My fear on vaccines now is that the manufacturers may start putting something that's not fully tested such as the MRNA in the Covid "vaccines" in order to obtain something new to provide a new license/revenue stream as opposed to something that's tried and true but whose profit margin is down. My personal battles with the Covid vaccine have left me highly skeptical and until the manufacturers AND the government come clean, I'll remain highly skeptical.

I of course believe vaccines work. However like everything in science and the real world it is more complex than the standard science communicator makes it out. (1) MRNA vaccines are different from previous vaccines are and not as effective in that they only give a portion of the virus for the antibodies to fight against. In the Covid case it was the spike protein. (2) When they inject the spike protein in you it can still cause some damage and some the antibodies response can be harsh, this maybe because you need a larger dose of this stuff or it is more concentrated. (3) it is not as tested as other vaccines, which typically take 10 years of testing, Covid was rushed so it is natural to think it would cause more side effects. However you have to weigh in other factors like you could died of Covid if you did not have the vaccine so the side effects beat the alternative.

It does look like a lot of people who had the vaccine had some long term side effects, the issue is if this can be shown to be due to the vaccine, the lockdown, or having had Covid. It is not as easy as it looks to distinguish these. The problem is (1) older people and less healthy people took the vaccine more often so they could had many other issues that would have came up anyway. (2) These this same group of people probably did get Covid at some point and it could have had long lasting effects. (3) Sitting in your house for 2 years and not talking to anyone can also have long term effects. (4) having multiple doses of the vaccine could have some percentage of people that had issues. (5) Combinations of these,
you are old sick before the pandemic, got Covid, did not exercise for 2 years and did get some minor effects of the vaccine, so now you only blame the vaccine.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

By scooby
Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

By scooby
The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

Rumor corner

By scooby
LLNS may have excluded the wrong people in last VSSOP? The exclusions were based on outdated job categories and related skills. ULM are now thinking that in the future, job categories and functional areas will have to be re-defined. The next VSSOP/ISP will be based on the new categories and functional areas. The questions I have are: 1) Why didnt they think of that before the transition. It seems like their style is “change things as you go”. Planning is out the window! 2) Who will give input on the new changes? The next RIF apparently is going to be more lucrative than the VSSOP. Depending on the length of employment, a RIFed person, not only gets their 1 week pay per year of service but also from 30 to 120 days notice, essentially 30 to 120 days pay. Please feel free to comment on the rumors or add new ones you actually heard.
