Vaccine. From "vacca", Latin for "a cow". Because of the discovery and history of vaccination.

I've had my doubts about ever having an effective vaccine and, despite the upbeat messages I keep hearing on the news from time to time, I still do. Coronaviruses are notoriously bad to develop a vaccine for. Of the 7 known human coronaviruses, exactly zero have a vaccine.

I suppose it depends on how you define "effective". If you put up with having to get a jab every 3 or 6 months, then, maybe...
