The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

“ If you wish a response move this to the Covid forum.“ Do you have any interest in the origins of Covid? Any interest if the Covid vaccine was proven safe and effective? Any interest if team Biden pressured social media to censor the news and control the narrative? Like most of the experts and usual suspects here, u can’t handle or process the facts and the truth. Stay in your comfort zone and carry on


I have an academic interest in the origins of covid, and since there has been no credible advancement in a while, I just see Trump making a ploy to your conspiracy bone. It's a good distraction from the fact he screwed up the initial response badly, and he is screwing up the government and the economy and the problems created will take decades to repair, and some can't be repaired. First - you'd have to set criteria as to what is safe and effective. Trials are done to see if any major problems show up. Then the initial uses by the general public are big trials, where they are looking for major problems. You should know this. Why does it appear that you don't know this?

I have an interest that the media not circulate misinformation during a pandemic and that is one of the few times where I consider suppression of misinfo as a service to the general public. Decry all you want - you kill people. Medical misinfo kills, hurts, and maims every year. HCL, you defend misinfo and people die because of it. By the time I caught covid, my chances of getting long covid were very low and I'm grateful for that.

The word is out some people need an additional MMR. Measles has killed 3. Why are we stopping research into TB?
