The sugar microneedle spike-protein vaccine is working 100% in rats. I'd take it as soon as safety is established in monkeys—would be 45 days in a free market. We're going to need more centrifuges. You may have missed that 16%+ of ICU recovery patients may need lifelong dialysis.

Depends - I do not mean zero new infections but fast local containment of new infections detected by frequent and fast tests and preventive self-isolation in case of contact and symptoms + screening of international travelers. Can work if we now reduce active cases sufficiently.
