![Oy Vey, goyim! There's a "New Delta Variant", but it's, just get the current jab. [975x829 - 107KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/oNcCkN.jpg){kind=link}
My wife and I have been geeking out on documentaries about the 1800s and 1900s. The common theme throughout all of human history is people sticking sketchy shit in/on/around their bodies they don't understand and then regretting it later (assuming they don't die, and assuming they even made the connection between cause and effect). Brushing your teeth with , eating super white bread adulterated with alum and chalk, mixing mercury in with your food, spreading arsenic and lead all over your face. If people just said "hmm. Well maybe I'll just stick with what we've been doing for hundreds/thousands of years" then you would've been able to avoid 90% of the stupid fuck reasons people die and fuck themselves up throughout history. This is no different. Nothing has changed. We got where we were overwhelmingly through trial and error and these idiots don't realize they are the latest trial.
Always wait for the third or fourth generation of any technology.
I took a magic and medicine history/philosophy course in college (before I gotnserious and shifted to engineering) and your sentiment is basically what we learned. Human progress is iterative. Don't bet your life on new fangled medicine unless you really need to roll the dice for survival.
