Wonder why?

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
God I hope China actually does create a virus to wipe out the antivax dumbasses.
I think covid might have put a pin in anyone planning to try to take the world using a virus. Two main problems:
These two items work against each other. If you try to make a virus that will infect the entire herd, it might be more likely to also be able to attack you regardless of what vaccines you have. If you try to make a virus that won't be able to escape your vaccine's immunity, then the herd might just develop immunity themselves and the virus dies out after only killing a small portion of the population.
So given that, I don't think a weaponized virus is an effective tool to eliminate enemies with because it's both too risky and too unreliable.
I know multiple people who had kids and they didnt get then any vaccines (religion).
I'm wary of even being around those kids.
Unfortunately most antivaxers are vaccinated. It's their children who will suffer
They would never do anything like that twice.
