time to require proof of vaccines from americans at airports and borders?
I’m sure the new government will enforce that.
This would be about other governments on earth enforcing that. Which really does seem sensible at this point, even if only to make a statement.
Sorry, all you get is proof of brain worms and essential oils.
As an American I fully support such proposals.
Yeah as an American I generally support the rest of the world trying to drag us back into the civilized world however they can.
But at the same time, international travel inconveniences will have a 0% effect on a LOT of people who need the message.

America doesn’t have the capacity to track that in any meaningful way. COVID was proof of this.
Well, that’s to bad for the US now, isn’t it? Maybe they could adopt a national ID that makes sense while they’re at it.

No?
This sentence bears all the context it needs.
No not Big Pharma! Won’t anybody think of the STOCKS?
Upside: pharmacy companies stop making massive profits
Downside: we all die from preventable diseases.
Win some lose some 🤷

Am I the only one who thinks companies providing healthcare and life saving medicines shouldn’t be fucking publicly traded?? They need to focus on helping humanity, not the fucking bottom line go up or whatever.
Well yes that’s obvious
It’s supposed to be publicly funded, not traded
Someone a long time ago must have misheard
Except it’s actually the best of both worlds for the rich - as far as I know, a lot of these companies are publicly traded AND receive public funding.
Publicity traded, AKA shareholders leverage the company to make return on their investment and this company also receives public money just for the hell of it? Wow, what a combination. Totally not a setup for major exploitation.
Sooo, anyone want to take bets that Bird Flu is going to be the next pandemic?
Avian flu thankfully didn’t become a major pandemic in times past due to luck and measures taken. But SARS in 2003 could have become a major pandemic… because COVID-19 is a variant of the 2003 SARS…
The government has decided that pandemics are a hoax and as such do not exist.
Off to the gulag, I go.
M pox is hot right now
M pox is so cliche. Bird Flu is hot.

How do I find a way out of this dimension?
Such a sad time in history.
Possibly the end of history.

This is farcical. Operation Warp Speed (fast development of Covid vaccines) was one of the few good things that Trump 1.0 did.
From tragedy to farce as you give Trump credit for the work of Nobel prize winning medical scientists Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman. Bloodly hell we are moving towards being North Korea.

Yeah fuck giving him credit for what scientists did.
Trump authorized and funded OWS. Obviously he didn’t do the actual science. It’s JFK and the moon landing. JFK didn’t build the rockets or fly in them, but the project as a whole happened because of his getting behind it.
Not comparable to the moon mission. Letting someone else deal with a deadly disease should be not just a low bar, but the floor, for a leader.
I think you are rationalizing. Biden and Trump both did terrible at dealing with Covid. OWS was one of the few things done right. It really was something like the moon program. Otherwise you can never credit or blame a politician for anything unless they are the ones personally doing the work. But that’s not what they do.
The alternative to OWS would have been to just let big pharma develop vaccines the usual way, instead of using a lot of approaches in parallel with government funding to get usable ones faster. Of course the protection from those vaccines was then pissed away under both administrations, by doing almost nothing (except during the initial lockdowns) to stop airborne spread of the virus. The Herman Cain Award is one of the most memorable legacies from that.
I stopped reading, pitiful second sentence
And you downvoted anyway. Silly cultist. 800,000 people dead of Covid under Biden, not a good look.
Biden didn’t cause half the deaths like Trump but sure bOtH sIdEs
I mean, what can anyone even say about this. It’s just so insane
