Vaccines aren’t cures either they are preventive measures taken before exposure. Unless one serves in the military and is destined to spend time in an affected area the majority of the world population will not be inoculated against any specific diseases or viruses.

Just like getting a flu shot every year to protect from getting it the CDC has to throw a dart at the influenza dart board months before and hope they hit the right strain predicted to be most prevalent. So the proper vaccine will be formulated and stockpiled for distribution.

The only likely people to get inoculated are healthcare professionals and those susceptible to become hosts. So anyone who wins the race to produce a viable and tested anti-virus vaccine...good job.
