What?

They can't hear you over their tin foil full body suit

‘Vaccines were from the height of the pandemic‘. I believe they meant that since these doses are 2-3 years old, and the virus has mutated several times… these destroyed vaccines are ineffective at this point. Not that vaccines in general don’t work.

That's what I was hoping they meant, but the wording and post history made me think otherwise

I agree the doses should have been discarded, the headline is more about the logistics and distribution of vaccines in a pandemic situation

I just quickly read the bot TLDR, and assumed the best intentions by the poster… I forget myself at times.
