Testing is way safer at this point than two doses against a strain that hasn't been dominant since late 2020. Lots of people are getting sick anyways even if they are vaccinated from other strains they aren't protected against, yet we discriminate against anyone who decided not to get the shot for religious reasons, or who can't get it for medical reasons.
The world will look back on these years as collective insanity.
I'm a biochemist, and I can assure you that scientists have been dismayed at the collective insanity since around March 2020, but we're definitely not dismayed at the same things as you are.
Any scientist who isnt deeply ashamed of this should really get the money for their degree back.
Pretending that vaccines are in any way safer then or as safe as actual tests is simply horrific.
