I'd like to see GE weigh in on this abstract.

Golfing Eagles.....where are you?

Nobody knows the long term effects of these synthetic mRNA vaccines. They haven't been used for even a year yet. They are not FDA approved. The government has promised to idemnify the manufacturers against any lawsuits resulting from long term problems. They said it would take 3 years to develop a vaccine, yet these arrived in months, thanks to Trump's "Warp Speed" approach. If anything goes wrong in the future, Trump will likely be blamed.

Personally, I find it interesting BUT difficult to accept the author's opinion, primarily based on how many medical professionals and scientists utilize masks for hours, daily. But, that is only my opinion.
The NIH did not review this paper and say "this is a great paper, let's put it on our website." They put ALL papers on their website without review, even crappy ones like this.

Here's the thing. If he makes a hypothesis, he should support it with data. Why should I disprove his hypothesis when he didn't prove it in the first place?

I am a very bottom line person. For me the vaccine was a choice to die now or die later. We are still here, all of us. We may not be able to bear children in the future or we may all switch in three years to being FISCAL CONSERVATIVES.....or we may grow warts on our fannies. If a person is over seventy they were at more than moderate risk from dying from Covid-19 if they contracted it. That was o.k. for some people but for the people who are smart and sassy and vocal and feisty and who live in The Villages, they apparently weighed the risk and even if they voted (cough) the way they voted and the media says they are anti-vaccine, about 70% of us here in The Villages got the shot(s). Good for us. Now we will wait and watch. Please try not to get pregnant or impregnate others.

I read that New Atlas article several days ago.

And thanks for taking part in the experiment!
