So how can media can say it may be ready by the end of the year for anti-viral? I am sure it will need to go through some medical trial and as we have millions of patients, couldn't we just administer to some patients asap so we can get some results and get it approved? The effect of the...

I think 12 month's protection should be sufficient and I am really hoping that with the roll out of AstraZeneca vaccine we can resume international travel as soon as possible later this year. I believe CEOs have insider information which they will be liable if they cannot provide a truthful...

I would like to know why not? We have operation Warp Speed, in addition this is from the mouth of the CEO, and Moderna's vaccine will be available early 2021, so I don't understand why we will not have a vaccine then.

I think October is possibly going to be the earliest time when some tourists are allowed to go back. The thing is that Coronavirus seems is getting worse than the initial wave, some European countries and USA are seeing a potential second wave coming, and even back at home, we are seeing second...

Very likely the government would need to see the curve of the world flattening before we can travel overseas again. I don't even know when we will be able to go back to Hong Kong to see my parents 😭

Breaking News: NT to reopen its internal borders on 17th July Source: The Guardian

https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/health-problems/only-68-per-cent-of-australians-would-get-a-covid19-vaccine-if-it-was-available-a-survey-has-found/news-story/67a760fe18624771a99b3a5bba2852d9 News Limited actually asked my question and only 68% said yes!

Oh no! I am sure the business sector, the HE sector as well as Australian migrants would not be happy about this as that means we are stuck in this country for another year. I sincerely hope the development of vaccine would defeat Birmingham's word today and that we can open the border to more...

I think the message has been quite clear where the States will consider opening their borders in July. Today is 16th of June 2020, so it will appear to be reasonable that some states do not open their borders at this moment.

https://7news.com.au/the-morning-show/travel-bubble-destinations-may-include-south-korea-and-japan-soon-but-not-the-united-states-c-1101953 Some more updates from 7News. I am glad that Hong Kong and Singapore is in the list of 'safe' countries, and I hope that after the success of Sydney -...

Somewhat I am hoping through the race for a vaccine we will be able to find a cure to reduce the severity of the disease to existing patients to just a flu, and we can just live with it. Then we can buy more time to prepare a vaccine which will prevent this disease altogether.

Yet having said that there's been reports that Coronavirus vaccine may only reduce the severity of the disease, not to prevent it: https://www.smh.com.au/business/the-economy/the-first-covid-19-vaccines-may-not-prevent-infection-with-coronavirus-20200616-p552yy.html Do you think this is enough...

I wonder whether the countries listed in Singapore's Ministry of Health website would indicate that these are the list of countries they would like to form travel bubble with?

It seems that the government will make 2 channels of exemptions to the travel ban, according to the Australian reported yesterday: 1. Business Travellers/International Students who will carry 'international benefit' 2. Countries who are trusted and COVID safe for eg. NZ. So I really hope that...

https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/1934696/foreigners-to-be-allowed-in Thailand is considering allowing some foreigners to return to the country to boost tourism. I really hope this can happen soon so that we will be able to return to normality.

The problem is you cannot force people to vaccinate to enter or leave the country, as I think the initial stage of Coronavirus vaccine is scarce, I don't think it can be widely available to many people which I believe we should start vaccinate with high risk group (the elderly) first before to...

I would say until they have flattened out the curve and actually have effective policies to stop Coronavirus from spreading widely like they are currently at the moment, I don't think travelling to Indonesia is actually viable at this stage.

I wouldn't say the vaccine will be freely available in September, but according to reports I am hopeful that some vaccines will go through mature stages of Phase 3 testing by then which will allow us to resume some international travel. For a vaccine to be widely available, think we will need to...
