“Current Covid transmission is higher than it has been throughout 90.5% of the pandemic. If the U.S. was still testing & reporting data, we would be reporting over 9 MILLION new cases each week. Since we’re not, the official number is like 1.2 million new cases each week.

MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS of COVID infections go unreported each week. As people get sick & die en masse, we pretend it’s not COVID. Keeping NO record of the ongoing carnage is the entire point.”

“So one can only conclude that the CDC purposefully redesigned their COVID graphic to downplay the severity and reduce attention paid to the —by far— number one cause of death by infectious disease.

Why? What purpose does this suppression serve?”

The CDC dropped the darkest colors and went from 10 levels of wastewater viral activity to 5.

Making the map look MUCH MORE APPEALING.

This change was made with zero announcement, AGAIN, between September 4th and today.

“We haven’t seen a widely distributed virus in recent human history that has had this property.”

Singapore: just 2,102 people have died from C-19 from 2020-2024 - the ENTIRE pandemic so far.

That many people have died in the U.S. in the past two WEEKS.

“This is the biggest summer wave because people are under-vaccinated and have stopped taking other precautions like distancing or wearing masks. And the reasons why we’re not taking these important risk-reduction behaviours is because many of us believe that COVID is over, or, if not over, that it’s not a big deal…

…But long COVID is still a risk and as of mid-August, the Public Health Agency of Canada reported over four million COVID cases in Canada. It’s not ‘just the flu’ either, as with this summer surge, the World Health Organization also reports increases in hospitalizations and deaths”

She’s on day 4 of covid & says:

“I had a lot of errands to run. I didn’t wear a mask—when I have covid, I can’t breathe worth a flip as it is… it’s not like I’m in anybody’s face, breathing all over them. Bash me if you want, but I’m not wearing a mask when I’m sick like this.”

“Asking @CDCgov, from my bedroom, where I'm moored because of #LongCovid, why the CDC isn't recommending masking -- alongside handwashing, vaxes and testing (which they are recommending). Alt text of response from Dr. Brendan Jackson below. 1/7”

Excellent thread:

“BREAKING: Up to 50% of Americans Expected to Be Infected in Current COVID-19 Wave.

The current COVID-19 wave in the U.S. has resulted in approximately 24.3% of Americans being infected since May 2, and around 19.3% since the surge began on June 23.”

“Think you’ve grasped the full extent of COVID’s ongoing impact? Think again. As Americans shrug off vaccines and forget indoor air quality, the virus stealthily continues its destructive path. This was pretty much inevitable without new guidance urging a change in strategy and nobody telling us the full truth.

The danger is clear and present: COVID isn’t merely a respiratory illness; it’s a multi-dimensional threat impacting brain function, attacking almost all of the body’s organs, producing elevated risks of all kinds, and weakening our ability to fight off other diseases. Reinfections are thought to produce cumulative risks, and Long COVID is on the rise. Unfortunately, Long COVID is now being considered a long-term chronic illness — something many people will never fully recover from.”
