It should not come as a surprise that you were not interested in a serious answer to your questions.
Instead we get the shrill panicked rants of the paranoiac conspiracy theorist convinced that every medical professional has been bribed by large pharmaceutical companies.

So you're not really qualified to talk about the pandemic either based on the criteria used by the Covidians?A Doctor and a fellow of Harvard University....How about you?

I accept that criticism. But I think I'm qualified to read about it and share that information.
You still haven't shared your qualifications.
Did you graduate from high school or college? No shame in that. I have met plenty of smart , well read people who dont have a high school diploma.

Post Middle School graduation or post High School graduation?
'cos I was not aware that general "science" was a post graduate discipline in universities..... but then I dont follow all the courses that are available at correspondence and online colleges.

Someone has pointed out to me that the University of South Dakota does a Master of Science in Kinesiology (aka Exercise), and Florida Southern College does a MSc in Citrus Growing.
Who knew?
One of the lesser know side benefits of democracy and capitalism I guess.

I've been thinking of getting a commemorative hoodie but can't decide if it should be Southern New Hampshire or Univ of Phoenix.

Amazing that someone actually took the time to write a fantasy novel like that.

Obviously more than you have.
Have you read the latest research from Oxford Univeristy that shows Unviersity students shouldn't get the booster shot as the risk of vaccine harm is greater than any benefit?
Cite please
This isn't from Oxford - it's from the US.
To be clear, they're talking about the booster series, not the primary vaccination.
"Based on public data provided by the CDC 18 , we estimate that approximately 22,000 to 30,000
previous uninfected young adults ages 18–29 years must be boosted with an mRNA vaccine to
prevent one Covid-19 hospitalisation. Given the fact that this estimate does not take into account the protection conferred by prior infection nor a risk-adjustment for comorbidity status, this should be considered a conservative and optimistic assessment of benefit. Our estimate shows that university Covid-19 vaccine mandates are likely to cause net expected harms to young healthy adults—between 18 and 98 serious adverse events requiring hospitalisation and 1373 to 3234 disruptions of daily activities—that is not outweighed by a proportionate public health benefit.
