True & True
I'm reluctant to fact check using the US CDC (see later *), but:
No vaccine for MERS claim:
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/mers/faq.html
"Currently, there is no vaccine available to protect against MERS."
@SARS, also true, there is no vaccine
https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3051853/there-was-no-vaccine-sars-or-mers-will-there-be-one-new
So yes, SARS and MERS are controlled by stopping transmission. We do not use vaccines for these and do not use an app.

If you wear a surgical mask, you scratch your nose through your mask. No need to beat yourself up with stinky oils, or leave that nose unscratched!
* CDC US data is tainted now. Trump appointed a deceiver to mash their data and advice up.
This turd with the smile here:
https://www.businessinsider.com/white-house-economic-adviser-hassett-model-coronavirus-deaths-zero-10-days-2020-5
"White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett helped devise a "cubic model" that forecasted coronavirus deaths hitting zero by May 15. It immediately sparked a massive backlash among economists when the model was posted Tuesday on the Twitter account for the Council of Economic Advisors."
He fitted a curve that gave him the result he'd been asked to deliver, and that was used to get States to open up their quarantines before they'd tackled community spread. Effectively ensuring a second wave of death in the USA. Just in time for the election.
A lie that kills people, served up with a big grin. Twat.
