I cant see trump losing to Biden, if anything i think it’ll be an easier win for him then against Hillary. Biden can barely string a sentence together, get those 2 in the debates and Trump is going to eat him alive. The Democrats have chosen the wrong candidate yet again and will spend the next 5 years calling everyone racist and blaming Russians without realizing their own mistakes

Surely tests also record “false positives”.
If the test has shown no false positives, then if you are tested and it shows you have antibodies (ie you have had it before or been born with them somehow) then you have antibodies. And you have antibodies then you have as much chance of getting the disease as being vaccinated against it.
And if vaccination is the best protection we have, then you are as clear as we can make it.

This is certainly an interesting article. It may seem’ likely’ to John Lloyd that Donald Trump will lose the presidential election. At the time this piece was posted every single bookmaker on oddschecker.com (there are more than 20) has Donald Trump as favourite for the contest. Assuming for the sake of simplicity that there are only two relevant runners, in broad terms, bookmakers price a Trump win at 55% and a Biden victory at 45%.

This is a fascinating, if somewhat depressing, analysis. However, did the great Richard Pipes really believe that Russia was fated to repeat the past? In “Russia under the Bolshevik Regime” he seemed to suggest something quite different, which should inspire people anywhere living under any authoritarian or totalitarian regime: “As experience has confirmed time and again, man is not an inanimate object but a creature with his own aspirations and will _ not a mechanical but a biological entity. Even if subjected to the fiercest dressage, he cannot pass on the lessons he has learned to his children, who come into this world ever fresh, asking questions that are supposed to have been settled once and for all.”
