Yeah, so probably 6-12 months for a vaccine, and in the meantime fluctuating levels of continuing lockdown across the world to help health systems.
Undoubtedly better than 8000,000 dying in the UK alone, but definitely makes me wonder why people are talking about in terms of weeks rather than months.
Edit: Could some form of routine mass testing feasibly help in the mean time (along the lines of what's attributed to the success in Korea)? Allow greater levels of normality because flare ups are getting nipped in the bud earlier - or are all sorts of restrictions required for it to work?
