If you were actually following the science,
Its going to be a glorious day when this is over and every minivan-driving midwit soccer parent, and others such as you, aren't using the phrase "follow the science" as a replacement for an understanding of how to read, interpret, and cite science as evidence.
To wit, no scientist nor person who was trained in science would combine the above phrase with "there were grave concerns" as evidence of "following the science".
In an attempt to spin your way out of being called out on being wrong, within your prior attempt to use your (wrong) statements as a platform for being a vaccine promotion, you accuse me of getting my information from social media influencers after citing actual science. While your rhetoric revolves around social media's favorite catch phrase (in place of science): "follow the science".
and if you can remember as far back as the beginning of the pandemic, there were grave concerns that coronavirus infection would not produce lasting immunity. Fortunately, it has turned out coronavirus infection does produce immunity which lasts for a reasonably long time.
If on the other hand you were getting your information from social media influencers, you probably do not know about the science.
There is a difference, you know, between professors of immunology, and bimbo influencers with large breasts on a YouTube channel.
Let me get this straight.
You were wrong.
I am right.
But you were right in being wrong,
and I must have been getting my correct information from social media influencers.
yada yada.... your continued abuse of a straw man.
You can't be a serious forum participant.
Unless you have experienced for yourself the horrors of what a virus can do to totally destroy your life, you really don't understand the potential consequences of a viral infection As someone who developed a crippling lifelong disease (myalgic encephalomyelitis, aka ME/CFS) from a viral infection I had 15 years ago, I have been promoting vaccines and research into viruses for some time. I live every miserable day with the consequences of not being protected from some of the nasty viruses out there which can cause chronic disease.
The Longevity community are an innocent bunch who don't really understand the causes of ill health and early death.
Like most people in the general public, the Longevity community don't appreciate (and are not even aware of) the link between infectious pathogens and chronic disease. The whole Longevity community is barking up the wrong tree, in terms of what they think causes ill health and early death. I have been trying to bring pathogens to the awareness of the Longevity community on this forum for years, but without anyone really listening.
My opinion is that you are thinking delusionally. There is likely a more specific psychiatric term for it, but I wouldn't feel confident in trying to zero in on it (ie: something that tells you that you are specifically unique and wise in a forum full of people with issues and advanced degrees). The delusional thinking encourages embarassing statements such as those above, and encourages your misguided rhetorical style.
How many people that participate here do you think suffer from crippling conditions?
You incorrectly percieve your uniqueness, in both condition and understanding. Your self-contrast with others here reveals issues that you may want to talk to a psychologist about. II'm not trying to embarass you. But your generalization of people here as well as your self-concept is off kilter.
