When you are cutting and pasting RNA, it is very much like writing computer code. It looks okay, seems to work consistently, but an edge case 10 years down the road may be catastrophic.



So in other words, Trump's Moon Shot to create the vaccine in the first place was great, but Biden actually using it was reckless because it hadn't been tested long enough. A thought (if you want to call any assemblage of words that name) that ignores the fact that scientists have been researching and testing RNA vaccines since the 1990s and preparing to make one for novel coronaviruses for at least three or four years before this showed up.

I support the rights of business owners to do pretty much as they wish so long as safety threat is minimized based on the available science.

That means masks are never required unless working around hazardous material which demand the use of certain PPE.


IOW, they get to make the call regarding what is best for their business as long as you agree with it. Which means you don't think that they get to make the call. They are directly answerable only to government limitations and their own business judgment, indirectly to customers via their reputation.

You go on and on about the mainstream getting the science wrong. Did it ever occur to you that a business might agree with you wrt masks but require them anyway because they are afraid of losing employees and business? It doesn't matter whether they're right on the science. They make business decisions for the environment they're in.
