That was the whole article C&P’d. It would be nice to find those numbers from other sources though. I’m sure some day the truth will come out. It always does (unless you’re a Democrat)

Great point.

You can - but I dont really "have" them right now - I was hoping to borrow some from aLg0re, short it, then use the profits to go long on Unilever.

Truth be told - I'll probably blow the profits on a case of Johnny Walker Blue and a few boxes of small pistol primers

The Variants:

The United Kingdom UK Variant of COVID-19 is a mutation amino acid change from Asparagine to Tyrosine at position 501 in the receptor binding domain of the spike protein...(N501Y) . This is not uncommon in viruses and it is not worrisome to virologist because they have seen it before...probably will not lessen the effect on immunization and antibody production of the mRNA vaccines. Everyones immune system reacts differently to an antigen-antibody response. Way too early to answer all the questions even with new technology tools of CRISPR and Next Generation Sequencing...

Truth.....But it seems like we still are cursed with the same old idiots in office every time. Someone needs to break that circle because it's getting ridiculous. Now double masking, words you can no longer utter because they are deemed "racist or not gender friendly" You do wonder if it's all about control and manipulation. We just need to get back to some kind of normalcy. The powers that be fail to realize that besides the economy taking a nosedive, mental health issues are exploding from people being in lock down, that's a crisis in itself.

There is no "choice" .... We can delude ourselves but the RNC and DNC will choose for you

Get in line and cast your ballot...D, R or "flush"

Or as Box would say.... "Eat your peas"

Shallow thinkers believe that changing "names" and "things" change facts. This nation "wants" to be divided -- that's why it's politicians are working so hard to keep it that way. The sooner people realize that, the better off we will be. I don't have a problem knowing whether a person is for me or against me -- just put it out there and drive on. I just don't like the kiddie games they play in the name of doing what they deem right for the nation.

Unfortunately, I agree.

The people with the biggest mental health issues seem to roam the halls of Congress daily.

Yep. I don't believe they have for a couple decades now. The Republicrats only seemed to care because POTUS Trump was someone they could rally behind because he led from the front and was a worthy leader. Now that he is gone, their true selfish colors are showing from both sides of the aisle.
