I'm not talking about fiction. I'm talking about "educated" people posting questions here to get help with Access.


Since nicotine is addictive, I have no problem with that. My problem is that it should be looked at as a safer (NOT SAFE) alternative to cigarettes and certainly more desirable in public because there are no secondhand effects. But instead it is smeared as if it were even more evil than smoking. As a former smoker, I am pretty sensitive to what anti-smokers will resort to to keep other people from doing something they desperately want to do but can't because - whatever. Most people don't quit smoking by choice. They are coerced into it and they can never, ever forgive anyone who still smokes because they can't.

Yes, I think we're on the same page.

The place where it deserves to be smeared is if/when it markets to kids. Vaping among school kids has become extremely popular (possibly more popular than cigarettes ever was, as far as being 'cool') - and so millions of people who never had any nicotine addiction in the first place are willingly starting. Now THAT's just insane.

But absolutely - the 1) ex smokers who are becoming healthier, and 2) adults who choose for whatever reason, ought to have at it.

Personally I've made what I think might be the 'last' switch for a while: Pouches that you just park in your cheek. No smoke, no choking sugary sweeteners going in your lungs, just nicotine.

It also works for global warming!

In the near future: Have you or a loved one experienced heart issues or even death from taking Covid-19 vaccines? You maybe entitled to compensation. But you must hurry time is running out.

Yes some amusing comments, am certain no one who posted on this thread lost a loved one to covid.

How will one be able to prove it? Instead of compensation, those who came up with the vaccine should be prosecuted at least for man slaughter.

That would be incorrect. I have lost 2...

Apologies for generalizing.

This "new" study is now 6 months old, but if should also have us question the validity of the hysterical frear mongering you must get vaccinated or be excised from humanity approach that we have been experiencing for the past two years.

Some people might be genetically resistant to COVID-19, new study says

The coronavirus came out of nowhere. Some people weren’t infected. Here’s one reason why.

Not sure where you are getting this information.

I made it up on the fly after watching day time television commercials.

At some point, you will decide to quit

Me? I don't smoke

If the Covid-19 shots were given away for free because they're life-saving, why isn't insulin free? Chemotherapy? Epipens?

I absolutely love the "Monkeypox" issue that is coming out. Since COVID is getting stale in the public eye, let's find a NEW disease to whip everyone into a frenzy. COVID has gotten boring and too hard to milk for much more angst. Monkey pox is just the ticket for a NEW round of chicken-little, sky-is-falling fervor.

Oh, but let's consider the implications of humans getting monkey pox in the grander scientific scale. It is rare for a disease to spread from one species to another unless they are very closely related. Therefore, monkeys and humans could only share susceptibility to this pox if they were evolutionary cousins. Wow, maybe we and the monkeys actually DID descend from a common hominid ancestor. So maybe this monkey pox outbreak PROVES that we are closer than we thought to our distant cousins. It yet again provides strong evidence that we WERE descended from some earlier hominid ape.

But then, what about COVID? The early part of the first outbreak of COVID in China included a discussion of how they thought it came from infected bats. Actually, it would make plenty of sense if the first human victims in China were from the Chinese tax collection agency. Then the disease would have spread from one bloodsucker to another.

(Sorry, some jokes just present themselves and I have a congenital weakness for joke delivery.)

That's where the geneticists come in, they will fiddle with it until it's absolutely lethal to humans.

The diseases associated with swine include ringworm, erysipelas, leptospirosis, streptococcosis, campylobacterosis, salmonellosis, cryptosporidiosis, giardiasis, balantidiasis, influenza, infection with pathogenic E. coli, and brucellosis. The majority of swine housed at WSU are bred and raised under controlled conditions and are unlikely to carry pathogens that could be transferred to people.

B virus infection is extremely rare, but it can lead to severe brain damage or death if you do not get treatment immediately. People typically get infected with B virus if they are bitten or scratched by an infected macaque monkey, or have contact with the monkey’s eyes, nose, or mouth. Only one case has been documented of an infected person spreading B virus to another person.

Maybe we were descended from some earlier pigs

Maybe we were descended from some earlier pigs

We have the greater-male chauvinistic pig that still exists today. Almost hunted to extinction, it is only a matter of time before these old white men are wiped out completely. Welcome the birth of the asexual, androgynous, lesser-male pig, who hides in the social undergrowth under confused pronouns and women's sports.
