I did, apparently we drew different conclusions.
Yeah dude, look at the data and do the math. You chances of getting heart inflammation (that may not even be long term or lethal) IF YOU ARE YOUNGER THAN 30, is less than 1 in 100,000. You risk of other complications from catching COVID are much higher than that.
Listen, I donât mean to be a dick, but statistical analysis and probability is very hard for the majority of people to grasp. Unless anyone has done significant coursework and applied research using statistical and probability methods, they simply do not know how to evaluate raw data and risk data. Therein lies the problem of trying to convince the public of health data. The health data is simply incomprehensible to 90-99% of the public.
With that said, itâs your free choice to decide what to do with your life. I would just strongly recommend the vaccine, which I myself have taken. I am fortunate to be in a position where I have professional familiarity with stats, probability, molecular biology, and human physiology to make a more informed decision than most. Based off my knowledge and experience, and having read some of the studies on safety and efficacy myself, I am happy to have taken the vaccine and strongly recommend others do so. Thatâs all.

Please nobody do this to dose themselves. People have gotten sick and died from trying to self medicate for all sorts of different treatments during covid.
AT LEAST find a physician who can guide you.
[Heck, even I advocated for a potential treatment for covid that was a generic drug easily available, and had lots of molecular biology in vitro studies, plus some animal studies, that supported itâs effectiveness agains sars-cov-2. Iâm not going to share it here, but it wasnât HCQ or Ivermectin. It actually has better data than EITHER of those but wasnât widely known outside of the scientific community. There are ongoing human clinical trials for it and very little data are in yet, but guess what, itâ doesnât seem to work anyway in actual humans with Sars-cov-2 
Thatâs just the way research goes sometimes. ]

kids can only spread it for up to 14 days each. get outta here are you a teacher? teachers are anti science. give all the kids covid, then 14 days later FIRE any teacher who requests kids wear a mask. teachers putting masks on kids is ridiculous.

every normal disease is blamed on covid. Kids got kawaski disease and made news- drs claimed theve nevver seen this before- WHOA COVID! kawasaki rates were actually low, but its rare so any dr treating it probably hasnt seen it before. it was on every fake news but they didnt ever follow up on what normal rates of the syndrome are, i had to research it to see that its more fake news about covid. https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/ summary= kawasaki isnt een spread by air. science???

Iâm a scientist, not a teacher. Well, I did do some teaching to pre-med college students during my 6 years of academic graduate work and research in molecular cell biology and physiology. The subjects I taught were human physiology, microbiology, cell biology, and neuroscience.
Youâre welcome to your opinions, but frankly if you havenât done any molecular biology or relevant medical research, I donât give a shit about your opinions about medicine or biology. Same goes to anyone else really. Donât take it personally.

I was rude- I get pissy, i apologize. I did make opinions but whats your covid science that I can learn from. I always wanna learn. you can summarize if its technical and then ill divve in and see.
How much you been drinkinâ tonight thump?! I was an educator for 22 years, and my wife is a high school teacher. I thought you were trying to lay off the sauceâŚ
This is one of your most out-there posts to date. Where the fuck are you getting this info?! Not a single bit of what you wrote is correct, and I find your perspective on teachers (as well as the heath and safety of children) absolutely deplorable and mildly offensive.

well when all the science says its safe to have in class school and the teachers union says no= they are clearly anti science.
You donât know what youâre talking about. Better to just try an unlearn the bovine excrement someoneâs been feedinâ you.

Summary Rapid tests donât work on some new variants
Some big brains came out for this talk, will reach out to some friends of mine, I know a few that did work on the clinical trials side, and have family in pharma, so thereâs a chance I can dig something up worth the time.
So far, yes the vaccine is effective⌠we cured polio with the March of Dimes ffs, So one of the most overly funded vaccine trials, along with the fastest in history, ever practically Fir the covid vaccine⌠I have just been waiting to get mine to see the effects it has had, but if my mother can get one, and have mild symptoms, I ainât worried.
I seriously feel like a lot of the off label uses are like people trying to pass a drug test, I have known people to bleach hair, drink bleach, eat an assload of azoâs, brew mysterious teas they bought at the head shop.
Any off label medication may help symptoms, but for the most part are best left to treating symptoms.
Best bet, good self care, eat well, take supplements, and get the vaccine. (None of this is possibly more detrimental than covid) from a stats view its your best bet.
Now I shall return with something a little more fruitful than what I understand, there are better people at sciencing that can describe why I feel this way.

Only question is whether it was an American or Chinese labâŚ

Judging from the proximity of the outbreak I would assume in China. Either that or 007 planted it there
I have a open mind if you have some decent info
@Akoyeh it was probably both, if it was a Chinese lab, it was American funded, likely.
I am also concerned that the theory is being kicked by war hawks in our political strata to justify more defense spending/sanctioning etc, which is why it concerned me that conclusion was being jumped to so early on, without solid evidence.

So early I say not early enough until they find a animal infected with covid all options and theoryâs should be looked into
