Speaking of shots the doc on the medcram channel on youtube was talking about a TB vaccination that may be helpful in boosting your immune system against viruses. I don't know if this guy is a crank but he seemed like a convincing crank to me.

There was a satellite photo in the news showing mass graves prepared in Iran. The virus there is on the level of Italy, likely worse.
