Whenever you hear someone sneer about scientific research that seems useless to them — “they’re studying the spit of lizards?!” — remind them that’s exactly how we got Ozempic.

If your response to what’s happening is
“Well, they’ll learn their lesson when it hurts them. They need to see what they have done”
I’m going to remind you of the breadlines, the freezer trucks for bodies, the isolation, and the million dead Americans.
They’ll never see their mistakes.
