Grok: No, that 2021 position is not fully still Elon Musk’s view...His stance has evolved. He continues to describe himself as generally pro-vaccine and supportive of mRNA technology’s potential, but he has become notably more critical of COVID-specific vaccines (especially repeated mRNA doses/boosters), dosing intensity, mandates, and the strength of the supporting science as presented at the time. He has also shared personal adverse experiences.

@DrNeilStone Neil, Ebola requires direct contact with infected body fluids and is not airborne. I'm not an embalmer, are you?

@simonmaechling "Could" is simply a hypothesis here.

@DrNeilStone It's pretty rare to have causation without correlation though.

Marcia Angell, former editor-in-chief of the New England Journal of Medicine 2009: "It is simply no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research that is published, or to rely on the judgment of trusted physicians or authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure in this conclusion, which I reached slowly and reluctantly over my two decades as editor of The New England Journal of Medicine." Richard Horton editor-in-chief of The Lancet 2015: "The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness."

@simonmaechling Standard CRISPR-Cas9 specificity fluctuates widely; some single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) achieve high precision with zero off-target cuts, while others can bind and cut dozens or even over a hundred unintended sites across the genome. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC46…

In the Handbook of Medicinal Herbs Dr. James Duke introduced an LD50 based standardized safety ranking system for roughly 1,000 medicinal plants using coffee as his universal yardstick for safety. Only10-12% fell into the dangerous/expert only category. Imagine grading pharmaceuticals on this scale.
