The ability of tech bros to "invent" something that had existed for decades, and often do it worse than what already existed is fucking amazing, but nowhere as amazing as the breathless reactions by media who then play it up like this is the dawning of a golden age

"Without vaccines, 🇺🇸would have experienced 4 times as many deaths, 1.5 times more infections, and 3.8 times more hospitalizations since December 2020. The vaccines also saved $1 trillion in medical costs."
