A lot of ad hominem and hysterics, for someone who continuously dances around the very simple question. What is your prediction for the effectiveness of a single dose regime?
Because if it's over 50%, then the math is very simple. First doses must go first. Here's my simple proposal: I bet you $500 that the first peer-reviewed study to specifically test one-dose mRNA Covid-19 vaccines finds at least 50% effectiveness.
Talk is cheap, and I'm sure you get a lot of upvotes on Reddit and Twitter by sprouting some "Follow the Science" hashtag. But actual people's lives are on the line, so if you won't even risk a little bit of money on your beliefs, stop risking people's lives.
