    I'm hearing they are advising people to only get Moderna vaccine here. Reports are moving fast! I would say after all the Military folks get their vaccine, they will make N95 mask mandatory.

    That means there are that many more naturally vaccinated people. That's a success.

    Increasingly people are catching it a second time... This is not a 'one and done' virus...

    Hopefully this is their 2nd or 3rd time catching it so they can be positive super spreaders, meaning they will carry a weaker strand of the virus when they spread it next.

    I wonder if cave men and women wore masks the first time the common cold rolled through...

    you time warp the average 25 y0 from today into the paleolithic era and they don't make it 72 hours.

    My point was is that viruses, especially respiratory viruses have very predictable evolutionary arc- they start out really bad, infect and kill a lot of people fast, but then face an evolutionary dilemma - either kill a real big crapload of people quick and die out quickly; or they evolve to become a cyclical deal where it doesn't do much more than make you feel under the weather, but not bad enough to keep you bed ridden and quarantined. Viruses want you feeling well enough to mingle so they can infect other hosts. You can't mingle if you are really sick or, you know, dead.

    Yeah, but those virus were created by nature back then, covid was engineered correct? So how does an engineered virus mutate? I guess will find out

    Just remember, Noah was a conspiracy theorist until it started to rain.
