    Bat polio or lab polio. Don’t sit there peeing your knickers. Pick a side.

    You just tried to make a joke out of a dangerous situation. If someone you care about gets polio, you won't joke anymore. Of course, it's only funny when it does not affect you, right? Do you have any moral foundation other than being for whatever bothers Democrats and being against whatever Democrats support, and then dismiss any blame for the bad things that happen due to the support of people like you? You disgrace yourself over and over and over.

    Please do what you feel is right for you... but don't expect us to follow your lead.

    There is NO one size fits all medicine, and... doctor patient "equality" in the realm of drug prescriptions. We are all different and there is no such thing as a mRNA vaccine.

    Not sure this is actually correct. Not when you really think about it. Different doctors might give differing advice because of imperfect information. Individual doctors have differing experiences and different knowledge bases. Doctors are humans, afterall. Sometimes a particular doctor has “better” experience, but even a good doctor may also give suboptimal advice at times or missdiagnose. This is before we even get into the small % of quack doctors that consistently give bad advice.

    In theory, and as of now this is a theoretical world only: if a doctor is always able to act on “perfect information” (like your full genome is mapped, drugs are genetically designed for the individual, lab results are always complete and accurate, perhaps aided by AI analysis) - there would only be 1 optimal course of action for any condition, with any other option being suboptimal or tantamount to malpractice. We aren’t there yet, but there are emerging fields in medicine taking us that direction. AI will likely have a role here in the future.

    Your ignorance is hiding behind your feigned outrage. People are not disease vectors, much as you’d like to find another reason to sow enmity and division among them.

    Polio is not a virus. It emerged as a waste basket term for temporary paralysis. And against the common belief it was never eradicated, but rather lives on, albeit under different names like GBS which, by the way, two people I know got theirs from vaccines as confirmed by their physicians.

    More on polio …

    Flexner and Lewis are credited with transferring polio from a human being to a monkey. What they did …

    A child died supposedly of polio. Bear in mind that polio was, on the surface, temporary paralysis. In any case, they cut out the spinal cord out of the dead child, ground it into sap, injected the sap into a hole in the monkeys head and shot it into his brain.

    A pure case of Isopathy.

    You made a complete fool of yourself with the last two posts thanks to the bizarre, scientifically ignorant, utter nonsensical garbage contained in them. There's nothing else to say because arguing against that type of buffoonery would be the functional equivalent of arguing against someone positing that one plus one equals three.

    Some fat meal worms sautéed in garlic butter should not be disparaged.

    My surmise is that our diets are not as relevant as we think. Studies are all over the place.

    The reason we best so much importance, in the foods we eat, is because we badly want to believe there is something, that one thing that we can do to ensure health and longevity.

    Humans are not designed to be cows. We have a single stomach and don’t do well constrained in a pen

    Humans are omnivores like Grizzlies. We eat what we want and enjoy freedom.

    If people want to be cows, the Grizzly people will fight to protect that right….unless you come for our bacon…in which case it’s going to get ugly.

    You better get to training. I think it's pretty clear @GatorRade is coming to force you to be vegan
