It really is not, he was pushing disproven treatments at the time (hydroxychloroquine) which many people still think is a valid treatment today. It is clear from the data on who is getting vaccinated that folks who voted trump tend to be le

I'll not argue some of the other points you mentioned but it is incorrect to say VP Harris said she would not take a vaccine developed under the previous administration - she said she would not take trump's word on it, but would t

Comorbidities aren't driving deaths/hospitalizations as much as vaccinated/unvaccinated are. Pre-vaccine availability they and age were the largest factors.

In vitro, and studies are underway to determine if it would be effective in people. As such, it is not recommended in any way to use currently to treat or prevent COVID-19, and can be dangerous - as mentioned in the FDA link I shared above.

I imagine folks are taking issue with calling anti-vaxxers a scapegoat when in reality the anti-vaxx ideology is the main driver of hospitalizations and deaths from COVID-19 in the USA today.

Actually, no, there just isn't evidence that ivermectin (or hydroxychloroquine before it) are effective at combatting COVID-19. There is a lot of evidence that the vaccines are good at combatting COVID-19 though. https://www

I don't see this trend in the US at all. Most folks we're hiring now expect $20-30k more than they did pre-COVID. We've had multiple team members leave to make more money and ended up giving a blanket raise to the development

I mostly agree re: the language itself but Compose is a lot more production ready than SwiftUI, unless you're only targeting iOS 14+, or really 15+ SwiftUI has horrendous bugs in each . release of iOS 13 and 14 has plenty of them too.

Nothing in here supports the claim that the DNC kneecapped Bernie. All it shows is that Democrats heavily favored HRC, who also happened to receive many more votes than Bernie (who I voted for) in the primary. This gives more insight into t
