The Geek's Raven
[An excerpt, with thanks to Marcus Bales]

Once upon a midnight dreary,
fingers cramped and vision bleary,
System manuals piled high and wasted paper on the floor,
Longing for the warmth of bedsheets,
Still I sat there, doing spreadsheets:
Having reached the bottom line,
I took a floppy from the drawer.
Typing with a steady hand, I then invoked the SAVE command
But got instead a reprimand: it read "Abort, Retry, Ignore".

COVID vaccines favor the evolution of the Coronavirus

Quite aside from the possibility of direct mutagenic effects from the anti-viral drugs used in vaccines, there is the very basic evolutionary principle of survival of the fittest. Obviously, the very intention of the COVID vaccines is to create a hostile environment for the Coronavirus, one in which the standard versions of the virus cannot survive. Consequently, competition for any viral mutations is dramatically reduced, making it much easier for them to survive and reproduce. Hence, the survival of mutations is directly favored by the very vaccines intended to destroy them. Now, if it were possible to create vaccines that were 100% effective, and could instantly be applied to 100% of the world population, this would not be a problem. However, this is not close to being possible. If a disease is not extremely contagious -- like Polio -- mutations are much less of a problem. If a disease is extremely contagious, like COVID, the Flu or the common cold, mutations occur so readily that it is virtually impossible to eradicate. Mutations will overwhelm any attempt at vaccination, very quickly indeed. As we are seeing, right now.
