      I hope it can be contained enough that it won't come to mass vaccination, but after covid I'm not super confident in that anymore. The two injections spaced a month apart should be familiar to people from covid at least. This was the source linked to on wikipedia if you happen to want to read into it more (just a warning, it's a PDF). I wish I could be hopeful that proper measures will be taken ( :xi-plz: ). Maybe the fact that the infection is very visible will help clamp down on people claiming it's fake, but again, it's hard to be sure about anything these days

          I legitimately started doing this a couple weeks ago for this reason. Not banking on living there, but if I could just visit occasionally and be in public spaces with other people without worrying that I'm gonna fucking die...

      From that Wiki article, Jynneos uses a live but non-replicating (and milder) form of vaccinia, so it's supposed to be safe for people with eczema. The section in the wiki is unclear as all hell and looks like it was copied and pasted from a marketing brochure, but the word salad is just stating that ACAM2000 and Dryvax were unsafe for patients with skin conditions, not that Jynneos is.

          I think it was just lifted straight from that NIH page that I linked below with no regard for sentence structure or context, but yeah, we'll have to see what the CDC says in the US. I'm sure Fauci will find a way to fumble it.

          Edit: He so fucking did. "Blame teh gays lol"

            Wikipedia used to be really good for medical topics and scientists because odds were good the actual scientist specializing in whatever it was you wanted to research wrote the damn entry.

            The problem is that the neckbeards cannot distinguish between redundancy and subtle but critical differences, and know absolutely no science whatsoever, so they would merge or delete articles about completely different topics because they thought it was about the same thing. And since seniority and unemployment are the only things that matter when Wikipedia editors have a dispute, the idiots won.

            Long story short, most of the really good Wikipedia articles I had bookmarked from ten years ago are trashed and incoherent or flat out gone now.
