Which perfectly explains why different species frequently have different numbers of chromosomes: It's part of how you get a new species.

Imagine a family of these 44 chromosome people dropped on a desert island with another family of 46 chromosome people. Breeding within a chromosome number group is likely to be more successful than outbreeding. Therefore, over time, a couple possibilities are likely.

1. The two groups stop interbreeding much and instead carry on as two indepdendent groups which accumulate more independent mutations over time until they are completely infertile with each other.
2. One of the two groups dies out.
3. They heavily interbreed. This might result in both groups dying out if there aren't enough fertile individuals in successive generations.

Several scenarios could result, over time, with the emergence of a new population that's not interfertile with 46 chromosome humans. A new species.

I believe that's still a point of interest without a definitive answer. There are studies which showthere is circulating spike protein. There are studies which show similar levels of S Protein circulation between vaccination and infection. But there are also studies showing that infection causes higher rates of myocarditis. Both could be true (Spike Protein could be one cause of myocarditis and the higher rates of myocarditis in infected patients being due to compounding causes in addition to the circulating S protein.) But I don't think there is even a definitive answer yet on whether the spike proteins are exclusively responsible for all of the vaccine induced myocarditis.

What about Hebras? Dad horse + mom Zebra. Pretty sure they exist too.

Nope, the needle they use is thin enough that if there wasn't an inflammation, any pain would be minimal (think how long the puncture site hurts after a blood draw.

What hurts is your immune system reaction to the vaccine or it's components (adjuvants) itself, because that's necessary for immunizing against the antigen.

Yup, I used to live on a farm. Any dead animals I came across would disappear over night. Something would come and drag away the corpses.

Take my advice as much as you paid for it, it's worth about the same :)

On the fly math is always scary, especially in online forums where people are quick to be pedantic (I would never do that).

I'd always assumed injection site pain was due to the "injury" of being stabbed with a needle, but it makes more sense that it'd be due to a localized immune reaction.

Do the spike proteins from the mRNA typically remain local in deltoid muscle or do they distribute in significant quantity around the body?

Here's the reference:

>Robertsonian translocations occur in approximately one in every 1000 newborns. Although most Robertsonian translocation carriers are healthy and have a normal lifespan, they are at increased risk of spontaneous abortions and risk of producing unbalanced gametes and, therefore unbalanced offspring. Here we reported a previously undescribed Robertsonian translocation.

Song, J., Sun, L., Xu, S., Liu, N., Yao, Y., Liu, Z., Wang, W., Rong, H. and Wang, B., 2016. A family with Robertsonian translocation: a potential mechanism of speciation in Humans. Molecular Cytogenetics, 9(1), pp.1-7.

To provide an example of a very genetically diverse species: Dogs and wolves can still reproduce. A great dane can reproduce with a chihuahua (with a little help).

Dolphins have the best brain/body ratio of all animals iirc (even beating humans). So I think dolphins are definetively in the conversation.

yeah as soon as I saw "pedantic", I immediately knew that I probably botched my on-the-fly math haha. thanks for the correction good sir or madam.

The structure of the protein is dictated by what the valence electrons do. Electrons are too light to be treated classically - their de Broglie wavelength is about 0.1nm. That means you need quantum mechanics to figure out what they're going to do (electronic structure).

At least for the mRNA vaccines, intravenous injection could be dangerous. In a mouse model, intravenous injection of the vaccine caused myocarditis, so accidental intravenous injection has been suggested as cause for vaccine-induced myocarditis.

Imo, inteligence is the ability to relate information and get the results you want. A good chess player remembers how I move and is able to use that to move the situation towards his prefered state (winning).

Google "theory of multiple intelligences", it describes different areas where one can be proficient. For example, logical reasoning, social skills, music, etc. Noone has ever created a good metric for "general inteligence" or how smart you are in total, and it is debated if such a thing even makes sense.

But that requires a substantial population of 44 chromosome people to already exist, at least enough to avoid extreme inbreeding depression.

Sometimes. Have you seen the pictures of the beaches in Scotland coated in thousands and thousands of dead seabirds? Nesting colonies are being hit hard by the latest bird flu variant.
