      If they had made a cure we wouldn’t be living through the biggest wave since it first started, years later, with hundreds if not thousands of people still dying from it daily around the world (never mind the millions left disabled)… 🙄🙄🙄

        It has become endemic, like the flu, AFAIK people are not dying en mass and the hospitals are not overwhelmed with covid cases.

        It’s pretty much over for most of the world. Now its more like the reoccurring Flu outbreaks every year.

      Academia and pharmaceutical companies united to develop the vaccine while the shitmunchers were rioting in the streets because epidemiology is confusing

        And ut couldn’t have possibly been because of your authoritarian reach or anything like that. You were 100% perfect and harmless, and did no wrong whatsoever.

      Individual governments and pharmaceutical companies aren’t enraptured by the same degree of propaganda as your basic idiot citizen.
