      “Low technology.”

      I think of “low tech” as something that you could with some materials and knowledge do yourself out of a garage.

      I would not take an improvised vaccine made in someone’s garage. Not until we were in real fucked up post-apocalyptic scenarios.

      In concept perhaps, but idk if I would consider vaccines actually low tech, especially mRNA

        I mean, the original style of “Here, we kicked this virus’s ass for you, now you know it’s weaknesses” is pretty low-tech.
