It's actually depleting 20% more slowly than it was in the eighties, and the big hole is closed for now :)

Am I making sense? I'm a little pressed for time but I wanted to type a quick response before I forget, like I usually do.

It's not a traditional vaccine; it will need a booster; it's had a bigger test run than almost any other pharmaceutical product and it's doing much better than expected (to the point of pissing off big pharma because they don't get rich when people get well); some people pushing it are desperate and saying and doing dumb stuff, etc.
,
At the end of the day, if you get COVID, you're probably not going to die. If you happen to have the shots, your chances of surviving go up by 97%.

It's unfortunate (to me at least, I debate it with friends who strongly disagree) that we've named this mRNA shot a "vaccine." Vaccines have always been tested and vetted and approved and rolled out in a structured way. This has been new technology blasted out as fast as possible.
,
2.3 billion shots have been administered now with no appreciable negative consequences. People dying or hospitalized are almost all among the unprotected.
,
mRNA protection is new. To get this, we snapped off a piece of the coronavirus' mRNA that made it unique (its spike protein) and replicated it in labs. Then we just inject it, and our bodies are like uhhhhhh, and knock it out. The second dose of mRNA spikes happens, and our bodies are more like WTF IS THAT and mount a full scale assault.
,
We should call it a "protection shot" or a "shield" or something new. Not a "vaccine."
,
As with other coronavirus variants, like 229E, NL63, OC43, and HKU1, we will need a booster shot periodically.

COVID will hopefully mutate soon into something that is still transmissible but much less deadly, like the flu.

Vaccine research for the coronavirus is still getting started. We won't have a good one for five to ten years, probably? But I'm glad we have the mRNA stopgap options that are performing so effectively. Go science! :)

That's quite the hot take. Here are the actual facts (link below):
-Bundy was heading his cattle in various places, including BLM-owned land. He stopped paying permit fees in 1993.
-The BLM gave him 20 years and finally confronted him to collect the fees *while his cattle were on government land*. The situation got heated, guns were drawn. The government backed off.
-While Bundy was flying to Portland, OR to participate in another armed standoffs against the government, they arrested him for his earlier actions
-The case got dropped because of a technicality (which should be the real takeaway: the government prosecutors withheld evidence to try and increase their chances of a conviction)
-Bundy has been in the news for 6 years But he's an a-hole that says things like "black people are better off when they're slaves".
-Bundy still grazes his cattle on government land without paying fees, so stay tuned, kids! Let's see how this works out.
