    It is a military superpower; one shouldn't expect them to address their security in terms of charity and human rights. As for security of Europe, the status quo was already changed…

    I think one of Jung's comments was that we don't really know the performance benefits of UB in that blog post.

    Immunocompromised subpopulation is so small (at least in my country), especially compared to unvaccinated (abt. 30%), that it should be fairly trivial to quarantine them, don't rea…

    I forgot (because I assume the original was a lab leak) that China's entire (believe it or not) story is that it was a bat leak instead. So .. some government actions do not seem j…
