For reference, we conversed last week where he got mad at me for pointing out that there are concerns that the vaccines might not work as well against the new variants. He thought I was peddling fake news, I guess, and must have subsequently put me on ignore. > [@Who’s been vaccinated?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/who-s-been-vaccinated/928473/599): > > Neither are remotely accepted fact, afaik. ---

You were ‘winning’ (Charlie Sheen style) when you diagnosed Deth’s non-apology ‘apology’. Shoulda stopped there. ---
