    I can't believe, after all this time, people still need this link explaining it's impossible for mRNA to somehow incorporate into a person's DNA and cause cancer! That someone with a medical degree and in a position of public health doesn't understand 300 level biology courses is absolutely crazy. DNA is an incredibly stable molecule, and everything organic has mRNA, including any fruit, veggie, or piece of meat you eat. If mRNA could somehow go rogue and alter DNA, we'd be in trouble every time we ate! Even Dr. Offit knows it's simply not possible for mRNA vaccines to alter DNA.

    No virus + staggering excess mortality cries out for an explanation.

    What actual numbers/data are you using to arrive at this conclusion?

    OMG, you mean he’s had COVID not only once, but twice and he’s still around to post??? There’s no way. He should be dead by now.

    You go right on ahead and get all the jabs you want. Just don’t ask or expect others to join you.

    My theory on why so many octogenarians with comorbidities died: because they were octogenarians with comorbidities.

    Another fact filled post. Since about 80% of Americans took a covid vaccination and about 70% are fully vaccinated, it seems the large majority of sensible intelligent Americans have decided to join. LOL

    Collins was reportedly the tyrant largely responsible for demonizing the epidemiologists that spearheaded the Great Barrington Declaration.

    Though virus believers, their recommendations, if adopted, would likely have been much less destructive and killed far fewer by the way of collateral damage.

    We have known from the Diamond Princess/Italy/New York who is at risk from the primary source data. Now you have been sold a bill of goods to get on a routine covid shot lol. But the same group that was at risk at the beginning of 2020 is the same group that is at risk today. Thankfully the disease is not as dangerous from treatment to just less harmful.

    I was actually starting to have some empathy for this POS until I saw the callous “better late than never”.

    Say what you will about DeSantis, but the task force he assembled came from broad backgrounds. I know one of the members very well. DeSantis listened to all (and the medical people were just like Collins and the even bigger POS Fauci.

    Regardless, after listening to all got them to work together to devise a plan to reduce transmission (we were never going to stop it completely) and focus resources on the most vulnerable for treatment, and get as many people’s lives back to normal as soon as possible.

    Collins and his ilk did a grave disservice to the public with heavy handed, one size fits all policies that hurt more people than they helped. Sorry, but I’m not ready to forgive and forget. My guess is that if they got a do-over, Collin’s , Fauci and all of their teams would likely not change much.

    When you give small people like this a little power, they typically abuse it. That happened here. They were very unprofessional and I sincerely hope that history records them that way. Maybe this article is a start in that direction.

    Can you ever be fully vaccinated ? According to the schedule I’m probably behind by dozens.

    It's a term that is beyond the rudimentary intellect of most cultists but Google :" meaning of fully vaccinated". LOL
