You talk about graphene but what do you actually know about it?
Look at this a seperate thing from you bringing up what you consider to be ludicrous claims which is your way of downplaying this by mentioning things nobody here is stating. Like mentioning flat earth, like mentioning lizard men.
Dont try to skew this question as some validation that the vaccine contains this or that. Its nothing to do with that, i wanna know what you know.
Go ahead and express the full of extent of your knowledge of what its capable of.

It runs stories that hew the Kremlin line, such as how the poisoning of a double agent in England was staged by British intelligence operation or how the Steele Dossier was created by Internet trolls. Throw in commentary from a self-described “Kremlin troll” and writings from Russia Insider (which the Trump State Department describes as “an English-language publication linked to pro-[Russian] government oligarchs”) and you see how many think Zero Hedge is some kind of Russian disinformation operation.
Despite its pro-Russia leanings, or perhaps because of them, Zero Hedge a critical part of the right-wing conspiracy ecosystem. This became clear when Facebook temporarily blocked Zero Hedge in March, prompting howls of outrage from people in President Trump’s circle like his son, Don Jr., Nigel Farage, and Katie Hopkins. (The ban was lifted, and Facebook told Breibart that it was the result of a “mistake with our automation to detect spam.”)
All posts on Zero Hedge are written under the pseudonym of Tyler Durden, the character played by Brad Pitt in the film Fight Club. “Anonymity is a shield from the tyranny of the majority,” reads the Zero Hedge “manifesto.”
Of course, anonymity is also a shield for someone who has something to hide.
In a 2016, a former Zero Hedge employee named Colin Lokey, who wrote much of the site’s political content, told Bloomberg that he felt pressure to frame issues on the site in a way that felt disingenuous.

Still never tested positive for it. Still only had 1st doses. Been exposed numerous times.
Heck, this area was laid low with ragweed allergies this week. I felt so bad that I COVID tested, and I wasn't alone. I think half the region did. 11 of our tourney competitors dropped out over ragweed.
Still tested negative despite COVID being apparently active in this area.
It's not like I don't test. I am required to go out every day. My job requires me to be onsite. I get exposed. I test. Where is my contamination because lord knows I DO NOT MASK.
9. The evidence on effectiveness of masks for source control (for example stopping infectious people — pre-symptomatic/asymptomatic — from infecting others) is weak. Evidence for protecting the mask wearer from becoming infected is also weak. The unusual situation for COVID is the relatively high infectiousness before symptoms appear.
10. Overall, the evidence that exists is marginally positive for the use of masks
11. The effect of wearing a mask is likely to be small but not zero. The RCT evidence is weak and it would be unreasonable to claim a large benefit from wearing a mask.
18. By contrast, SAGE does not think there is good evidence for use for long periods where people regularly mix with the same people.
20. The evidence does not support a recommendation to wear masks outdoors in either urban or non-urban environments, unless in an unavoidable crowded situation.
21. This advice does not replace or change existing advice on other measures — such as hand washing, 2-metre distancing and self-isolation — which remain more important (because of stronger evidence and larger effects).

Where I am right now Covid hasn't really been a thing in the best part of a year. No mask wearing, no social distancing, no nothing. Cases are limited, deaths are more or less non-existent.
If you want a booster you need to book it in with your flu shot or something as they're not doing it centrally any more.
The reason: Because we all masked, distanced and vaxxed when we were originally asked to.
It's also quite likely that you had covid but never noticed. A lot of people just get the sniffles, it's a head cold at worst for them. You might just have sneezed a few times and that was it.

I had a text message about 6 weeks ago saying if I wanted a booster I could have one.
That's some epic level pressure and coercion right there.
