  • my background in biochemistry makes me think it’s almost guaranteed to be impossible, so i don’t worry about it.

    however, in hypothetical case it isn’t, i’d argue that it would be proper to destroy this technology in all cases along with inventors, because it would be horridly expensive initially, and first people to get it would be people like peter thiel and larry ellison. there was a recording where putin and xi admitted that they are also interested. then what you’ll get would be class of immortal oligarchs. planck once said, progress in physics happens one funeral at a time, it’s really more general than just physics, and you can say goodbye to any progress from that point on


  • if you have to tell people that you’re enlightened, you ain’t

    also why have you picked vaccines in particular. maybe you wanted to express something else more clearly? there’s no money in vaccines to such degree that western pharma companies don’t want to research them, and bulk of (non-mRNA) vaccines are made in Serum Institute of India, they make this stuff for half of the world if not more. this thing is cheeaap, and because it’s a preventive one and done you can take it on your own terms, you’re not under time pressure to get it so you can shop around to get it cheaply. you can’t nickel and dime people on vaccines

    now if you do want to nickel and dime a patient, you’d need something that they’re gonna need forever and jack up prices or just keep them high from day one, like with antiretrovirals or what purdue pharma did or like with daraprim. and then there’s entirely another very american problem of insurance leech layer. taking a very charitable look at it maybe you want to say a thing about availability of american healthcare in general, less charitably, and more likely, you sound like a libertarian antivaxxer
