8/ If you claim COVID is like the flu, yet can’t explain endothelial dysfunction or microclots, you’ve confused vibes with science.

9/ If you don’t understand long-term sequelae but insist the pandemic is “over”—congrats, you’re doing PR for the virus.

10/ Science isn’t about titles. It’s about evidence. And the evidence is clear: COVID isn’t done with us—just because you’re done with COVID.

11/ If you think “endemic” = “harmless,” you don’t know history. Malaria is endemic. Tuberculosis is endemic. Both still kill millions.

15/ If you say “everyone will get it anyway,” you’ve confused inevitability with policy failure.
