Ya totally, colds kill 800k americans all the time

You want to talk about being a dumb poster?

Anybody that believes the BS spewed the the MSM is the epitome of dumb, ignorant, and lazy, just a little research would prove that we're being lied to concerning everything your hearing from the MSM on COVID.

People that in the know have been predicting everything that's happened, barr none, I predicted a new variant and the current NFL outbreak before the season even started, you're being played if you're falling for the scare tactics......800K deaths my arse. 

I'm expecting Omicron to morph into a deadly killer or maybe they'll blame it on another variant that's going to cancel the SB, but it's not going to be Omicron or another variant, it's going to be is vaccines that going to have folks dropping like flies.

Let's see if your dumb, ignorant, lazy arse can do this much, look into the topic known as "Germ Theory", afterwards, take a deep dive into the causes of "The Spanish Flu", and then research the tests that were performed to infect others with the Spanish Flu........aka, educate your dumb, ignorant, lazy arse

Just like you admitted you were wrong about vaccine mandates reducing the workforce by 25%?

Considering the mandates are just now  back on, let’s wait and see. Of course there’s a high chance it won’t hit 25% and I’ll own it. Frankly, even 10% is a blow to the economy. But again, good for you cherry picking from my reply and not owning your own F up. 800K DIED FROM THAT COLD, DON’T YA KNOW?!? 

EagleVA’s just F’ing around, right?  

Right?

Ya there haven't been any company instituted mandates yet, we're really flying blind on that one. So much stupid crammed into one person. 

 

The origin of omicron discussion is really interesting. It's a variation on an older strain with a surprising number of mutations. So you've got the typical zoonosis pathway where it spreads to an animal, mutates, then spreads back to humans. But then the other theory is that it could have lingered a long time in an immunocompromised host accumulating mutations as it tries to avoid a weakened immune system before spreading elsewhere. So theoretically a handful of HIV patients in south Africa could have led to a global outbreak.  Morbidly really interesting to see how interconnected global public health can be.

It's why we needed to start donating vaccines as soon as he hit the wall domestically for hesitancy. Instead we let tens of thousands of doses expire (likely more) when we could've been sending them abroad if for nothing else than to gather real world data on VE. Missed opportunity by Biden, among many others. We seem to be making a habit of being a day late and a dollar short on this.

As we pass the tipping point where supply outstrips demand domestically in the next month or two, I'm hoping that we donate some doses to South Africa if for nothing else than as a real world clinical study to better understand how well induced immunity would fare against b1.351. Is it less protective across the board? If so, to what extent? Is it still protective but with lesser durability? Is it just as protective against severe disease but not nearly as much for asymptomatic transmission? It's shimmering we'll absolutely need to understand at some point, so even for selfish reasons, we should be looking at doing this at a small scale in SA, as opposed to much larger countries like Brazil and India where it's far more impractical.

Yes, the companies that had zero interest in doing mandates themselves that will now be forced to won’t affect the labor force at all. Again, own your own F up dope. 

We are learning always.  Why some choose to not learn I can’t answer for them.  I pray for them.  I had a covid death and it sucks. Why people think their age and health will save them?   Look, I’m 60.  I’m getting tired. Already had a cancer. I’m living the best I can. I’m a poorer but debt free.  Why can’t people be more compassionate towards one another?   Games on.  I got nothing else to say.  Some of you really suck at life.

Yeah.

The guy who is at the top of the ladder in regards to fighting the pandemic and advising/protecting the American people doesn’t  want to take tough questions regarding his job.

 And is willing to completely take a persons comments 150% out of context on camera to the audience and call for his firing? 
 

that’s not something to be concerned about? or scary even?
 

of course it is   Think about it in the sense that in this climate, if someone calls out to the masses to ask questions they will be labeled a terrorist.   Because that’s kinda the road we are on  

I would have rather him say,

"bring it, I will answer any legitimate question respectfully asked in the appropriate setting”

that’s what a professional doctor/scientist (what have you)would have done 

If this was the sum total of the aggression towards Fauci I'd be inclined to agree. But that guy has been targeted relentlessly by insane radicalized nutjobs and lives his life every day getting death threats.

Jesse Watters knew exactly what he was doing. He's fomenting the kind of behavior we saw on Jan 6.

Are they playing? I mean, I know they showed up but wouldn’t really call this televised abortion "playing” just yet. 

Looking forward to the next ridiculous turnover.

On the plus side we finally forced Gilbert Gottfried or whatever his name is to punt. Progress?

I'm watching some commercial emploring us to donate money to feed the starving people of some third world country in conflict. By the end of the commercial I'm wondering what deviant arsehole is going to send them the money to watch them suffer like that?

Consider:

"high-income countries are hoarding an estimated 870 million excess doses—nearly 500 million in the US alone."

"Winter is bringing the threat of severe illness and death," President Joe Biden warns.

At face value we're supposed to keep them alive to watch them suffer "severe illness and death"?

Is it a scam?

Is their suffering and death how this administration hopes to convince 40 people in the US to succumb to the vaccine?

That's some sadistic sheet right there.

 

Just tell me where to show up for next booster shot.  Need better reception.

Israel will offer FOURTH dose of coronavirus vaccine to people over the age of 60 to shore up protection against Omicron

• Israel will become the first nation to administer fourth doses of Covid vaccines, approving the shots for those over the age of 60 on Tuesday
• Health care workers will be eligible for the additional shots as well, starting immediately
• Israel has recorded 341 cases of the variant as of Tuesday afternoon, and total Covid cases have increased 57% over the past two weeks
• U.S. officials like Dr Anthony Fauci and Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla have said that a fourth dose may be eventually needed for Americans as well 

Go Army !

Army to announce it has developed a single vaccine that protects from ALL variants of COVID and SARS

• Walter Reed Army Institute of Research is set to announce the development of a vaccine that is effective against all COVID and SARS variants 
• Army researchers at Walter Reed have been working on a vaccine for two years
• The Spike Ferritin Nanoparticle COVID-19 vaccine (SpFN) has so far been proven to protect against all existing and potential variants of the viruses 
• The Omicron COVID variant has been quickly spreading across the world and is set to become the dominant variant in coming weeks

Nanoparticles! If they are not highly magnetic I am going to be extremely dissapointed.

Thank you for not countering one of my points. It says all you need to. You attempted to catch me in some "gotcha” moment that I called Covid-19 a cold. I didn’t. I called Omicron one. I own it. So far, I’m right. If I’m wrong down the road, I’ll admit it. I don’t portray myself as infallible or superior to others like you do.  Please tell us more about how scared we should be of Omicron. . 

I'll prepare the bonfire.  This is the 4th or 5th wave, man.  How have you not learned your lesson about the 2 month delay from spread to deaths yet?  I can't even fathom the stubbornness that would take.
