With as little as is known about this, y'all are pretty authoritative. We don't know if you develop immunity after having it, seems that would be important in a conversation about development of a vaccine. Common cold, is that the sort of thing you can have more than once? I am guessing yes, or they come up with a different name for it. I am inclined to think we will get this more than once, or it mutates to get past the immune system down the road.
Bottom line is there are folks messing around with viruses and are not being as meticulous as they should be with their lab practices. Eventually they come up with a genie that can't be stopped, and civilization goes back to the monkeys, like in Planet of the Apes.

We used to go the other direction on this sort of deal
