COVID-19 & The 2024 Election
COVID-19 & The 2024 Election
“Instead of prioritizing public health, the Biden-Harris Admin elected to construct an artificial ‘post-pandemic’ finish line for them to cross and throw themselves a party. It failed to result in meaningful electoral success during the midterm elections. Another holiday season came around, with more children developing serious “post-pandemic” health issues…The Biden Administration, and the larger Democrat Party, had formed a new consensus with the anti-vaccine movement: That you stupid proles all need to shut the hell up and simply embrace unlimited COVID-19 infections, especially on the job, and especially the burden of bringing the disease home to your family, infecting your loved ones. If you wind up disabled by it, well, you no longer exist to us anymore - so drop dead. You are no longer entitled to your own health or entitled to protect your children's health. Your employer is now entitled to your health, and may throw it away at the drop of a hat, fully protected by the legal system..”

Factcheck: Herd immunity is not the solution to COVID-19 pandemic
Factcheck: Herd immunity is not the solution to COVID-19 pandemic
“While herd immunity has successfully protected populations from other infectious diseases, such as measles and smallpox, all efforts to stop the SARS-CoV-2 virus — the virus behind COVID-19 — from spreading have fallen short. According to Giurgea, immune responses against this virus, whether achieved through vaccination or a previous infection, subside with time. Additionally, the ability of the virus to mutate allows it to evade these immune responses and continue to spread in the population.”

Factcheck: Herd immunity is not the solution to COVID-19 pandemic
In U.S., "The number of annual traffic fatalities in Washington state has jumped from 528 in 2019 to 810 in 2023, a 51% increase since 2019..
In U.S., "The number of annual traffic fatalities in Washington state has jumped from 528 in 2019 to 810 in 2023, a 51% increase since 2019..

“In U.S., ‘The number of annual traffic fatalities in Washington state has jumped from 528 in 2019 to 810 in 2023, a 51% increase since 2019.. 2023 [was] the deadliest since 1990.. Speculation as to why traffic fatalities increased varied.’

IMO, the main reason is the cognitive dysfunction caused by SARS-CoV-2.

Fear Itself
“Those who are the most well-informed about COVID, who know which variants are circulating, how to check wastewater levels, who encourage testing in their social circles and calmly continue to mask in public, have a more adult, emotionally mature relationship with the pandemic. They understand that denial is no remedy for fear, and delusion no refuge.”
