Yes, I realize people have taken that publication to an absurd extreme, but that's only because this idea has been circulating in conspiracy circles for decades and such individuals are primed to see this research along those lines.

I don’t follow you. The paper concerns me! It seems perfectly OK then to be concerned about whether this research is still moving forward. Also if you already know of the paper, then why are you pretending to have no idea about where a “vaccine chip” narrative came from?

Because as I noted, current fears are just the latest iteration. They're not the origin. And I only saw that paper yesterday when others linked it.

There are 7 major large global institutes on the paper. Do you think that just b/c they published in 2019 they weren’t developing this technology for years before this one paper? Who knows...but I don’t see why people in this thread are mocking the public’s legitimate concern

If you follow what the concerns are that are being pushed in conspiracy circles versus the actual research in this paper, you'd see they bear almost no relation to each other. Eg https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-coronavirus-bill-gates-micr/false-claim-bill-gates-planning-to-use-microchip-implants-to-fight-coronavirus-idUSKBN21I3EC …

When Bill Gates helped fund that study I linked to (as the article you just linked to confirms)....I think you can give the public a break for questioning if the “dissolvable microneedles” placed under the skin in the study might be used in a Coronavirus vaccine

If you have information to the contrary of course share it widely. Just stop calling people who are concerned about the topic conspiracy theorists and definitely stop mocking people in the process

I give the general public plenty of breaks. I understand most won't ever see the original research. It's the leaders like RFK Jr and others who push the "they're going to forcibly microchip you" narrative who are the targets of my ire.

First, I’ve seen your twitter and you never give the public a break. Ever. Beyond that though what “original research “are you even talking about?

The paper you cite. How many do you think have read it of those who are pushing the "Gates is microchipping people" narrative? I will never give RFK Jr and other grifters a break. But I feel for those who are taken in by their narratives. That included my dad. He died b/c of it.

Nor will I. When it comes to the leaders and organizers of the antivaccine movement and, in particular, the grifters making money spreading antivaccine disinformation, it's no quarter.

I’m really confused and fascinated by why people who are actively endangering public health with specious and alarmist interpretations of data that contort past the point where it retains even an iota of veracity deserve *checks notes* “a break.”
