*puts on hard hat, respirator, asbestos gloves* (hey i haven't used these in awhile!)
okay. i'm seeing the same claims on my TL over & over that quite frankly, make no sense. & now they're starting to broken-telephone into each other so:
my thoughts on vaccine schedule.
but say just that. we know this works, we don't know about other regimes.
primary seroconversion takes about 2 weeks (that's why the attack rate in the trials was still high then, then fell off a cliff).
as an aside, a few things that i keep hearing that further make no sense:
it means that if 100 of you sign up for Tai-Tai's Cluster Dancing Lessons (so fresh you're guaranteed to go viral!), only 5 (or 30) of you will contract #COVIDー19 after attending.
none of this is new, we've studied this extensively for MMR: https://t.co/zRf61T1qcO
i stand by this claim, even more strongly than before: https://t.co/5YlJNPGmLO
here's a hot take: a reason, & a very important one *FOR* running a 1 dose vs. 2 dose vaccine RCT is *because* some people will miss the second dose. it will happen.

people forget.
gov'ts fuck up, under-order, fuck up distribution.
supply chains can break down.
we can yell at each other over what is optimal until we are blue in the face & we all hate each other for no reason, or...
to say nothing of countries that can only afford 1 dose/person this year.

It is astonishing the number of pies they had their dirty little fingers poking into:

1. DARPA/DTRA use NGOs like Ecohealth or Metabiota to collect new pathogens
2. They are sent to US labs (Mailman, Rocky Mountain, Atlanta CDC, UNC, USAMRIID) for GOF work by Lipkin, Nichols, Rasmussen, Baric, Dension, Munster, etchttps://t.co/wqhHK7uZO6

How do I know they have NDAs, if they can't talk legally about them? Because they trusted me with their secrets... after I said something. That's how they knew I was safe.
And if the environment at the org was toxic or abusive, it is not uncommon to not realize the extent of that toxicity/abuse until after you're out. But by the time you realize that you signed under duress and presumed good faith where none existed, you're out of options.

Some of the people who have reached out to me privately have been sitting with the pain of what happened to them and the regret that they signed for YEARS. But at the time, it didn't seem like they had any other option BUT to sign.
I do not blame *anyone* for signing an NDA, especially when it's attached to a financial lifeline. When you feel like your family's wellbeing is at stake, you'll do anything -- even sign away your own voice -- to provide for them. That's not a "choice"; that's survival.
And yes, many of the people whose stories I now know were pressured into signing an NDA by my husband's ex-employer. Some of whom I *never* would have guessed. People I thought "left well." Turns out, they've just been *very* good at abiding by the terms of their NDA.
(And others who have reached out had similar experiences with other Christian orgs. Turns out abuse, and the use of NDAs to cover up that abuse, is rampant in a LOT of places.)
