My Wife and I Are Both Fighting SARS-CoV-2 in the Lab
Author's note: The story below was first published on a different platform in May 2020. Many of the fears I expressed in the article have thankfully not come to pass. Specifically ADE (at least of the classical variety) has not proven to be an issue. I still have significant concerns about the medium to long term safety profile of the mRNA vaccines, though obviously not enough to stop me from getting thrice vaccinated with them. The article took a fairly pessimistic tone which I still feel is justified. In many ways I undersold the dangeers. In particular the numerousness and ferocity of the SARS-CoV-2 variants was not something I had foreseen. Overall I still thinks it makes an interesting read and gives a good picture of travel during the early days of the pandemic.
