To me, this is undoubatedly a huge part of the problem. I noticed that my depression spiked when I started to become more isolated. I was getting older, long time friends are now s…

One small screw-up and it can be all over. I know it first hand. I got completely burnt out, ended up drinking too much, and lost everything. At least with this career there is a c…

You can see from my comment history that I have a history of problems with alcohol also. I have spent many Christmas's holed up in motels alone with a bottle, thinking "what's the …

Can't dispute until posted, and the way the scam works is they get you on the phone as quickly as they can in order to continue to the scam. Obviously, in hindsight the correct way…

It's absolutely not a troll comment. I stand by the science and I would love any evidence of something like natural zoonotic spillover.

The big difference here is that now we have the added problem of dealing with ACE2 bindings which affect human lungs/liver/heart/pancreas/etc. This is a dangerous difference. > SAR…

There are numerous reasons why we need a proper investigation into this. If this came out of WIV, we need to determine exactly why these bat coronaviruses were being studied with r…
