Dr. Stanley J Alexander has primarily specialised in Rheumatology for over 62 years. https://keck.usc.edu/faculty-search/ His name is not found in the Keck School of Medicine faculty directory. Dr. Alexander is no doubt a fine physician and has had a long and successful career in rheumatology. His opinion is no doubt worth considering, even though he is not an expert in viruses or infectious diseases. The opinion of one MD with a specialty in rheumatology upon the original of the COVID virus is certainly not sufficient to say that "the bat origin of this particular virus is no longer an issue". Thanks for your research on Alexander. WSJ should have done the research which you did, before publication. Maybe he should have been titled emeritus prof. The article on which he commented is worth a read, but they are not virologists, either. https://www.wsj.com/articles/covid-19-coronavirus-lab-leak-virology-origins-pandemic-11633462827 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wearing masks, social distancing, not eating in restaurants, not going to large gatherings, ordering food from grab? Non vaccinated will need to continue to do this otherwise sooner or later you will come down with Covid. You may be lucky and have mild case or unluky and die. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet another anti-vaxxer who thinks they had Covid early last year, but was never tested. Anyway, Delta doesn’t care about natural immunity from earlier variants. If you are unvaccinated, the odds are pretty good that you will be exposed, sooner or later, and then you are in danger of going the ventilator route. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just don’t like Covid vaccines because your internet friends send you lies about vaccines, and most of those lies are generated by Russian disinformation factories.

IMO most that won't take the new tech vaccines will be happy to go the same route as the flu jab they get every year. They already have vaccines made the "old way" = inactivated virus. Sinovac and Sinoparm are made that way but as you may have noticed not too effective against Delta varriant. Your afraid of new tech because as an old timer you think progress cannot be made in Medicine and Science? That's how we got vaccines in the first place. I remember when Polio vaccine first came out you needed a shot. Later you could just take an oral drink. Times change. Below are some of the way vaccines are made. https://www.who.int/news-room/feature-stories/detail/the-race-for-a-covid-19-vaccine-explained Edited October 18, 2021 by Tony125 spelling 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flu vaccine will be upgraded to the new technology and will be significantly more effective than the current vaccine, so hopefully more of us will actually get vaccinated for flu. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
