So Dr Biotech are you going along with the majority and saying a vaccine will be produced?
If so, give me a laugh with your expectations, 1month, 2months, 3months, 6months, 12months or never?
Let's hear from a so called expert.
I'll say never.

Cold is caused by many different viruses, and is more or less harmless so no commercial or medical need to make a vaccine.

Chinese Virus Update:


At last someone is smart and has the guts to sort out the WHO, they supported China...who pays the least and managed to get their man in the top position...and didnt alert the world about the Virus when there was still time....Hope UK follows and stops the payments..wake up world,if this isnt a lesson worse will happen.


Donald Trump freezes ALL $500 million of U.S. funding for World Health Organization accusing it of accelerating the pandemic by opposing his partial ban on travel from China and putting political correctness above lifesaving..

Mike cat, hit the nail on the head. A vaccine is the biggest red herring we've seen. They've spent the last 10years trying to produce a vaccine for a range of influenza and been unable to do so as mutations occur. They have no chance whatsoever. A number of people have also ended up serving time for promising investors something that their vaccine could never do.

Just a thought.... Think about this how long have we had the common cold. It’s a virus with no vaccine. But people think we’ll have one in the next year or two for the Coronavirus

Any ideas if the virus has killed the dividend completely or just indefinitely delayed it?

Barclays said its remuneration committee had determined that, in light of the current environment, parts of the executives’ long term incentive plans due to vest in 2020 should be delivered instead on March 8, 2021.
The move follows an announcement last week that Staley and Morzaria would give a third of their pay for the next 6 months to charities working to battle the virus.
The news follows wider voluntary pay cuts announced by top British banking executives in recent weeks, including some giving up their bonuses entirely.

The First Real U.S.-China War Could Be Fought In The South China Sea

Nevertheless, both China and the United States are making commitments in the South China Sea that each may find difficult to back away from. Over the past two weeks, these commitments have generated a war of words that analysts of the relationship have found troubling. The key problems focus on China’s efforts to expand (or create) islands in the Spratlys, which could theoretically provide the basis for claims to territorial waters.

JPM missing too! get out of these rotten companies before your cash is absorbed worthlessly.

China is an ancient and great Nation though it certainly has control issues.
I'd rather however have a major trade deal with the PRC than Trumpland.
Anyhow, we are all finished anyhow, massive slump is forecast.
TIP:
Sell any shares you or anyone may have left and make sure you own gold and silver.
