    Probably you too haven't heard about PlanDemic which is now called as Pandemic!
    If we take data of last 5 years in US or any other country during Fall season & Winter exactly the same number of people had died in all those years too(why it is acceptable in last 2 decades), but no lock down was announced for the diseases like- Influenza Like Illness, Pneumonia etc. If covid figures are to be believed to be true then double that number should have happened but it hasn't & has remained the same.
    Coming to your claim that 80%..etc. is right but out of remaining people 15% require medicines while remaining 5% require hospital stay out of them 2% require ICU admission & out of them only 1% need ventilators. When all these factors are taken into account less than 1% mortality rate is there for this virus which ls less than Influenza Like Illness of all these years which have caused 54000 deaths this year too, remaining patients who died were due to heart attacks, strokes, COPD, kidney & liver failure patients but this time they too got certified as covid.
    Most patients died as they have become guinea pigs with them getting Malaria, HIV, Ebola, etc. medicines which increase the mortality rate by 3 times
    Why- CDC suggestion for doctors is to certify any patient as covid even without testing , which has remained only 10500 certified until March.
    According to you one has to take risk in life- well not getting vaccine & getting infected & getting natural antibodies too is a risk only bold persons or those who know this hoax can take.
    If you knew how vaccine industry functions & what they contain then you will be first person to reject them. Do your own search & then only you can give real opinion. The same way stock market is not what you have claimed it to be. It depends on speculation & is controlled by market forces & not by sound basis. they are just like gamblers, they know the first comers in market will have a windfall & they want to profit too by buying their shares.

    Paracetamol, livocitrizine are banned in Udupi Market. Don't get panic if you experience mild headache, cough, sneeze! Please buy Swasamrutham aryuvedic syrup, drink 1 teaspoon with glass of warm water. You feel much better

    Moderna’s Coronavirus Vaccine Appears to Work in Early Trials. What Comes Next.

    By Josh Nathan-Kazis

    Updated May 18, 2020 7:59 am ET / Original May 18, 2020 7:35 am ET

    The biotech firm Moderna announced what appear to be very positive results from its first human trial of its experimental Covid-19 vaccine on Monday. Not only did the vaccine lead to the creation of antibodies in eight human test subjects, but the vaccine also kept the virus that causes Covid-19 from replicating in the lungs of mice.

    Moderna (ticker: MRNA) said that eight individuals treated with the vaccine at two different dose levels developed the same levels of antibodies in their blood as is found in the serum of people...

    What the vaccine industry reveals or claims is not proven when they are in closed door meetings.
    In the first place no Corona virus has ever been isolated or found, but only its residue or RNA materials are found, interesting fact is our body produces exosomes when our system gets infected by viruses, bacteria or any other foreign invaders, which has same features as shown in pictures by almost all media. So if they had developed vaccine for exosomes or real virus is very doubtful.
    The second fact revealed by renowned scientist & doctor that this Moderna vaccine is just like our Anil Ambani company which has never produced any vaccines in their history but in the news as they saw they can make hay while sun is shining. Again according to him it changes our DNA which affects our future generations to generations DNA too, which is quite dangerous, it might lead to new diseases or cancers in a longer run.
    Another fact revealed by Dr Fauci who is heading their NIHS- even when you get antibodies against any virus it doesn't mean you are immune to second infection from same virus(as proven by Flu vaccines which have failed every year).
    So don't rush in to get it but wait at the least for a year or two. In US after 1986 the law has been changed, now no parent or person can sue the vaccine companies, but can file a suit to get compensation from the govt if anybody gets vaccine injuries & death. For this reason more companies are jumping into this industry as they are safe with their booty.

    Dev,

    If we wait a year...almost all of 6 Billion humans of the world will be effected by COVID-19, perhaps 94% will survive and 4% of world population will perish...most of these elderly and people having prior lung ailments....This is not acceptable at ALL...

    We need we have to take a small amount of risk and go for Vaccination by Moderna Some others...

    If you don't take risk in life....you will not go anywhere....Stay in Hat Hill like a FROG...

    Moderna, MRNA shares are up 25 % today in one day...Do you think Americans are fools to increase stock prices of Moderna MRNA by 25% in a day without a strong trust and confidence in their ability to market a COVID-19 Vaccine???...

    ...Tak...Takk...

    What I meant if you are infected by COVID-19....94% chances you will survive without any medical treatment...4% you may die....2% either way... Which is still not acceptable...

    ...Tak...Takk...
