I'm surprised there is no mention of the pan-coronavirus vaccine the US Army has been working on, which is also a "nanoparticle" vaccine:

Seems like an odd omission for someone so (literally) invested in the space.

There are studies comparing the protection offered by vaccination vs natural infection, so there's no need to draw conclusions from a single anecdote. Obviously when you're just looking at a single case the results will be dominated by behaviour and luck around exposure, not the degree of immunity.

or to make working public transportation a norm across the country and interstate travel

Not extensive studies.
