What bothers me is that every single good news coming from science has the same old "but".
>It will still take a long time before these experiments lead to the first human trials
And we'll never hear from them again. You betcha!
- zionic 6y agoLook up when the electron was discovered, and how long electronics took to become a thing.
- layoutIfNeeded 6y agoActually, electronics were already in widespread use way before the discovery of the electron by Thomson in 1897... What you probably meant is the discovery of electricity.
- MattGaiser 6y agoIsn't this just the reality of science? A lot of things seem promising and then turn out to be duds?
- enriquto 6y agoWould you prefer that only 100% finished and completed science is communicated to you? It's nice to see the evolution of knowledge; and since it is a long process, most of the reports will be about incomplete stuff. Regarding such a common virus like herpes, I'm sure you'll hear from it very soon again!
- symlinkk 6y agoActually, yeah I would prefer that, instead of constantly hearing about things that never come to fruition and eventually tuning them out. It’s like the boy who cried wolf
- whatshisface 6y agoWell, that's easy, just quit reading science news articles and watch for new items on shelves, or in commercials.
- hannob 6y agoIt's often the case. It's not always the case. I remember the stories during the summer. "mRNA is promising, but there never was an mRNA vaccine that made it to the market. Nobody knows if it'll work." Well, it does work. Amazingly so.
- FeeJai 6y agoYes, because in the political desire to solve the pandemic they lifted lots of regulation that make the approval of new medicines prohibitively expensive
- call_me_dana 6y agoAnd for the hundreds that have died from them already? I mean, not died from them. I mean died days to weeks after. They’re uhm, completely unrelated! Would their families also agree that they work amazingly so?
- pertymcpert 6y agoWhat are you on about? The vaccines haven’t killed anyone.
- call_me_dana 6y agoHuh? Here’s one report out of thousands https://www.wric.com/health/coronavirus/man-in-70s-collapses-dies-after-getting-covid-vaccine-in-ny-officials-saw-no-sign-of-allergic-reaction/ https://www.wric.com/health/coronavirus/man-in-70s-collapses... So you can stop saying that now.
- pertymcpert 6y agoThat didn't say the vaccine killed him.
- dudeithinkBLM 6y agoHoo boy... Someone only watches MSM for their news.
- jjxx1 6y agothat's not true. We will hear from them again. Read my reply to the previous comments
