uclear in America, how can we get it in space? Now the expert explained that because it's space, the type of energy you can use up there is not every kind of energy. You couldn't burn oil or you can't use coal in space. You can't run an extension cord for electricity. So there's lots of things you can't do to get energy in space. But the one thing you can do is nuclear. In fact we already do it. I…

They're taken completely out of the game because they won't get it and they won't transmit it if it's not leaky. But our vaccines are leaky. So in that case do they cause more variants or fewer?
Well let me tell you about the chicken vaccination. The case of the chicken vaccination does tell you something I think about the coronavirus vaccination. It does tell you something and it's important except that it tells you the opposite of what you think. Here's the problem with the chicken virus. It was completely different, opposite really from coronavirus. What is the thing everybody says about coronavirus? Damn it, it only kills less than one percent of the people who get it and most of them are old, right? So coronavirus is a virus that kills almost nobody percentage-wise. There's still a lot of people number-wise. The chicken virus would have killed all the chickens fairly quickly. So without a vaccine the chicken virus basically just takes out the chicken. So they give the chicken a vaccine but then it can still get the virus. And now the chicken that would have been dead and couldn't spread is a chicken that's very much alive and spreading like crazy. The study about the chickens proves the opposite point than the people who are sending it to me think. What they think is that it shows that vaccinations cause more variants. What it really shows is that if you have more virus everywhere you get more variants because these vaccinated chickens are just full of virus almost as if they had not been vaccinated in the classic way. So keeping chickens alive so they can spread virus like crazy causes more variants because there's more virus. Because there's more virus. So the more virus, the more variants. It probably isn't because of the vaccination.
Now go to coronavirus. You get a vaccination for coronavirus. Is it the va

ccination that causes you to live longer? No. The thing that caused you to live longer is that the coronavirus doesn't kill you in the first place except less than one percent. So where the chicken virus kept chickens alive that would have otherwise not spread because they would have been dead, the coronavirus doesn't keep anybody alive as a percentage. Okay, I shouldn't put that in an absolute. A…
