00:20
And you're like, huh, what if the vaccine doesn't protect against it? you're wondering, does the vaccine protect against this particular variant so you might have a hypothesis no it doesn't and you want to test that out and to do that you would use the scientific method you already are you're making your observation you have your hypothesis and then you want to go through and make an experiment so you would get you know a certain sample size and you'd ask the people are you vaccinated the omicron variant.
01:22
Yes, no.
01:24
Yes, no.
