So what part of the opinion piece do you disagree with?
- That they should release the study information related to testing of the various vaccines?
- Or do you disagree with the fact that the FDA doesn't want to release certain information for 75 years?
And which of the above is right wing and not worthy of discussion?
Do you prefer not to know what their testing shows? And what rational basis would the FDA have for asking for a 75 yr delay in releasing information?
The vaccines do not: provide complete protection to the vaccinated, confer immunity on par or better than prior infection, and do not prevent transmission. If all of this is true, then mandates don't make sense, the logic fails.

This is where I take issue. The vaccine, especially with a booster has shown to reduce infection. Is it 100% no, but we've gone over that over and over again. Every study, and every Bay Area county, has it around 70-75% reduction in infection. The data is clear. The counter argument you always come back with is natural immunity. Again, uninformed and misguided. The vaccine is much safer than taking a chance on getting infected and hoping you just have mild symptoms. On top of that, the vaccine helps reduce strain on our systems. The natural immunity path is not as predictable and there's no way to reverse course once you go that direction.
I personally don't care if y'all get the vaccine or not. Your choice. I've been clear about that since day one. I'm not pro-mandate. I am pro-logic. The politicization of this issue is the real drag -- and is abundantly present on this thread.
The problem is that it's not as cut and dry as you think it is. While they may reduce infection, 1) the effect seems to be only temporary, and 2) it isn't enough to control mass outbreaks (see Vermont, Spain, Ireland, Gibraltar, Germany, Israel, the United Arab Emirates). It means we don't really have much of a choice...in the end natural immunity, whether you like it or not, will be the only way out of it as it moves towards endemic status. You claim you don't like politicization, but then don't realize it is exactly what you are doing too by only focusing on on side of the situation. For some groups, the vaccine might not be warranted (like Norway has concluded for all but the most immunocompromised kids) and for others boosting may not be warranted (such as young men, particularly with Moderna). But yes, everyone over 40 that hasn't had it should get vaccinated (those over 30 should seriously consider it) and anyone over 70 should get boosted (those over 60 should seriously consider it) due to disease severity.
Longer than the vaccineHow long does natural immunity last?
You certainly like to minsconstrue my position. I assure you I'm neither uninformed nor misguided. I am clearly pro-vaccine to those most vulnerable. I am pro vaccine if you choose to get one. I am not pro forcing people to vaccinate healthy members of their family because others are scared, even if vaccinated. Please point out where I fall back on relying on natural immunity for everyone. Point out the clear data that indicates we should vaccinate healthy children? It's important to age stratify risk, especially when dealing with pharma products still under EUA. It's a basic principle.This is where I take issue. The vaccine, especially with a booster has shown to reduce infection. Is it 100% no, but we've gone over that over and over again.

Since the polybasic furin site came up again, media speculation that this is some kind of smoking gun regarding origin is good for clicks and political theater but that's about it. The current state of the matter is that it really does not weigh in one way or another. Natural origin or accidental lab leak remain the two most probable interpretations. There is as of yet no firm proof of either scenario and neither one has been eliminated as a possibility.

Do some research so you don't post the above CCCP Lies.
The CCCP and NIAID/NIH are joined at the hip with the Angel of Death
distributing the funds used for the Criminal acts out of the Wuhan Lab.
Unless you've personally seen a Bat injecting four strands of the HIV virus
into the (SARS-CoV) strand in a public setting to create the current Covid-19
strain and letting it " Fly ", I suggest you do some deep investigating and
bone up on the basics.
Here's a start:

That's right the very NIH has the basics and the TRUTH !
Imagine that.

What a bunch of crap. You tell me how a DNA based retrovirus like HIV gets engineered into a completely unrelated RNA based cornavirus. That should be fun. BTW shouldn't it be 13 coils instead of 13 knots. Won't ever slide that way.
