A way to stop the spread of C19?

@Metal-Brain
How about universal free birth control pills or such.
The way to less population is to control the average birth rate.
It is working maybe too well in Japan, they have an especially high elder population.
But there are many countries not in that boat where birth control would be appropriate.

People are GOING to have sex and there is no control over that but we can control the results.

I would assume even an anti abortionist like you would not bitch about THAT.

Why not just reduce poverty worldwide?
Have you ever thought of that?

@Metal-Brain
Gee, NEVER would have thought of THAT.

Lets see, getting folks out of poverty WORLD WIDE.

So here poverty level is about 30K a year, now cut that back in half to sort of take into account the rest of the world, so 15K/ year, times 8 billion works out to about 15 TRILLION dollars a year just for their wages.
Ok, now that you have a Phd in virology, another in political science and now you must have a Phd in economics too.

So how is the world going to come up with that much money EVERY YEAR, not even counting business expenses, insurance, taxes, union dues and the like.

I would assume it would take maybe 3X that 15K to keep the system going so we are closing in on 50 Trillion a year.

So tell me just how we go about doing that little thing?

Reduce the gap between the rich and poor. The wealthy are hoarding wealth for themselves at the expense of the rest of us. That is increasing the world population. Bill Gates is the problem, not the solution. He knows reducing poverty would reduce the population, but he has no interest in that. He would have to give up his wealth and power to do the right thing, so he wants to reduce the world population in unethical ways so he can keep hoarding wealth at the expense of everyone else.

You are a democrat, but you are too far to the right. You need to realize unregulated capitalism is the problem and it only leads to fascism. Socialism is the answer. You need to go farther to the left. You are too much like a republican. Democrats are just moderate republicans.

@Metal-Brain
So what would be your limit to involvement in destroying the American version of democracy?

Do you just do what you think is debate or do you take it further, maybe join the proud boys or such? Take up arms?

How about all of them, plus Zuckerberg, Musk, and all the rest? Gates is no less a parasite than the others - remember that the whole of the internet still suffers massively, every second, from the excrement he foisted on the world with his crooked practices - and that lot is fine company for the likes of him.

Quite, so: hang them all from a lantern!

Unless you really do believe that the Halloween Documents aren't anything like as bad as Haugen's testimony; in which case, I have this nice little blue pill for you to swallow, and it isn't Viagra.

Bezos could learn from Musk. Musk is smarter.

No offense to you Son, and I'm certain from our previous conversations that you have posted in good faith.

I do however think that this article is a bit misleading (not your fault and easy to miss) , but it's a bit like "wow, we have at last managed to do this that and the other with the spike protein".

The spike protein was patented on 28th January 2000 ............

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41587-021-00912-9 - is a lead in to the research.

@Metal-Brain
Don't worry, there WILL be a major correction in human population when climate change cuts off arable land for farms and people around the planet starve to death. THAT will definitely reduce the population,
and may drive the entire planet back a thousand years and religious nuttery gets going bigtime, muslims in active war with christians and so forth.

2100 is not going to be a nice year.

But of course nothing will stop a dedicated troll like you from coming up with yet ANOTHER BS rightwing lying site.

@medullah
That piece talks about mRNA therapy. I think that is a whole different area than the work shown by Phys.org.
The technology gets better year by year and this covid crisis has upped the science considerably from necessity of course.
