Ecology
gollark: It would be extremely hard to fake an entire pandemic and consequent excess death counts and whatever.
gollark: Wait, *which* vaccine? There are quite a few.
gollark: I think I read that T-cell or something response lasted much longer.
gollark: Also, you can do *some* fun stuff without going out much, and criticizing other people because their priorities do not match yours/they weight risk more is somewhat bees.
gollark: (I'm sure some people will be stupid and think they're entirely safe after just one...)
