Would you be as inclined to refuse a vaccine for say, Ebola if it became a global pandemic? Curious if the severity of the disease/risk of death would sway your principles…. Yes = ❤️ No = 😆

Yes obviously I’d consider it for a disease that has a 50% mortality rate. That is the entire point of the risk/reward calculation people speak of.

Point taken. More appropriate to simply illustrate that EUA is not that rare and is a critical part of the evolution of medical care - rather than stating in a way that insinuates those situations are the same.

If the effect of Ebola had effect the same on my age group as Covid, and if I had antibodies from a previous infection like I do with Covid, coupled with mandates and aggressive coercion I would refuse

I am scheduled to fly from NYC to Mumbai via Paris next Wednesday (Jan 5) for a ~10 day trip.

I’ve had all recommended vaccine shots and I’m only in Paris for a 2 hour layover (not leaving the airport). Any information on this would be greatly appreciated!

How do you all deal with the guilt of leaving a comany/ team? I have been working at Microsoft for 1 year now, and seriously considering moving. I find the code base to be very legacy and I mostly work on obscure bugs that I spend so much time on, mostly due to navigating this large code base and not having much docs to refer to. Hence I find the job slightly unsatisfying, and that I could learn more elsewhere. However, I love the wlb, the team and company culture. The guilt stops my applying.
