        well I don’t think they can stop people from getting the shot unless the FDA gets involved and bans it. and idk how well that would go over since it’s been in use for decades and there’s no evidence it’s dangerous. it would almost certainly face some lawsuits, and he hasn’t been doing well in lawsuits lately. I don’t think one like that would go well for him either since it’s pretty obvious they oppose vaccines based on political ideology and not science.

      Does having a wider population sharing the disease lead to mutation and weakening of the efficacy of the vaccine for the people who get it?

      Yes. But it still matters, because we’re talking statistics here, and also insurance is less likely to cover it now.

      And also, that guy won’t stop. You think he’s satisfied with this alone? No way. It will get worse.

        The US going down the Russia path: “Surely it can’t be worse?” - “And then it got worse…”
