I'm actually not pushing for anything, and since I wasn't following antivaxxers this is all new to me. I guess this was my 10000 moment for the day (https://xkcd.com/1053/)
Sorry if it came off as aggressive, but Marek disease situation is well-loved and ill-interpreted by the antivax crowd, and often brought up even though the similarities between the diseases and their clinical courses alone make them completely incomparable from an epidemiological perspective.
Some quite credible NIH immunologist I know has openly stated that Marek's scenario is very much a valid risk to consider since the very beginning of the pandemic, among many others ofc, including ADE, etc.
Amusingly enough, he also worked on actual mRNA therapeutics for quite some time, in addition to viral delivery vectors in cancer therapeutics. Has a PhD, his h-index is ~15, I think. Triple vaxxed, if you must know his medical status. You should be able to google him rather easily, only 20-40 people in the country that do this.
Looking forward to hear about your credentials.
Remember: science has always been about questioning the dogma. Not the other way around. Criticism and open dissent must be the norm, not something to be scorned and ostracized.
can't believe I'm actually writing this on a technology forum.
