    Covid is no hoad. But if you get a common cold, then your courtesy should be to cover your mouth when you sneeze, wash your hands constantly with soap and water, and take whatever OTC medicine to deal with it. If it lingers past one or two days after you have taken the medicine, then go see your physician, personally or telehealth, not some TV doctor on your favorite political talk show. The reason, the cold, flu, and COVID all have very similar symptoms and the only sure way to know which one is to get tested, is to go see your physician.

    "If you are vaccinated and boosted, you may get COVID but you are highly protected against severe illness. "

    So, he didn't say that you can't get it if you are vaccinated. He said that you are much less likely to get severely ill (true). Of course, the RW attributes a lot to Biden that he didn't say or do. Here is the death rate / 100,000 for vaccinated vs. unvaccinated:

    The data seems pretty clear to me. Why anyone would take such a severe personal risk to be unvaccinated, just because of politics, is beyond me.

    Maybe, 5 years form now, the emotional politics behind covid will have dissipated enough that everyone can look at this based on reality, rather than partisan blinders. One can only hope.

    Natural selection at work. Those too stupid to accept the science were culled at a much greater rate.

    It is encouraging to know that CDC has mastered predicting the future.

    People should do what they think is best for them....whether you get all the Boosters or don't want any shots at all. I'm happy I got the two initial...even though the last made me sick as hell. I'm done with it now and don't plan on boosters.

    Yep, natural selection for sure. Most deaths were in big cities…which are overwhelmingly blue, even in red states.

    Those who were to stupid to see passed the lies about masking being effective and feeling way to safe. Shocking.

    The vaccine was billed as a preventative and you damn well know it.

    Those places masked up and vaxxed the most, too. They were locked down. Why did they have so many infections?

    Yep, most deaths in those blue areas. People who immediately believed the “science” against all rational thinking. Natural selection.

    I don't think it is predicting the future, but they are estimating the rise because of the new strain.

    Mild symptoms, meaning her immunity (natural or from vaccine, or both) is working.

    Maybe natural selection, but those who passed away with Covid Complications probably had other serious medical issues too. They were elderly, had suppressed immune systems, etc, in which their natural immune system could not fight off the disease as effectively as a 30 year old, well at least in the early days. But those who did not vaccinate or took precautions also died from Covid as well. Covid was definitely nondiscrminatory when it came to who got sick and who didn't.

    Link??? I remember seeing threats by celebs and seeing signs that said Rape Melania. I also recall seeing someone asking a fellow lib to take one for the team and eliminate Kavanaugh.

    If the vaccine is not all that great, why did Biden kick people out of the military for not getting.

    There are more than a few radical Democrats who like to impose mask mandates and go back to March 2020. They live to control other human beings and install their dictatorial candidates, like Gretchen Whitman and Gavin Newsum in office.

    Turns out there's some data out there that says that potentially having been boosted over time makes you more susceptible over time. Who could have ever predicted that pharma would build in future sales.....

    Are you so ignorant to not know that those vaccinated and boosted, and boosted were culled too? Your ridiculous partisan ignorance laughable and quite frankly beyond idiotic.

    The choice is, advice from a doctor, or advice from an internet poster. !!!

    Actually, he did say it. Below is a clip from the CNN Town Hall with Dom Lemon. Link also provided.


    “MR. LEMON: You said that you’re talking to scientists, though, but what — what are they telling you, Mr. President?”

    “THE PRESIDENT: What they’re telling me is, “Let us decide, based on scientific data, in how we proceed. Do it the way we would ordinarily do it.”

    Look, for example, everybody talks about how, you know, this virus came — this — this — the drugs that are designed to kill the virus came along so quickly. They’ve been working on it for two decades. There’s nothing quick about this. It’s been over two decades.

    So people said, “I’m not taking a drug that was approved so quickly.” It’s been two decades. The truth is we haven’t said it enough to people to allay their feals [sic]. There’s nothing — their fears. This is nothing that just happened yesterday and they said, “Well, let’s take a shot on this.” And there’s a process. Usually the process takes the better part of a year or more to get some of these things decided.

    But the expectation — they’re not promising me any specific date — but my expectation, talking to the group of scientists we put together — over 20 of them, plus others in the field — is that sometime maybe in the beginning of the school year — at the end of August, beginning of September, October — they’ll get a final approval saying the FDA said, “No, this is it. It’s good.”

    But again, one last thing. I — we don’t talk enough to you about this, I don’t think. One last thing that’s really important is: We’re not in a position where we think that any virus — including the Delta virus, which is much more transmissible and more deadly in terms of non — unvaccinated people — the vi- — the various shots that people are getting now cover that. They’re — you’re okay. You’re not going to — you’re not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations.”

    Good excuse for Biden to stay at his beach house longer than one day.

    Fauci told us we wouldn’t get the virus and therefore we wouldn’t get grandma sick.

    All we heard from this administration is if you don’t get vaccinated and get Covid you might bring it to grandma’s house and kill her. Please don’t deny you heard that one. This administration created divisiveness among families.
