Sorry Arthur,
You lost me at "trans-humanist gene therapy, AKA Covid19 Vaccine."
The rest of your message is a bunch of words and jargon that don't
communicate to someone not "in" on the community of discourse to which the
jargon make sense. (That is, engineers don't understand biologist's or
sociologist's terminology.)
While the Toronto Star opinion essay might be a bit hyperbolic, we know
that vaccines work in general, and this one is no exception to the general
vaccine process. Covid-19 is a pretty serious illness. Vaccine risk is far
less then the disease risk.
And scientists are not part of some Grand conspiracy theory, IMHO.
