Well, not sure where we got off track. Diana Harshbarger is prime example of money buying power and influence. Perhaps that is how an aged Democracy works? But, I cant stop the power and influence of money on our Govt. Big business and money have had far too great an influence for decades via the lobby, this is nothing new.

I agree, but I'm just saying politicians shouldn't be lauded for public service, whether they bought their way in or not. Those lobbyists are successful because our "public servants" allow them to be.

This is what it could look like to produce a vaccine that works on all COVID-19 variants

I legitimately don’t understand people who say “oh so you’re just gonna get boosters every six months/year?!” Uh, yeah, dude…I also get a flu shot every year so…? I honestly don’t get people who are opposed to boosters lol.

A guy I work with tested with no symptoms because his wife had it. He never got it as far as he knows. He isn't vaccinated either

I have had COVID twice, in February before they closed everything down and again (Delta) in August. I am fully immunized with booster and have antibodies from both the infection and immunizations according to my MD. My wife has O- blood will not get the vaccine and has no antibodies and can not seem to get it. She has been going everywhere and recently retired from a medical facility. Go figure.

The original COVID was like a mild case of the flu and the second time like a light cold. I am a senior slightly obese diabetic male out in the work force every day with lots of exposure.

Just mysterious to me how the disease is picking winners and losers.
