I'm guessing you haven't talked to many adjuncts. The academic life is far from easy for most these days. See here for an example. https://www.theatlantic.com/education/archive/2019/04/adjunc...

Did you read the article referenced? If not, then I don't see how you have no basis for saying this is completely false. If you did read it, then can you explain how you square your bald assertion with the facts presented in the articl

You need about 30 ug of MRNA vaccine. For Regeneron the dosage is an initial dose of 600 mg followed by 300 mg every other week. Pfizer is $19.50/dose. Moderna is $15/dose. Regeneron is $2100/dose. And that's with the US

Rationed for the usual reason because it's hard to make and there isn't enough to go around. That's a usual problem with monoclonal antibodies. That's also the reason they tend to be so expensive. Also if they aren'

Not to mention at this point zero evidence there's any connection between those alleged deaths and any vaccine. After all, it's a regular thing for people to die of heart disease.

The vaccine does slow the rate of infection even Delta, but 59.9% is the current percentage of fully vaccinated in Israel and that's good but it's far from everyone. Very far given the infectiousness of Delta.
