https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-biden-reactions-pfizer-coronavirus-vaccine-progress Vaccine looks like it works. Of course its announced a few days after the election. I'm sure that was a 'co-incidence'. Anyway the stock market is going nuts, heaps of my stocks are up. Alas my stocks in...

Apparently Chinese doctors said that the tipping point came when he was asked if he would vote for Trump or Joe Biden and he couldn't decide...

*looks into camera* Its a cure for what ails ya! 😄

There are thousands and thousands of people in the trials worldwide. Statistically speaking, some of them will die. Considering that they didn't even pause the trial I'd say that his death is unrelated to his participation in the trial and the article itself mentions that he was possibly part...

The UK police REALLY need to hire a more competent social media officer.

Joking aside 😄 The article points out that its a characteristic carried by 16% of Europeans but 50% of South Asians which was surprising. I would have thought that Europeans would carry the characteristic more given that Neanderthals died out in Europe last.

Eh. So long as the vaccine doesn't actively really hurt people then there's nothing lost from trying, you can always tinker or improve or make a better vaccine later. In that case (it not causing significant harm) then either it works or it doesn't. If this was WWII they'd be pulling out all...

https://www.foxnews.com/world/russia-registers-virus-vaccine-putins-daughter-given-it Well Putin is claiming that Russia has a working vaccine and that his daughter has been innoculated with it. Claims it should be able to innoculate someone for two years. They're apparently still doing 'Phase...

Between nefarious companies co-operating in a conspiracy (an incompetent one started by some random hack doctor) trying to temporarily increase share values in a company which makes a rival product only profitable in developed countries by dissing a cheaper rival. And news services just jumping...

Gilead doesn't control the media.

If it was politically motivated then it is worse than that. Using faked data to short circuit research into a potential treatment for a disease that is killing thousands because 'dRumPh! bespeaks something more sinister. And I too am unsurprised.

Pneumonia (the leading cause of which is influenza) damages lung tissue as well. Damages more lung tissue in more people and will continue to do so into the future. Influenza can also cause heart damage through things like myocarditis. The only thing this silly virus has over the flu is that it...

Great, got a new bullshit law saying you can't mingle in groups larger than two people. But you can still go to school, go to work in essential industries and mix with your families. As if I'd want to hang out with my family, at least I get to choose my friends. 😄

China not testing people anymore makes sense if it's reached almost complete saturation. Something we will get to eventually as well though we are trying to slow it down. They've given up on containment or slowing it down as that's pointless and a waste of resources and are now focussed on...

Human life isn't 'priceless'. Economics have real world impacts too. Just like with flu and everything else we're eventually going to have to reach a point where we're content to take the hit each year and get on with life. With normal seasonal flu it's between 290,000 and 640,000 per year...

The 'lethality' rate for covid-19 is so overblown it isn't funny. Yet the media keeps reporting on it. 'Confirmed cases' are most likely the vast minority of the actual cases that have occurred. Most people probably wouldn't report it, many would not even have realised that they had had it. So...

And when it actually reaches anywhere near the destructiveness (as in actual fatalities) of a bad flu season... you let me know, okay?(y)

Heres a wacky thought, what if we just isolated the people who are actually at serious risk from the new virus? (unlike the vast majority of us who aren't) So we can just quarantine all the old, infants and already immuno suppressed people. It would be less of a hit to the economy, the vast...

No. I won't. 😄 The flu kills hundreds of thousands if not millions of people a year (in the same demographics) and we're not giving that even 10% of the importance of this bullshit. The flu is also an annoyance for me. But people aren't demanding whole aspects of life come to a halt because of...
