This reminds me of a case where a British court and an American court each ordered litigants not to litigate a case in the other's court.This was in law school decades ago and I'm too lazy to look it up, but it's the same kind of issue where if you want to do business in either country you can get easily screwed.

Fun fact, Ackman is a hardline Trump supporter who helped get him elected.

" suffering a brain hemorrhage that would render her unable to move, speak or see,"

And they went with sight in the headline? Being unable to move is waaaaay worse.

Anyway, I feel bad for her and him (though he's a right-wing nutjob who has used his wealth to help drag down American society).

The US produces more manufacturing output than every other country on earth other than China.

Yeah, the products were better under Cook.

When you use that many italics to emphasize words it's a good sign you need psychiatric help.

It's appropriate for a Chess.com story given their app now has ads by sketchy, low-class companies

The male/female ratio in China isn't that skewed, it's something like 106:100. A lot of it is probably the same thing you see in every other country, where both men and women lose social skills and have unrealistic standards of what kind of partner they are entitled to.

Right-wingers have been loudly cheering the inevitable economic downfall of California for years as its economy continues to grow. It must be so infuriating to them that Commiefornia just keeps getting richer.

"After 9 years as a US citizen, he could run for the US Senate. He would be 76 (or 74) years old.In short, it looks highly unlikely that he could (or even would) run for the US Senate."

Yeah, he would be way too young for our Senate.

I feel bad for entry-level folks -- though continually surprised how many of them outsource so much of their thinking to AI themselves. It seems like most college students cheat with AI, making them less useful as entry-level employees.

And you think the fact that carbon dioxide has steadily increased over the past 150 years or as we pump a lot of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere is a coincidence? You honestly believe that there is zero connection between pumping gigatons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and there being gigatons more carbon dioxide in the air than pre-industrial times? Completely unrelated events?

You're incorrect. You couldn't be more wrong.

In the case of old-style vaccines, the antigen is not attached to any cells. The only thing that the immune system attacks is the antigen.

For mRNA, you want the mRNA to stay local, since the mechanism has your own cells producing antigen, and those *cells* are attacked. Not an issue with muscle cells.

However,if the mRNA enters the bloodstream, it means that actual organ cells may be the target of the immune response, which in turn causes inflammation. The heart? Myocarditis, pericarditis. The ovaries? Sudden erratic periods. The brain? Brain fog.

This is why there were negative side effects. See: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/a... - tl;dr is easily read in their conclusion:

"A wide distribution of vaccine mRNA in organs can lead to systemic adverse effects and, therefore, there would be a need in the future to develop lipid nanoparticles allowing targeted delivery of mRNA vaccines in specific cells..."

So no, you absolutely don't want a "generalized response" - at least, not from the underlying mRNA mechanism.

That's not how mRNA vaccines work, or at least, how they were advertised to work. You will not find any cite that indicates that they're supposed to enter the bloodstream. They were supposed to stay at the local site, and produce the antigen at the local site of injection.

See: https://www.cdc.gov/covid/vacc...

It clearly says:

"After vaccination, the mRNA will enter the muscle cells. Once inside, they use the cells' machinery to produce a harmless piece of what is called the spike protein."

Happy to see evidence to the contrary, but I doubt that you'll be able to produce it.

Didn't know that mRNA vax is not even cost effective for the most part.

I forgot one other issue:

* The mRNA has huge variation in how long it's in effect, in addition to how much antigen it produces. Not an issue with "old school" vaccines.

No more mRNA vax for me.
