I already have the antibodies (from June), so it seems I won't need that vaccine. Right? Or in other words, my antibodies would almost certainly cover the new variant.

It is difficult to know what sources of information to trust. I already have antibodies, and thought I would be ok for a while. If this is a new strain, how would they know to make a vaccine for it, and how many vaccines will I need each ye

They crammed big engines under the wings in a way that it could really need a new air type certification. This is more like a new plane, with the baggage of the old 737 and without the certification testing for a new plane. Yes it can fly,

"That's why governments will likely not do it." Japan did it. Japan learned from the docking of the Princess cruise there and the results from each passenger. Those results were quite interesting. And death rates by age group

Seems we can agree that it was incompetent to prevent healthy people from seroconverting last summer.

It is useful to look at death rates by age group. Sweden initially made the same mistake as Cuomo in New York by putting known infected people in nursing homes that housed compromised older people. That caused it to spread into and kill a k

The focus on rate of infection, as if that should be minimized, is misplaced. It would be reasonable to protect the vulnerable and focus on allowing healthy people to seroconvert to move the overall population to herd immunity. The virus is

I was also surprised a study was done to write about government policy incentives. Seems obvious. USA has a policy to subsidize corn production. This has led to a huge chemical-doused monocrop, corn syrup in most packaged food, and blending

Yes, it is correct concerning burst energy from capacitors. The #2 heavy equipment manufacturer has a large capacitor in their regenerative excavator (which sees the most sales in Europe, not North America).

One of the qualities of batteries in cars is a place to store energy from regenerative braking. The best numbers for miles per charge are coming from the tech leader in the space (Tesla). The system of storing generated energy is important.

Right. Hydrogen can be used to store energy. Unlike flowing water which may turn a generator, hydrogen isn't a continuing source of generating power.

Great suggestion on learning SQL. Also, learn how to normalize, at least to 3rd normal form. Clean data, enforced in the DB with constraints, makes debugging easier. Consider getting a used Jeep in stock form, and get the shop manual. Metho

Medical imaging like MRI. Put it in a truck trailer and tour the underserved communities. Unfortunately, States have medical device approval hurdles which often explicitly consider competition, and prohibit the economic competition.
