Wow, you're so hilarious. I recall you bragging about tax payers paying for your phd or something not that long ago. I also remember you saying studies in Israel showed that vaccinated people didn't spread the wuhan flu when I complained about the local NBA team letting the vax'd have relaxed rules in the arena. BTW science man, still wearing your mask in public or around the unvax'd?

Why thank you sir.
I don't recall when that was, but interesting comparison. My research is indeed, in part, federally funded. I think the general idea there is that the US economy (and DoD in turn) benefit from being good at science and engineering at a rate of $3-5 for every $1 spent. Same reason non-classified DoE (national) labs exist. If there were a way to achieve the same result at 100x lower cost I would certainly advocate for it instead.
Correct. They did say that, they still do, but they did back then as well. Was this pointing out that vaccinated individuals are able to spread the delta variant compared to wild-type or alpha? Now there's a question, why isn't it the london or the delhi flu now?
Brb changing my forum signature.
In may/june? No. Now? Yes, depending on location (including in lab with vaccinated colleagues). Why? Cause people with MDs and PhDs in infectious disease told me it was the best course of action.

Gov't spending MAGICALLY pays itself back. That's a good one. Afghanistan is a really good example where all those trillions of taxpayer dollars just trickled down to the poor. Nope, no waste / fraud / abuse in government. At least when I waste money, it's MY choice or my fault. Those yahoos burning Benjamins to keep warm never pay for anything themselves.

@z31maniac Someone definitely isn't getting it. Being unvaccinated doesn't = getting intubated if you get Covid. At all. Zero,
Also, you sound as if you are so calm and comfortable with people dying in a hospital but at the same point you are for mask mandates and forcing the vaccine on unwilling people. You're fine with people disagreeing with you and dying, but not fine with people disagreeing with you and being alive. What kind of dark, evil person are you that your value system works like this?

I like how you jump to conclusions to attempt a lame ad hominem....are you practicing running for office?
2. Where did I stay I was for mask mandates or forced vaccinations? Previously I said, if it's the policy of a business or event to wear a mask, I will. Otherwise, I don't.

I will say honestly, I think the side effects of fever/chills/etc, has been dramatically overblown. Everyone I work with used it as an excuse to take two days off. Even the next day my boss was like, "You don't have a fever or anything?" Even my fiance who has an auto-immune disorder and is on two separate drugs for it felt "a little tired" the day after her 2nd injection. And nothing after her third.
Nope, I feel fine. I'm sorry you all have weak immune systems.
I'm assuming raw ******* dirty hoors and lots of booze account for basically never getting sick.
