If you're sick of (or with) COVID, join the club. It's endless. SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes the disease, keeps throwing one surprise after another at us in ways that could have never been predicted early in the pandemic.
Somehow we pulled it off. More or less.
Are COVID vaccines responsible for creating the multiple variants that keep hitting the world? I get this question all the time in the comments section following ACSH articles about vaccines.
As if the Delta variant hasn't been a big enough pain in the a##, pretty much the last thing we need is an "improved" version.
Throughout 2021, Mike “the health ranger” Adams has been a consistent source of science-fiction-inspired commentary about the COVID-19 vaccines.
It's a bit of an oversimplification, but not by much. One molecule of "vinegar" is responsible for a whole lot of disease and deaths all over the world.
