#3Too early to tell, but if it is a sterilizing vaccine (as in, no need for boosters if full protection is achieved) it could be a game changer.

#4It’s nice to imagine what the world look like once effective vaccines eliminate the common cold, Covid, influenza, and all sorts of other diseases. Feels like it’s in sight.

The current mRNA vaccines are sterilizing... For about three months, assuming you have a good immune system and no Omicron. Unless you are trying to go for the "supernatural immunity" Fauci talks about in relation to HIV vaccines, I don't think it's going to happen.

Lol. No it's not. No where near it.

Some vaccines don’t eliminate. Some vaccines don’t prevent transfer

#8This is encouraging. It appears to work against the omicron variant.
We're currently using the first generation of vaccines. Consider those a minimum viable product. They mostly work, need to be stored cold, have short shelf lives, don't cover enough variants, and are injection drugs.
The next generation of the technology is in development. Some vaccines in test are nasal sprays.[1] Some are pills.[2] Some have broader coverage. There are over a hundred vaccine projects underway.[3] Some will succeed, some won't.
