Funny, that the author shows two hospitals in Barcelona. To answer the question, you definitely want to be in the "ugly" one. For starters, the nice modernist building is not a hospital anymore. And partly due to the reason of arc

The scenarios described are concerning the introduction of a dog into the environment, where there are people with known allergies. How would it look the other way around? Is there one scenario, where the allergic persons don't have to

I don't think, that was the point. It was having to do things on the clock with unfamiliar equipment. I'm not sure that under those circumstances anyone is predisposed to like things (laptop, company...)

The point of "because you're white" is, you have no personal experience in that matter. Despite an obvious lack of expertise, privileged people (and I consider me part of that group) feel that their opinion is of at least equ

That's a false equivalence. We are not talking about not testing vaccines at all or not, but how. You are simply ignoring the responsibility of the vaccine maker of potentially not going through the adequate steps. A better equivalence
