MODERATORS
They've been working on a COVID vaccine since the SARS epidemic, but that fact won't stop the stupid.
Also, cancer isn’t one disease but a whole class of diseases. And we actually do have vaccines that prevent certain forms of cancer, like the HPV vaccine.
I WONT LET MY KID GET THE HPV VACCINE. IT MEANS THEY CAN HAVE SEX WITH NO CONSEQUENCES
Ma'am, pregnancy is still a consequence of sex as you obviously should know after having 5 kids.
if she grew up with a certain kind of religious education, it's possible she still might not have drawn that particular connection
There is also a lung cancer vaccine made in Cuba, called CimaVax (I think).
There's some hurdles to getting it though, depending on where you are.
Also, the amount of computational power that was made available for COVID research was recorded breaking.
If you were on Folding@home at that time, they couldn't get enough WU out fast enough for a while. Gamers really showed up and helped.
Yeah, it helps when you have a mind-boggling amount of computers across the world crunching your data.
Also, why wouldn't they use a cancer vaccine for a "mind control" or "tracking chip".
I always found the tracking chip conspiracy stuff to be particularly funny. Unfortunately, I never personally met any whackos that believed it.
The best method for very accurately tracking them was the thing they likely used to post about the COVID vaccine tracking you.
Belief isn't needed.
MIT researchers have now developed a novel way to record a patient’s vaccination history: storing the data in a pattern of dye, invisible to the naked eye, that is delivered under the skin at the same time as the vaccine. https://news.mit.edu/2019/storing-vaccine-history-skin-1218
And Bill Gates talking about doing it in a reddit AMA.
Yes. The Jannsen and Oxford vacancies.
However, vaccines using mRNA technology are VERY new.
