I don't think in terms of links. Sorry! I still have a reasonable memory. Dr. Hotez is on the NORMAL cable TV news programs about once every 3rd day. He is one of the world's best-known pediatric epidemiologists. He has consulted all over the globe. He has several books published. He is currently at Baylor U. That is enough information to get any link or information about him that would be needed. Hope that helps and please excuse my attitude. But, the link-o-mania on this forum has become a pet peeve of mine.

I think the difference is the vaccine is designed to prevent you from getting the virus. Regeneron is designed to fight the virus if you get it. The FDA has approved both methods of administering Regeneron as well as two (I think) other types of infusion therapy.

I'd like to ask if you'll refuse that treatment if you get sick because of DeSantis but we're not supposed to get political.

I really wish I knew how to get as smart as some of the posters on this site. I guess I need to give a couple of tablespoons of blood.

The title of his website is obviously tongue in cheek. Sorry you're unable to figure that out. Also sorry you seem so closed minded you consider anything contrarian as conspiracy. Whether I believe them or not, listening to the other side can give insight.

Serious question here. Just for my own edification, which sources should I be following to be assured it's the truth?

The "other side" is conspiracy. The side I'm on is science, fact, peer-reviewed double-blind tested on more than 20 blond-haired blue-eyed virgins plucked from their kitchens at the peak of health. The "other side" of "my" side is opinion, extrapolation, supposition, pretense, fiction.

The other side isn't something any sentient human being would want to listen to, except for possibly entertainment value.

You go girl!

Not tongue in cheek at all.

The OP always delivers half baked conspiracy theories, actually the headline thought has circulated on a few extreme websites.

OK. I'll go with the 20 virgins. Who wouldn't?

Well, not always. I don't mind reading 'out there' columns. I certainly don't entirely trust the government and am sorry if you do. How's this from one of his articles?

Corona is somewhat bad. In terms of mortality, it is the equivalent of a middle-of-the-road pandemic flu. Adjusting for age and obesity, it seems to be in the neighbourhood of the Hong Kong Flu of 1968/69. In other words, Corona is more deadly, but only because we have an older and fatter population.

Corona is dangerous, almost exclusively, to the old, the obese, and the already ill. Almost all deaths and serious cases happen in these very identifiable sub-populations. In children, Corona is less dangerous than influenza. The risk stratification of Corona is so extreme, that most people fail to understand their own risk. Almost everybody under 60 or 70 drastically overestimates the risk Corona poses to them.

Written before Delta took hold and sounds fairly accurate to me. Waiting for more data on Delta to see if it holds up.

Would u rather it keep going to endless wars?

I'm definitely a specimen, but I don't need to be a candidate for a vaccine trial for that!

I also was going to use the term "human guinea pig" but worried someone might think that was some kind of derogative.

and I'm ignoring the weekly "hysteric" posts about COVID. ..and the NYT? Zero credibility. They are a wholly-owned subsidiary of the DNC.

Without referencing ANY one poster. Real men don't need links - and that is meant as a joke!

Without referencing any one poster, I think you just insulted "him"

I am not easily insulted, but seems to me that “accepting as truth” with no links to support, in a venue that most posts are either made up or copy and pasted from “way out” websites, simply points that you are not here to discuss, but to pontificate. Of course I am speaking of those kind of subjects that are national and not Villages unique.

This forum was initially set up for discussion and we are told now that we must forgo the truth and accept whatever someone “says” is true, discussion cannot be held, at least not adult discussion. You are suggesting that DISINFORMATION become the norm……”I do not agree with that post”
