Admins, I plead, how do you ignore someone?   I keep seeing people suggesting they have, but I've tried to no success.

 

How?

 

Please try harder

So, when are we "there?"  Lol lol science!

 

 

As states drop masking, CDC stands by guidance: “We are not there yet”

 

"Our hospitalizations are still high, our death rates are still high," CDC director cautioned..

Oh.  Ok.

 

Hospitalizations are still "too high."

 

Death rates are still "too high."  

 

Oh well maybe some day we'll get "there."

Hopefully not...I really enjoy being the lone rebel, in the grocery store, not wearing a mask...just seeing all the disturbed looks on everyone’s face was oddly gratifying...😉

Enjoy the COVID Grace Period

 

It’s worth acknowledging here that all of us can hear “Patience, grasshopper” only so many times before we decide to burn everything to the ground. This is a trash place to be, after spending such a long time in crisis. And as my colleague Derek Thompson has written, the “Stay vigilant” ask may feel especially unfair for the people who have been holding the line on caution for years, only to watch their neighbors and colleagues—some of the very people they’ve been trying to protect—snub or exploit that graciousness. COVID has not gone away, despite their best efforts, and maybe worse, the still-COVID-conscious are having to bear more of the burden, even as their ranks dwindle. Vigilance is that much tougher when you feel like you’re the only one on watch.

 

But that is many people’s reality, and not everyone has the wiggle room to act more freely. Hidalgo, of the University of Alabama at Birmingham, told me that living in a state where vaccination rates are low and enthusiasm for other infection-prevention measures is scarce has prompted her to draw sharper borders around her behavior. She feels confident saying that her family of four is living far more strictly than most in her community.

 

Her two sons, ages 8 and 12, are the only kids on their respective basketball teams who play fully masked; even the crowds at their games have turned into a sea of uncovered faces. She, her husband, and the kids are all vaccinated. But they’re still avoiding restaurants, movie theaters, and large gatherings of any kind. They’ve traveled only twice in the past two years, and visit vulnerable relatives, including Hidalgo’s parents, only sparingly. Things might feel rosier if they lived in California or New York, but they don’t. “Our situation is completely different,” she said. Hidalgo knows that her risk tolerance is “on the low end,” but she prefers not to frame it that way—her decision calculus isn’t about what she wants, or about what will make her comfortable. “Have we eliminated a lot from our life? Yes,” she said. “But there is sufficient need to prevent infection.”

And they don't ask that psychopath why.  She flat out says her risk level is "on the low end."  She should at least lie for the article that is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable bc there are millions like this.  Irrationally so.  

 

They also don't ask her how long she intends to do that to her kids.

 

What a pathetic existence.  Alive but not living.

 

Secession.  She wants out of Alabama anyway.  Good.  Move to Oregon.

Europe is on the verge of declaring the COVID pandemic over. Not so fast, the WHO fires back

 

With the prospect of more variants in the future, European governments are now pushing to a model of living with COVID as an endemic disease like the flu, rather than trying to eradicate it.

 

In short: Europe appears to be done with COVID—despite a stern warning from World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus: “It’s premature for any country either to surrender or to declare victory.”

 

Not scared in Scandinavia

 

Europeans are the least likely to say they are “very” or “somewhat” afraid of catching COVID compared to other regions, according to data compiled by YouGov.

I am actually curious if anyone feels the lockdowns and mandates were successful? The numbers across the board show that Florida did well relative to the number of people 70+ in our state while NY and NJ did terrible. There is little evidence that the damage done to our economy saved more lives than it cost in suicides, murders and drug overdoses, in fact the John's Hopkins estimate makes the case that it cost lives more than it saved. Finally the US number of deaths is more than India who has 6 times the number of people and did not lockdown. How has it been successful?

I'll go with arbitrary, unscientific and counterproductive. 

 

But when you successfully politicize a pandemic you will always get numbskulls to believe anything at all as long as it's coming from their side.

As a resident of Nevada, Gov Sisolak removed the mandate at about 10:15am yesterday and it was almost as if the world started turning again.  going out to lunch no one was wearing masks.  If you think for 1 second the anti-maskers are in the minority, you are wrong.

 

Sisolak, you did the right thing 1 year late.  Enjoy your last year in office.

If I'm the parent of the 5 year old that got the shot, and I'm seeing the news today that Pfizer is halting plans to ok it for kids under 5, I'm probably going to want a ***t load of answers.  

 

Pfizer withdrew their application for FDA approval for kids under 5.  Not enough data - I guess the 0.0000000001 death rate for under 5 due to covid wasn't enough data.  

 

 

 

To the parents of these kids ages 5-7, 8, 9? that got the shot.....I'm sure it's fine..

 

What a f...ing disaster.  

 

Need WWIII to off ramp this.

Since when did not wanting QR codes become extreme? 🤣🤣👍

 

An earlier video I posted showed a trucker saying just as much...The vaccines are not about health, but getting everyone on a digital ID registry...

 

Just look what they have been doing in Australia...

 


This is the REAL agenda of getting everyone vaccinated and it should scare the shi# out of us all!


In a 2018 article, Bill Gates said the pathway to digital ID is through immunization...That is exactly what’s happening now...Everyone will lose all privacy/freedom and be controlled by the state through Big Tech...

 

EVERYTHING they call a conspiracy theory comes true! 👍

On Feb. 10, Minnesota's Twin Cities Mayors Melvin Carter and Jacob Frey made a joint statement, announcing the repeal of their vaccine mandates for restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues, as reported by the Star Tribune. Since January, people in Minneapolis and St. Paul have been required to show proof of vaccination to enter these spaces. If not, they had to provide a negative COVID test result.
