So we got EEE, sloth fever, west nile, lyme disease, mpox, bird flu, and the newest covid variants. Did I miss any?

There are no vaccines to prevent or treat EEE, and experts say that the best way to prevent your risk of infection is to prevent being bitten.

2024, Moderna can literally develop a suitable vaccine in months(production & distribution is harder tho)
