Anthony Fauci *FUNDED* the development at Wuhan after the trials under Dr. Ralph Baric at UNC were discontinued / made to quit; this was IIRC back in 2014-2015 or so.
Fauci also *reportedly* (I've been told but haven't looked it up) owns a number of related patents, and stock in companies like Moderna.
The CDC patented the SARS virus back ages ago, IIRC 2007 or so? (this was from patents.google.com, and one of the pro-VAX trolls called it a "left wing conspiracy site" to discredit it before I identified the source to him).
Moderna in their SEC filing with Wall Street last year, admitted their jab was an experimental gene therapy and that they were $1.74 billion in debt.
Pfizer just came out and said that mRNA injections would be a significant source of revenue going forward, even as they tried to extend the age for those receiving the boosters down to age 12 (for whom the fatality rate from the COOF is << 0.1%)
And Johns Hopkins School of public health war-gamed a new SARS virus including "right-wing opposition" to public health measures and new treatments, back in 2017. (Compare the recent editorial in Nature by an MD from Baylor who links "anti-vaxxers" to "right wing supremacists who spread disinformation about the 2020 election".)
There's something worse than a conspiracy theorist.
That something is a coincidence theorist.
What does any of that have to do with the actual science behind the vaccines, and the many honest researchers who developed it?
If we never try anything new and perhaps sometimes risky, we will never progress. (When Ben Franklin wanted his own family inoculated through this very new science, it was pretty controversial then, too.)
I asked a question some weeks ago to which I don’t believe I ever received a response:
We’ve often seen complaints that the whole FDA approval process is too expensive, takes too long, and is just another example of excessive bureaucracy and government control; and that it adds drastically to the costs of R&D and the ultimate costs - financial and otherwise - to the consumer.
What would you, or anyone else here who fears the ‘experimental’ nature of the vaccine, suggest as an appropriate protocol/time period before a drug or vaccine can be considered no longer ‘experimental’?
