  1. If that's your take on this, then I would have to submit that again, you haven't really understood what is being talked about. This research is about creating a vaccine - nothing more, nothing less. Now, it is a vaccine based on a slightly different kind of approach than previous vaccines but it still relies on taking an antigen from an actual virus and exposing your body to it in order to evoke an immune response. You still seem to be talking as if this will somehow cause certain viruses to cease to exist. It won't. This is something which will inhibit a virus from replicating once it gets inside a human body, just as other vaccines do, but (according to the researchers) in a more efficient and hopefully more durable manner.
  2. Did you read the attached article? This would not pre-emptively eliminate viruses. It would however (if it pans out) make a person's immune system more able to fight off a virus. Neither is what is being talked about here, an antiviral medicine.
  3. True, however this is not mRNA vaccine technology. It is RNAi technology - a totally different proposition.
  4. You're falling for the mis-statement in the headline. He has not renounced British residency. That's not actually a thing. All he has done, is state on some kind of housing form that his primary country of residence is the US - which even the casual observer could see that it plainly is. For instance, I used to live in France at one time. If asked what my normal country of residence was at that time, I would always say it was France. It didn't mean I had "renounced" anything to do with the UK. You can become non-resident for tax purposes in the UK, but that's something you have to sort out directly with HMRC not just by putting on some miscellaneous form what your current country of residence is. Tax if you leave the UK to live abroad
  5. As the Yahoo article that @Danderman123linked to says: Don't forget that even Project Veritas, the far right-wing outlet that originally received the diary, wouldn't publish it because it couldn't be confirmed.
  6. Except that those two things are not mutually exclusive. According to an analysis in Time Magazine of where the money actually goes, around 90% of the money for Ukraine aid is spent in the US (and creates thousands of US jobs). Why the U.S. Has the Most to Gain From Supporting Ukraine
  7. Well, it's currently under review by a judge, so I guess we'll see. Prince Harry visa court case explained as US visa application given to judge
  8. No need to wait until 2027. First electric car equipped with solid-state batteries goes on sale
  9. Yes - a properly conducted opinion poll with a random sample of 1,000 people gives a 95% chance of a result that reflects the opinion of the entire US population, with a 3% margin of error. See article from the Scientific American, below. How can a poll of only 1,004 Americans represent 260 million people with only a 3 percent margin of error? Also, to quote an old joke that is popular with survey researchers: "If you don't believe in the accuracy of random sampling, next time you have a blood test, ask the doctor to take it all."
  10. Not if they spoke English and the staff were not adept at recognizing what kind of English accent they were speaking with.
  11. If by "demeaning treatment" Morgan means that Trump was subject to some kind of unusually harsh words from the judge then he obviously doesn't understand NY state court procedures. Trump received the same exact admonitions from the judge (known as Parker warnings) that every criminal defendant in a NY courtroom receives.
  12. Based on what the Immigration website indicates, it seems you can do it by post in any location in the country.
  13. According to the Immigration website. Notification of staying in the Kingdom over 90 Days
  14. My answer would be, "None of the above." I don't think you can put a specific time frame on when Israel will use their nuclear weapons but I don't think you can say they would never use them, either.
