In reply to the discussion: If Russia already has a vaccine for COVID-19, then they're probably responsible [View all]Initech

The virus doesn't have to be synthetic; Trump is undeniably amplifying the pandemic.

There's already been a number of vaccines cooked up for Cap'n Trumps. We don't know if they work.
