Most likely yes I presume. Not only are many countries still in full or partial lockdown, the virus has mutated in a even faster spreader. It will probably take full 2021 to get everyone a vaccine, if, the Facebook anti science madness doesn't gain anymore traction with large groups of people turning into anivaxxers... then we're in this for another few years...Xwang wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 5:39 pmAccording to this:

That is from October which is a lifetime ago as covid is concerned. Besides, as long as it keeps peole alive and does not flood ICE what does it matter?Zynerji wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 6:15 pmAttacking anti-vaxxers...Jolle wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 5:57 pmMost likely yes I presume.

Even this guy says it's not a cure, just a symptom suppressor...

I know the rules, but as a medical professional I feel the need to dispute this in a factual way. While I don't know what vaccines he was talking about or how those particular ones work, I can speak a little about the 2 that are being rolled out already in the UK.Zynerji wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 6:15 pmAttacking anti-vaxxers...Jolle wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 5:57 pmMost likely yes I presume.

I think there will be more problems than just getting the drivers vaccinated.Just_a_fan wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 7:13 pmI can see the virus causing some issues unless F1 gets all of the teams vaccinated over the winter. If not, we could see a driver missing a race or two. Whether it will cause a race to be DNS? Tricky question. I could see Australia being cancelled again if they have a flair up.
It's going to be a long season at 22-23 races so anyone missing a race will be less disadvantaged than this year.
