This actually gets me thinking... Is anyone actually working on an aids vaccine? Maybe mRNA could do something there, theoretically it should be able to grant pretty much any type of immunity you can have naturally

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

There have been recent breakthroughs in that area along this exact line of thought, actually.

PreP is a really effective tool for now while research continues. Your chances of getting HIV while taking the medication correctly reduces your chances to a very very small percentage. Of course, nothing is perfect, but it's been great for the gay amab community.

These clueless twats think they are very smart.

it's not that they are stupid, they are attention hungry losers that will believe manufactured drivel like this because it makes them feel special, because they have "knowledge" that unenlightened masses don't, and they prefer it over reality

I have an aunt who at the beginning of the pandemic noticed that an old can of Lysol or something said it was effective against coronaviruses.

This was proof to her that the government engineered COVID and knew of the pandemic in advance (and I guess told Lysol about it). I linked her the Wikipedia page for coronaviruses and that shut her up.

If only we could make stupidity painful.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Unfortunately it's only painful for the rest of us.

This is the most believable vaccine conspiracy I have seen yet. Everything else is stupidly far fetched, but replacing with saline and getting everyone to get on with their lives is a lot more believable then anything else I have seem. I wouldn't be surprised if that happened in some places in the world.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

China and Russia both rolled out domestic pride vaccines that were far less effective than either mRNA kind, so, while not quite saline, something along those lines.

People really like to throw their opinions at everyone else even if they don't understand anything on the subject. I remember seeing a post on Facebook saying something along the lines of:

a virus that dies with soap and water and they haven't found a cure yet?
