Right. You are skeptical. Fine. But if you want to convince others, you need to have actual facts and not a lot of handwaving. Which is not really persuasive. Especially when it is a partisan issue.

A good synopsis of the Covid Vaccination issue. Combjelly seems to be a unaware of the time scales involved.

Using his own link as reference. It was more then 4 years between the breakthrough when the Polio Virus was first isolated in a Lab and the development of a practical vaccine. Completely different risk profile too, as you point out.

The whole tone of that advancement in human health by a vaccine introduction was different too.

"Six pharmaceutical companies were licensed to produce IPV, and Salk did not profit from sharing the formulation or production processes.

In a 1955 interview, when asked who owned the patent for IPV, he replied: “Well, the people, I would say. There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?


Covid was all about the economic impacts of one sort or another. A lot of small businesses were driven out of existence by prepared and malevolent policy imposed on the people.

Great post. Good summary of the timeline. Never forget what "they" did to society. And its mindboggling some folks still defend it
