DOCUMENTS OBTAINED BY The Intercept contain new evidence that the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the nearby Wuhan University Center for Animal Experiment, along with their collaborator, the U.S.-based nonprofit EcoHealth Alliance, have engaged in what the U.S. government defines as “gain-of-function research of concern,” intentionally making viruses more pathogenic or transmissible in order to study them, despite stipulations from a U.S. funding agency that the money not be used for that purpose.

I see a lot of weasel words in that.

It's a weasel paragraph.  "Documents obtained", "new evidence", "US based non-profit" who is somehow related to Fauci?

Wuhan may have made GoF studies unbeknownst to other folks.  Or not.

GoF strikes me as in the eyes of the beholder.

I put a mask on for the first time in months Sunday afternoon - the mayor of Lincoln NE likes masks

no masks in OKC or Norman, OK

the good news?...  My daughter and her boyfriend each got the vax today.  They are around 25 years old.

the motivation to do it now?????  a concert in Kansas City is requiring proof.

^^^^

That's the kind of stuff that's gonna tip people in.

If only the messaging was more clear, we wouldn't have to coax people to get it.

ACL Festival here in Austin is requiring proof of vaccination, or a negative test within 72 hours, for entry.  Hopefully it spurs some folks to get vaccinated, knowing that the logistics of 200,000 people getting negative tests in the area, all at the same time, will be challenging.

the negative test can cost $$ and is only good once

the Vax is free and is good for a season of events

easy decision

Makes sense to me.  I'm already vaxed but if I weren't, and wanted to attend the festival, it'd probably urge me to do so.

Of course, I hate crowds and I haven't been to a large music festival in years.  Probably decades at this point.  Just not my cup of tea.

I see some "Project Veritas" video with some doctor disparaging the vax making the rounds today.  

I'm pretty sure I could find MDs somewhere who claimed the moon landings were faked.
