I love Topol, he keeps on keeping on about the vaxx, even though had to have known that coronaviruses mutate too much to ever control. The things people do for their 30 pieces of silver.

The pace at which most infectious respiratory pathogens evolve makes them poor candidates for vaccination. The best you can get is something like the seasonal flu shot--good for the current season and that's it.

Any doctor who is unaware of that should find another line of work.

And often that seasonal flu shot isn't really good for the current season either!

Flu shots are also snake oil and quackery. They are, however, quite a bit less harmful.

Igor, I'm starting to wonder about that statement "quite a bit less harmful" after all these Covid shots. Wondering if because we weren't seeing them massively given out on a global scale and for the most part, they have been voluntary, if the harm was just not as visible. I vaguely remember a study by a Vancouver scientist that stated if you had the regular seasonal flu shot, and then got H1N1 in the spring that it emerged, her data showed that you were more likely to experience a severe case.

This likely happened to me with my first and only flu shot a while ago. Flu shot and then a horrible flu. Never again
