Name a single vaccine in history that has the type of hidden long term side effect you are worried about. Hidden and long term defined as something that happened only after 6 months from taking the vaccine and is significant.

So would you encourage people not get vaccinated and just take vitamin D? Do you believe the evidence for their effectiveness is equal?

There are 4 tiny RCTs with split results. There is one medium sized almost randomized trial that shows a strong result. I'm not interested in small retrospective studies. There are 50 retrospective studies that show HCQ is an amazing

There is a large difference in saying vitamin D is a "potent inhibitor" of COVID, and seeing that there is a correlation between people with normal levels of vitamin D and less severe COVID. Though even still the study results ar

You are the one who is calling something that is obviously safe, not safe. You think you are smarter and more thoughtful about this than the experts who debated it in the open for hours upon hours to decide it was safe and should be availab

How do the ethical calculations stack up when we account for the hundreds of thousands of lives saved? Regardless of whether you think the vaccines are safe, they are quite clearly effective.

Nothing is perfectly safe. All the vaccines you have taken have side effects. So does the food you eat and the Sun exposure you get. The current data we have shows the vaccines are very safe to a high degree of certainty. If you had crea

Tesla is the absolute world leader in battery manufacturing. A lot of people are betting on that as well. Tesla has a lot of things going for it if you project what we are going to need in the future. I’m not saying it is a good/bad

The OP said it was hard to find the data and documents. I searched for “fda vaccine pfizer documents” and the 2nd link is the FDA page with every document and study that was reviewed for approval. The information is not hard to find. Yes,

The vaccines did not skip any safety tests, they just compressed the schedule because millions of people were dying of a preventable disease. At this point hundreds of millions of people have taken the various vaccines. There clearly are n

Based on the information provided it seems highly unlikely the OP had covid. It isn't impossible but the lack of antibodies is just one further data point. Most people who recover have positive antibody tests.

The reason people care is because balls in play are hitting historic lows and to many that is making baseball less exciting, and the league is worried about the fans losing interest. This particular form of manipulating the ball is just too

Pitchers are putting the substance on every ball. Nearly all strikeouts are caught directly by the catcher, and the 3rd strike is the hardest to get, so it would be a very good sample indeed.

Yes I don’t understand how ‘going into the office’ means ‘giving your life to the company’. Frankly I find it easier to separate work and home when there is an office.

The first death in the U.S. was only discovered at least a month later, and this is long after we knew about the existence of the virus. In China before there was a huge outbreak there is absolutely no way you can expect a small number of c

A lot of emerging viruses are well adapted to humans… that’s why become outbreaks. How can you judge what level of adaption is expected vs unexpected in a virus. Most virologists say the way this virus works is unlike anything they’ve seen

Was every other emerging virus also created in a lab? SARS? MERS? Influenza? Polio? The highest probability is this virus originated like every other virus in history.
