So you’re saying that scientists would probably say it’s as safe as GMO food?

That should speed up vaccinations. Requiring proof of citizenship before each shot.

Eh, I wouldn’t say it’s quite that safe. Synthetic lipids are riskier than GMO foods, but once they’ve shown they can be readily metabolized, there’s nothing else to worry about. There isn’t anything that would suggest these lipids are in any way difficult to metabolize. Carbon-carbon double bonds can be (such as those in trans fats), especially in the context of aromatic rings, but these molecules have none of those.

I think we all know that they will only require certain folks to prove anything

Longtime friend of mine finally caught it, he works in auto manufacturing and been working at the plant all year, over the last few months he’s had to get tested like 5 times because of being exposed to other pozzs. Was feeling bad last couple days and finally pozzed today. No telling who he infected or infected him cuz he said tons of people in and out of the plant and people not wearing masks and such. He was but as I told him that probably wasn’t enough In that environment. He’s fairly overweight too, hopefully makes it through ok.

F this guy and his speculation. Talking about making up a theory and saying there is no disproof of it, or at least rejecting and questioning the motives of those that do. Well it sounds plausible.

Might as well be Q.

Apparently, INTERPOL sent out a warning last month about organized crime targeting the vaccine?

Apologies if this is insensitive to this thread. Is it delusional of me to think it’s possible that I could travel to Japan in September of this year? They have $485 1 stop flights to Tokyo on American Airlines. Just an absolute insane deal. Reading through the airlines policies and it looks like I could cancel for future credit if needed with no fees.

Good thing that undocumented people can’t catch or spread the disease.

Just looked up this Nebraska governor.

Does he remind anyone else of this guy?:

TIL I look a fair amount like the governor of Nebraska. And the stonks guy I guess.

If you’re asking will you be vaccinated by then, then the answer is almost certainly yes.

It is really really hard to get people to agree to stricter restrictions. It is impossible to get people to agree to stricter restrictions during vaccine rollouts.

I was assured this weekend this is as good as we can possibly do and the US is the world leader in vaccine distribution.

*so far.
