    Certainly, but that doesn't negate the fact that we need "outliers" to progress.

    I think of the Australian doctor, Barry Marshall, who discovered that helicobacter was a cause of peptic ulcers, and how long it took for him to convince the medical establishment. And Dr. Timothey Noakes (South Africa) and Dr. Gary Fettke (Australia) have both had to fight organized resistance to their ideas. Dr. Noakes won a court case, and Dr. Fettkes was later exonerated of "nutritional malpractice." None of these people are whack jobs, but principled professionals who wouldn't shut up and go away.

    I wrote the other day about the escape mutant. Its name is E484K. Here is another reference to it since I know some people do not trust CNN:

    I thought the border was closed, but I saw on the news Canadians are making their way to Florida to get vaccinated ahead of US citizens. Here is a link from Bloomberg News for those who do not believe CNN:

    ETA you think since the vaccines come from the Feds Trump would stop this since he is always talking about America first.

    Trump checked out of COVID oversight nearly from the beginning; he isn't even pretending to care these days.

    Many more people have died of covid than in the Capitol, so why if masks stop covid are they being ordered removed in airports? So TSA can get a better look at people's faces on flights to Washington.

    Because of course the government will not stop people from flying around despite new variants including one that is an escape variant.

    I saw in today's local news that 75% of people nationwide are wearing masks and in Massachusetts over 80% yet we continue to break records in the US for infections.

    Not everyone has to get vaccinated to get to herd immunity. 75% would do it.

    So obviously if 75% or more of people are wearing masks and covid continues to spike masks don't work.
