8·24 hours agoMost early vaccines were less dangerous viruses related to more dangerous ones and which provided cross-immunity once the immune system had learned it.
Then there’s been plenty of vaccines with dead virus particles, as well as modified live viruses (dangerous viruses which was weakened, neutralized, or sterilized, or even mild viruses equipped with recognizable but harmless proteins from dangerous viruses) to more safely expose you directly to the pathogen.
Then mRNA and protein subunits and some other types drops the full virus part and provides methods to expose you to only small pieces
It’s generally speaking risky to try to create custom infectious viruses. A significant factor is that triggering the mechanisms for mass production of virus particles in the body can be enough to trigger harmful reactions (immune dysregulation, cell death, etc). Stuff like this is why even viruses you think are harmless still kills people every flu season

It’s easy bait against people like you because it tells who has read up and has specific issues against him, and who doesn’t (you)
So you haven’t actually looked at the policies he pushed through?
This is why Republicans are attacking education, pressuring news companies into only presenting them positively and attacking their opposition (“here’s why Biden’s successes are bad for Biden”), attacking tech companies to pressure them into allowing their disinformation to spread, etc. They’re “playing the refs”.
Have you not looked at what Biden accomplished even without a majority?
Supporting unions and a strong FTC and fighting excess prices, versus free-for-all deregulation?
It wasn’t the policies. It was the insufficient outreach. And of course too many people in leadership not willing to push back, but that’s not the root cause
Just because the employee is federal it doesn’t mean any case involving them automatically becomes federal
Because they heard that from Republicans who lied to them
Support for unions, getting inflation down, etc
Tldr choosing to believe Republicans when they cause problems and blame them on others
“we have a concrete plan for helping you” - crickets
“my plans will hurt you but I’m pretending otherwise” - “what a brilliant businessman!”
Only federal cases, not state cases

It’s so incredibly easy to find stuff he’s done that it’s obvious you’re just acting stupid
(or maybe you aren’t acting)
