    I mean, it’s probably not a particularly fun experience to only find out that you have this allergy after you almost fucking die eight hours after getting a vaccine with trace amounts of alpha-gal in it, in severe cases.

    As the disease rises in prominence, I reckon we’ll start to see at-home tests. I certainly hope that happens.
