Unfortunately, this allows for BOTH factual information and propaganda to be published in media like Facebook. Each of us individually must decide where and who we put our trust in. As we see from the posts the majority of us are struggling with an overload of true and false information. It has divided friends and families and is a sad chapter in US modern history!
Well, let's hope the "unlikely" expert is correct. If not, then from an epidemiological point of view, the vaccine would be useless. What good is a vaccine that allows the vaccinated to contract, and then spread the disease????? If it's only value is that the vaccinated are less likely to get seriously ill or die, that is actually counterproductive in the population as a whole since it allows people who would otherwise die to spread the disease. (but better for that individual)
