Favorite quotes of the episode:
“If you are worried about getting mRNA injected into your body, remember, that’s what viruses do, they replicate their genetic material billions of times in your cells.
You are going to meet the RNA one way or another, the question is, do you want to meet 1% of the virus in a vaccine or do you want to meet 100% of it? The question is do you want to meet the whole tiger or just its tail.”
“If you are healthy and have gotten your booster by Thanksgiving or Christmas time, I think you are in a pretty good position to travel.”
“The risk for catching the virus really is the air exchange whether you are in a building or in a plane.”
“In the vaccine world, it’s almost unheard of to get a side-effect with a second or third dose in adults.”
