The Pandemic is over, and, while covid still lurks, this subject is swiftly becoming a non-newsworthy subject. Mind you, don't be stupid about this virus, for it will yet return in various ways. In the future, though, until this happens, Thursdays will thus evolve into my health and medical advances day. So for today, from Worldometer:

- But many countries don't report anymore.

- That article says that is not a biological question anymore, it's technological.
- Designer babies will be the norm.
- But, more so, it goes on to say the shape and size will depend on whether that body is on Mars or....
- Perhaps a cyborg.
- I think we won't exist, for AI will eliminate us for being a competitor. Read my posting of this past Sunday on God, Evolution and Artificial Intelligence.
