This is an interesting notion I hadn't considered at all, you may be on to something there.

With three doses, the mice remained protected from SARS-CoV-2 and other coronaviruses for at least three months.

Big pharma whips out their calculator, their eyes grow larger and larger as they excitedly do the math.

Evolution will happen whether we want it or not and new strains will appear from time to time, just like we've seen with every virus ever known. But if you still think that's what happened, we'd love to see your evidence of this new strain being man-made.

Exactly. Our immune system is excellent but its immune cell exploration space is on the order of 10^11 potential receptors.

So since RNA viruses in particular can mutate so rapidly, we just use our brains to reduce that by 10+ orders of magnitude and target the antigens we want directly. The end result is the same, biotech is just smarter.

Stanford has a constant habit of lying in press releases. Don’t bother reading what they publish until someone else reproduces their work.

Doesn't it make more sense to view this as something you'd only apply to yourself in the winter months and whenever there's a sporadic uptick in respiratory diseases in your area, though?

crazy shit man.

i just heard about a nasal spray technology that was recently developed for a BCI (body computer interface) using conductive nano particles that can pass the blood brain barrier.

not sure how it works, but just that it apparantly exists.

like nasal spray neuralink.

not saying this is related or anything, besides having the same delivery system.

crazy times we live in.

I am afraid of needles too but that didn't stop me from getting the vaccine because I'm more afraid of fucking dying.

Got any examples? Honestly curious. If you think Chappelle is worse or equivalent to the trump admin, that's gonna be a tough sell...

There are tons of articles out there about his jokes punching down at various groups, because it's an ongoing problem and he just doubles down if anyone complains.

"Satire is meant to ridicule power. If you are laughing at people who are hurting, it’s not satire, it’s bullying." - Sir Terry Prachett

And I never said he was as bad as anyone in the Trump admin, I just said I couldn't respect him any more than them. He sits in a place of immense privilege and punches down at people who are struggling. He's in the same company as them.
