The 2018 flu vaccine was only 25% effective. How can Covid-19 vaccine be any better? - Newcomber - 04-25-2020

Found this interesting article yesterday:

The 2018 flu vaccine was only 25% effective. But we are being led to believe that a covid19 vaccine will be 100% effective before its even been invented.

Article was on culturechronicles

Here's the article.

I'm at a loss as to why medical experts from around the globe, cannot provide a vaccine for (what seems to be) simply a virus similar to the seasonal flu.

that's what I thought of as well, although I believe the process of developing vaccines usually comes from a rigorous form of testing and clinical trials plus the fact that they need to pend it a little bit for profit reasons.
