The study I’ve linked above should be a couple of months in by now, sooner or later we will a conclusive answer, but if I had an elderly relative in a home that didn’t have health conditions precluding then from taking something that may protect them, I’d want them on it, even if only during the active outbreak in the facility.
Once proven that's a different kettle of fish. And even then it needs time in the field.

Happy for you to be first though. Until the full green light is given people are wasting their energy even thinking about it unless they want to put their hand up to be part of the trial to speed the process up.

Even when the vaccine comes out I am happy to hang back in the line (Im a vaccer before anyone starts that, so are all my kids).

Mask mandate should have been done with the first wave if you go into public, its not hard and you dont even have to inject your body.

with any issue there is no silver bullet.
