Comment on The fact that people this stupid exist

Saying these were rushed is a flat out lie.

They were rushed in that they did rush to accelerate the development- largely through increased development. However, that does not make them unsafe. Of course investing more into research can generally speed it up.

The only thing that was accelerated was the scale of the tech infrastructure and the testing to target this specific variant of coronavirus. Coronavirus vaccines, and the modern technology to deliver the vaccines, was developed and piloted long before the COVID 19 started floating around.
We were lucky AF.
