I think it will be the opposite. We really don't have much proof that vaccines reduced transmission. It could be to some extent but how meaningful was that? We also know that some governments but not all governments implemented vaccine

You went from "no doctor" to "not common". It is in the UK in many cases. The reason might be 1) need a higher dose than allowed to sell OTC, 2) get it without paying, especially for elderly, but this practice is frown u

I don't think that vaccine mandates had a significant impact on hospitalization rates. The most people getting hospitalized will be elderly. I already mentioned that vaccine mandates did not significantly increased vaccinate uptake amo

The data shows the opposite: the places with vaccine mandates achieved lower vaccination rates among elderly (most of Europe) than places without them (UK). The data shows that the greatest benefit from vaccination was to elderly and risk g

Only in America... :D But seriously most likely there are laws that allow you do things in emergency and not be prosecuted. In the UK it is called the doctrine of necessity. The example given was that only a doctor is allowed to give an ord

NATO has provided security to the Baltic countries. The only reason that Russia has attacked Ukraine and not Latvia, is because Latvia is in NATO and Ukraine is not. In fact, Russia is suffering big losses in its war in Ukraine. It would ha

I would definitely emphasise the same – do not take the conclusions of this study as a proof to stop antidepressants. First of all, be careful of single studies that may be biased. In this case I don't even know if life in Saudi Arabia

Although I can understand the need to fight money laundering, it is very scary. From the explanation provided by the N26, it is basically that we may sometimes close your account due to error and there is nothing you can do about that. My f

Ukrainians need peace and that can be achieved only when Russia stops this war. Ukrainians will win war, they are already winning in some way and Russians will lose. The desire of Russian troops to fight is very low and at some point they w

I feel extreme sadness and sorrow for all Russians who have to die in this pointless war and wish they were able to know the truth before they were sent to Ukraine.

It is ethically questionable but on the other hand you would want to know that your son is dead and retrieve a body to perform funeral rites. As it is now, Russian army doesn't care about their casualties and do not even try to retriev

The 90s were very chaotic and hard times but the article is exaggeration. Most women (daughters) didn't turn to sex workers, most sons were not drafted to fight in Chechenia. In fact, it was even bigger worry that your son would be sen

Edit button, at least for a limited time, is a good idea. I write with too many embarrassing typos that need to be corrected. But I don't like the idea that you would need to pay for it or some other non-crucial feature. Unfortunately

I cannot speak for other countries but in Ukraine people started protesting by their own will. To allege that it was due to foreign influence is to deny Ukrainians of their agency. Let's not believe this Russian propaganda that Ukraine

When there's will, there's a way. Poland who was reluctant to take any so-called refugees before, now took over 2 million Ukrainians. Germany really need to show solidarity on this and one way is to make sure for them that the EU

Of course, but has anything like that happened in this case? My understanding is that getting a year's dose in an hour normally is not sufficient for that. The biggest risk was ingesting Cs-137 and other radioactive isotopes that would

In other words, Putin is predicting that Russia is going to lose its importance. I know it is sad for him but I just don't understand why he wants to fasten this process by unsuccessful invasion in Ukraine?

It's a good thing. Ukraine needs help at this time and internet access is very crucial, especially in occupied areas and those places where the regular internet access is lost.

Why is it even a question? We already know that covid vaccine does not protect from infection. It reduces chance of severe disease and death however, therefore it is a good deal. Also, some countries failed to fully vaccinate all elderly wh

The end result will be that Ukraine will retain their statehood albeit with some possible loss of eastern regions. It will join the EU eventually. Ukrainians have made this choice and they are living by it. We need to help Ukraine to minimi

I agree with this and the tragic war in Ukraine is something that we should all be very much against. And yet Google itself gave instructions to Russian translators avoid translating war in Ukraine as a war[1]. Their defence is probably doi
