Yes, like gmo crops, it's kind of a test run each batch. Wait a month after new vaccine is out, at minimum.

I'm getting a 2nd shingles shot soon.

Metal shingles combine the best of both. These ones were installed some time in the 1960s.

bunchamorons, Roman numerals are not compatible with modern maths. Arab/Indian numerals and the positional system to give powers of 10 are so convenient and practical that going back on that is preternaturally stupid, and I say that as a guy who is permananently shut off any serious mathematics.

This is 'Murica. We use Christian numerals here. If they were good enough for Jesus, they're good enough for me. :FBM:

Why do we still call them Arabic? They bear no resemblance to current written Arabic.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.
