To this day vaccination is still not the stated exit strategy. That was never the objective. They all lied and they all continue to lie. Why do I know this? Because that's the ONLY thing we have EVIDENCE of. Dupes. All of the low info. Total dupes. They are not all lying unless you count the former President. Vaccinations are the best way to prevent viral diseases. And if you can’t get a vaccine, like with HIV, you work like hell to find treatments to hold down infectivity. And while doing so you counsel people of behaviors to help prevent spread. Honest to God, you don’t have the first damn clue about science. The people fighting this aren’t lying and the only dupe here is you. Because your agenda is clear: you want people to continue to die and for your kids and others to suffer so you can go off on a message board. How sad.

It's ironic once again that those who watch Fox news all day talk about this slippery slope into socialism say others are "scared". If it wasn't hypocritical it wouldn't be conservative.

There are millions upon million of Americans who do hang on every lie that Fox spreads. I hope Dominion whips the crap out of them in court so they will be less likely to spread nonsense. Any news that has people on to tell their 'expert opinion' isn't news. It's propaganda.

And their citizens do much better at voluntarily wearing masks and doing other preventive behaviors instead of making a stupid political game out of it. Florida? Do we have their real data or not? I want your kids to have normal childhoods again. It seems clear to me you don’t, that you’d rather scare them by saying that it will never go away and that they’ll kill themselves.

Don't assume you know how I've had to navigate this with my kids. It is the exact opposite of what you think. That's assuming you can, which I will. I've been doing the impossible for 13 months here. And counting. I suggest you never assume to know how a parent here deals with anything with their kids ever again. Edited March 28, 2021 by Big Blitz

I am sympathetic with anyone with kids during the epidemic and apologize to you for getting too strident on that. I still suggest, however, that if you are telling your children this will never end you reconsider doing so.

Remember, my comments today started when I read that POS Birx interview today in which she said we should have acted sooner---that Trump should have done something. Uh huh....... February 25th, 2020. Let me guess. "But the CDC was gutted!" Yea sure. If you're believing ANYTHING these bureaucrats are telling you, you're the problem. I'm not saying to not take caution you do you.

For what a taxpayer shells out to raise other people's children, you'd think they would deserve some say. I know this is way off topic, but people having kids as a way to get government hand outs is a sticky subject with me. It should be based on households, whether it be 1, 2, or 20 people. You only pay rent, gas, and electric once. I'm all for helping the poor, but giving an able-bodied 28 year old 10x what you'd give a 60 year old couple(or worse widowed) is ridiculous. I don't want any kids to be needy, but people need to have a better family building plan than rely on the government.

I still don't see how he escaped major blame for that one considering mask-wearing is considered the one thing that would have prevented all those people dying (never mind the 20/20 hindsighting with shutting down the country sooner ).

Ok, this is crap. At the beginning of the pandemic before the CDC and others had as much data on the mechanisms of spread, Dr. Fauci advised against masks to make sure that hospital personnel had enough PPE to take care of patients. As more data on cloth masks having an influence in droplet spread became available his opinion changed. This is precisely his science works. You know this, why do you insist on perpetuating a lie? 1

Unfortunately the way the citizens of this country are evolving history will treat us as courageous survivors of a deadly pandemic and murderous (better @SoCal Deek ?) work of the Nazi Trump.

This is true Jim, but our politicians feel like rock stars with the power they have. There's no other reason to explain why an 85 year old career politician who's rich doesn't just take their money, and enjoy their retirement.

What creates more panic? Drink the water, and you won't get sick, OR watching people drink the water you were told was safe, and watching people die after???? 1

Doc Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 Also the PPE was depleted under Obama. It was his responsibility to replenish it no matter how it occurred, not wait 6 years later and for a new administration.
