It’s the summer and I’m busy.
He keeps this annoying spam up for when I’m paying attention I’ll just ban him for good.
I’ve warned him plenty.

I think it's because, IMO, there isn't ill-intent. He's just stupid.
Actually one of the most abundant ingredients of any vaccine, including COVID vaccines is dihydrogen monoxide. It has been shown to be responsible for thousands of deaths each year.
In fact, many individuals die each year in backyards due to sudden, excessive ingestion accompanied by inability to breathe. Why does big pharma not warn people against this insidious and dangerous chemical! Our politicians are in the grips of the dihydrogen monoxide lobby.
Randy should really do his research about this one

Wouldn't you know, according to the latest research, my blood type makes me more vulnerable to infection with the Covid-19 virus. That being said, as far as I know, (knock on wood), thus far I haven't been.
According to
...a paper published this week in the medical journal Blood...the cells from people with blood type A were more likely to get infected with SARS-CoV-2 than cells from people with blood type O... (Blood) Types A, B and AB, however...interact differently with the COVID-19 virus.
Soon after SARS-CoV-2 began its assault on the world, scientists began searching for clues about what, if any, factors made people more or less likely to get infected with the virus, and more or less likely to get severely sick if they did.
Early studies from China in 2020 suggested people with certain blood types—specifically blood type A—might be at greater risk for getting infected—while those with type O may be protected against infection. Some small studies confirmed the connections, while others did not, leaving public health experts agnostic about how important blood type might be as a potential risk factor for COVID-19...
...type A was linked to anywhere from a 25% to 50% increased risk of infection, depending on the particular variant involved. Type A blood group cells were particularly vulnerable to getting infected with Omicron variant viruses...

The Fast-Spreading New COVID-19 Subvariant XBB Is Part of a ‘New Class’ of Omicron
For the past several months, Omicron subvariants BA.4 and BA.5 have dominated COVID-19 cases in the U.S. But now, there’s a class of new COVID subvariants on the rise and one in particular is getting plenty of attention. It’s called XBB—or Gryphon—and there’s a chance it could overtake everything else out there.
XBB is getting a lot of buzz because it spreads fast—and seems to be able to evade immunity that people have built up from having a previous COVID-19 infection or getting the vaccine, says William Schaffner, M.D., an infectious disease specialist and professor at the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. Still, Dr. Schaffner says, “it’s early days and we have a lot to learn.”
...XBB is thought to have the best ability to evade antibody protections of these newly emerged COVID variants, according to a pre-print study from researchers in China. That study said that the new strains of Omicron, and XBB in particular, “are the most antibody-evasive strain tested, far exceeding BA.5 and approaching SARS-CoV-1 level.” (SARS-CoV-1, in case you’re not familiar with it, is the strain of coronavirus that causes SARS, a respiratory virus that can cause severe illness.)
Meaning, the vaccine and having previously had COVID-19 are not thought to offer the same level of protection against XBB as they have with previous strains of COVID-19. Antibody drugs like Evusheld and bebtelovimab may also not be very effective against XBB, the pre-print study says.
“These variants are evolving to evade protection,” Dr. Russo says. The bivalent booster is “likely going to be protective against severe disease” with XBB, but will be “imperfect against preventing infection," Dr. Russo says.
Don’t panic, though. “When it comes to evasion of vaccine protection, it’s important to recognize that vaccine protection is not all or none,” Dr. Adalja says. “Even with immune-evasive variants, vaccine protection against what matters most—severe disease—remains intact.”

Indian authorities wouldn’t know a safe vaccine if it bit them in the ass (look into the safety profiles of Indian-made products)
but good job…keep up the good work

Means they didn’t pay the right guy enough money. The Indian government is one of the most corrupt in the world. Having said that, most Indian bureaucrats are honest: they stay bought. There’s absolutely no scientific reason to run a local trial for a vaccine.

Probably a math error in the study or something. I'll bet Randall predicted this too.

Vaccine efficacy was obviously targeted at people who took them.
