On the show 60 Minutes a couple weeks ago there was a great interview about the Pentagon project which aims to save soldiers from all types of foreign viruses. Here's a quote from the interview which can be found on line in its w=entirety:
"Dr. Modjarrad says in five years a single vaccine could defeat all coronaviruses: that means many common colds, the deadly strain causing this pandemic and thousands of others.
Bill Whitaker: Is that at this point-- a dream?
Dr. Kayvon Modjarrad: This is not science fiction, this is science fact. We have the tools, we have the technology, to do this all right now.
Bill Whitaker: And you think we can, at some point, inoculate the world against these killer viruses.
Dr. Kayvon Modjarrad: Killer viruses that we haven't seen or even imagined, we'll be protected against."
Pretty incredible stuff!!!
