General Discussion / Re: Should we test the coronvirus vaccine on young healthy volunteers?

I just read that in China they started to vaccine health personnel. Why not?

We were asked if we are interested in being vaccined against the flu before this autumn... for free...
Such a generosity of our management never happened before... and I think that it will appear that 'for free' doesn't apply to everybody  ;-)
It's nice step anyway... though most of our staff with medium education level disagree with the vaccination programme.

And the lower education level staff even doesn't believe in the existence of covid. My friend says  'Someone has to be eliminated in the process of natural selection...' But I'm afraid it doesn't work like that. Those who care will be eliminated by the careless people's unconcern. Those who not care usually survive (maybe because they are in majority).

I wonder if they could start by testing it on people who think COVID is a hoax...

I've just watched this on the BBC Instagram service:

I understand this would be the step towards the inventing of the vaccine. But still have doubts:
Quote
l'm  not  sure.  The  risk  is  still  high.
 The  positive  outcome  of  the  vaccine  is  said
 not  to  be  the  spectacular  one  (3  months  of
 immunity  and  effectiveness  comparable  to
 the  flu  vaccine?  or  I  have  already  outdated
 information?).  Maybe  we  should  vaccinate
 young  healthy  individuals  to  prove  the  vaccine
 isn't  dangerous  itself,  and  then  vaccinate
 widely  people  belonging  to  groups  of  risk,
 living  in  areas  with  high  infection  possibility. I  know  there  are  people  who  are  willing  to  risk their  own  lives  and health for  community benefits.  But  should  we  accept  their  sacrifice?
 Is it really  necessary?

And what are your opinions?

Found on the Internet / Fake news and pseudoscience
« Last post by Sofia on August 19, 2020, 02:48:41 pm »
A group of european researchers published a fake article in an Asian pseudoscientific peer reviewed journal to unmask unethical practices. They payed 50 dollars in order to be able to publish this hilarious article about the impact of hydroxychloroquine in the prevention of push-scooter (trottinette in French) 🛴 accidents.
The Asian pseudo journal of medicine cancelled the hoax article meanwhile.
Here the amusing pseudoscientific article still on Research Gate website!!!
http://SARS-CoV-2 was Unexpectedly Deadlier than Push-scooters: Could Hydroxychloroquine be the Unique Solution?

Article (PDF Available) in Asian Journal of Medicine and Health 18(9):14-21 · August 2020 with 52,272 Reads

Research Gate also took off the humorous article. I was able to download the PDF. So if you are interested in reading it, just PM me an email adress and I will send it to you.  ::)
