@furgar Cancer isn't a virus, it's a part of the body going haywire so it's hard to fight it without fighting the rest of the body. It's impossible to make a vaccine for it

The "common cold" just means the current seasonal flu. We have vaccines for them, flu shots are a thing

But yeah, vax development generally take like 10 years. Maybe they could say that coronaviruses are more studied but eh. He should focus more on that it's a completely new and untested technology to develop them

@applejack @furgar
Exactly my point.
It took 50 years for the side effects of thalidomite to become official.

These vaccines were months old. You cannot make decades of research in 3 months. It just is not possible.

@applejack @furgar
the problem is, that normies think in names.

It's called a vaccine, not poison. Poisons hurt you, vaccines help you :npc:

@LukeAlmighty @applejack @furgar let us not call them normies because being an non critical thinking retard in not normal in any way

@demitasse @applejack @furgar
It is normal by definition.
It is common. A default assumption can be made about any person you meet, that with 80 percent certainty they are a normie.

@NEETzsche @applejack @furgar @demitasse
I was told I do often exaggerate, so I said the low estimate just to be sure.

@LukeAlmighty @applejack @furgar @demitasse Now for some real autism: degree of normie-ness.

Your normie-ness is a number between 0 and 1, where at 0 you are a totally unique person to really cannot be compared to anybody else at all, and at 1, literally everything about you is dead average and there is literally nothing remarkable about you at all.

Nobody actually achieves either of these extremes and everybody has a number like 0.25 or 0.75 etc
@applejack @furgar HIV is a bitch to vaccinate against. the common cold actually isn't the flu, it's a lot of different non-influenza viruses that cause similar minor illness, there's adenoviruses, RSV, that's what I read iirc.

>The common cold or the cold is a viral infectious disease of the upper respiratory tract that primarily affects the respiratory mucosa of the nose, throat, sinuses, and larynx.[6][8] Signs and symptoms may appear fewer than two days after exposure to the virus.[6] These may include coughing, sore throat, runny nose, sneezing, headache, and fever.[3][4] People usually recover in seven to ten days,[3] but some symptoms may last up to three weeks.[7] Occasionally, those with other health problems may develop pneumonia.[3]
>Well over 200 virus strains are implicated in causing the common cold, with rhinoviruses, coronaviruses, adenoviruses and enteroviruses being the most common.[14] They spread through the air during close contact with infected people or indirectly through contact with objects in the environment, followed by transfer to the mouth or nose.[3] Risk factors include going to child care facilities, not sleeping well, and psychological stress.[6] The symptoms are mostly due to the body's immune response to the infection rather than to tissue destruction by the viruses themselves.[15] The symptoms of influenza are similar to those of a cold, although usually more severe and less likely to include a runny nose.[6][16]

this is one of the most retarded tweets I've read, hilarious stuff

amusingly enough one of the uses the mrna vaccine tech was already being developed for prior to covid appearing was actually cancer. send them a sample and they send back a brand new one off custom vaccine against your specific cancerous cells a few weeks later
