A friend offered me ecstasy one time, and I said, "What about Parkinson's?"

He laughed and said, "Are you kidding me? After all the drugs you have taken over the years?"

The trend to reject the vaccine just means more of the same.

I say it's worth the risk to take.

But as alluded to, I was a reckless drug taker back in the day.
I was a reckless drug taker too...back in the day.

That's what has me scratching my head.

I've moved on from that.

But some of my colleagues want to be that.

I guess it's cause they were never that?

You got a link for side effects?

The thinking about long term side effects is theoretical.

Every time you hear stuff like "There isn't any data that supports long term side effects" it's because it hasn't been studied.

Most studies have been with mice.

It's probably fine.

But I prefer being patient for a traditional vaccine - which will arrive shortly.

I think it's more about making decisions in the face of great uncertainty.

Sure, question what he says but be aware that we are facing that same great uncertainty.

Everyone always goes to malice and bad faith.

This is a really fucked up situation that is everchanging.

In the face of uncertainty, doing nothing is often the best option.

What is ironic is I would take the untested vaccine but I am so far back in the end line.

I would prefer to take the Oxford vaccine if I could.

It seems before spring (hopefully).

Like 'prax said, the FDA is going to stall on approving the Oxford vaccine (already apprvd in the UK) - or not approve at all.

Politics.

Johnson and Johnson has one that might get emergency use by end of March.

I heard they bought a bunch.

So crazy you can't get.

You should be able to sign a release.
