein, Stoker and Shelly never mentioned pangolins. I'll stick to the wooden stake.
Hehe, I got bitten only a "little bit" by a "stray unknown dog" 5 years ago, and still had to get the full rabies vaccine regimen. Depending on your weight, you could need anywhere from 8 to 20+ shots over the course of a couple weeks. Good luck! P.S. I wonder if butterball will recognize the fact that we already have a vaccine for stuff like the flu and rabies, but not this corona thing, at least not yet.
All this talk about Coronavirus is very scary to me. I once had the deadly Clostridium Difficile bacteria infection after coming out of a coma from the Pneumonia in 2016. I was quarantine in the hospital for an additional 3 weeks with only my laptop and iPhone to communicate with the outside world. Seeing all the recent news coverage of doctors and nurses in protective medical gear looks like / reminds me exactly what it was like when I was quarantine in the hospital. The isolation was not anything I would wish upon my enemies. It tests your sanity and you got to have a strong mind to get thru something like that. In fact, another patient (someone that recently had a leg amputation from a car accident) on my floor died from the same bacteria infection. Days later, the nurse assigned to my room accidentally poked herself with the needle after taking a blood draw. The look on her face was unforgettable...pure fear. The hospital immediately did a blood test on her, sent her home for isolation for 1 week plus at home blood tests. To add insult, I was later cleared to leave the hospital although still gravely ill and in-out of consciousness...they medivac (medical flight) me back home for rehab at a facility near my home. I even had an in-flight blood transfusion. Boom, at the new hospital...I got a different deadly bacteria infection because my immune system was still too weak and still recovering from the septic pneumonia. Quarantine again for another 3 weeks before rehab could start. This entire time...I had not regained strength in my legs from the coma ordeal...couldn't even walk. Stuck in the bed or a wheel chair but couldn't leave the room. Later...sent to a special area of the hospital that will become my rehab home. The nurses at the rehab facility even wore medical goggles with their protective medical gear. Crazy stuff these infections...not something you want to get. The day I was released just for a 3 hour visit to my home with a private nurse (no more quarantine)...I took a taxi to a nearby McDonald's and ordered a Cheeseburger against the wishes of the private nurse. I still had catheters sticking out the sides of my neck...looking like Frankenstein. The counter clerk at McDonald's asked if I was Ok...I snapped at her and said...Do I Look Like I'm Ok ? Best damn cheeseburger I ever ate although later it felt like I was going to vomit. wrbtrader
Modern rabies vaccine is not as bad. I've had it and a booster as well (I'm dumb enough to like animals). Living in a region now with plenty of (human) rabies deaths, it's eerie. It's 3 or 4 shots to the arms. Although the second time I had massive headaches for weeks, side-effect of the vaccine.
Vaccine Types There are several different types of vaccines. Each type is designed to teach your immune system how to fight off certain kinds of germs — and the serious diseases they cause. When scientists create vaccines, they consider: How your immune system responds to the germ Who needs to be vaccinated against the germ The best technology or approach to create the vaccine Based on a number of these factors, scientists decide which type of vaccine they will make. There are 4 main types of vaccines: Live-attenuated vaccines Inactivated vaccines Subunit, recombinant, polysaccharide, and conjugate vaccines Toxoid vaccines Live-attenuated vaccines Live vaccines use a weakened (or attenuated) form of the germ that causes a disease. Because these vaccines are so similar to the natural infection that they help prevent, they create a strong and long-lasting immune response. Just 1 or 2 doses of most live vaccines can give you a lifetime of protection against a germ and the disease it causes. But live vaccines also have some limitations. For example: Because they contain a small amount of the weakened live virus, some people should talk to their health care provider before receiving them, such as people with weakened immune systems, long-term health problems, or people who’ve had an organ transplant. They need to be kept cool, so they don’t travel well. That means they can’t be used in countries with limited access to refrigerators. Live vaccines are used to protect against: Measles, mumps, rubella (MMR combined vaccine) Rotavirus Smallpox Chickenpox Yellow fever Inactivated vaccines Inactivated vaccines use the killed version of the germ that causes a disease. Inactivated vaccines usually don’t provide immunity (protection) that’s as strong as live vaccines. So you may need several doses over time (booster shots) in order to get ongoing immunity against diseases. Inactivated vaccines are used to protect against: Hepatitis A Flu (shot only) Polio (shot only) Rabies Subunit, recombinant, polysaccharide, and conjugate vaccines Subunit, recombinant, polysaccharide, and conjugate vaccines use specific pieces of the germ — like its protein, sugar, or capsid (a casing around the germ). Because these vaccines use only specific pieces of the germ, they give a very strong immune response that’s targeted to key parts of the germ. They can also be used on almost everyone who needs them, including people with weakened immune systems and long-term health problems. One limitation of these vaccines is that you may need booster shots to get ongoing protection against diseases. These vaccines are used to protect against: Hib (Haemophilus influenzae type b) disease Hepatitis B HPV (Human papillomavirus) Whooping cough (part of the DTaP combined vaccine) Pneumococcal disease Meningococcal disease Shingles Toxoid vaccines Toxoid vaccines use a toxin (harmful product) made by the germ that causes a disease. They create immunity to the parts of the germ that cause a disease instead of the germ itself. That means the immune response is targeted to the toxin instead of the whole germ. Like some other types of vaccines, you may need booster shots to get ongoing protection against diseases. Toxoid vaccines are used to protect against: Diphtheria Tetanus The future of vaccines Did you know that scientists are still working to create new types of vaccines? Here are 2 exciting examples: DNA vaccines are easy and inexpensive to make — and they produce strong, long-term immunity. Recombinant vector vaccines (platform-based vaccines) act like a natural infection, so they're especially good at teaching the immune system how to fight germs. https://www.vaccines.gov/basics/types
