Coronavirus Information

"That’s one main takeaway from several media reports published over the past day about a new analysis of genetic data taken from the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market in Wuhan, China, where the first human cases of Covid-19 emerged more than three years ago. The analysis, first reported by the Atlantic, shows that raccoon dogs that were being illegally sold in the market may have been carrying the novel coronavirus at the end of 2019."

Are you really buying this? We Never hear even one person mention the Raccoon Dog in any of the interviews, and all of a sudden when it looks like we are narrowing it down to the attempt to produce suich a virus? He have a new plan of actions?

I think that the timing is just a little to convenient for my taste

Maybe the "raccoon dogs" were having "relations" with the bats?

Yes, public health officials did deliberately make your life worse

Joe Walsh, the former radio host and congressman who went from mindless MAGA drone to mindless Resistance grifter, wants to know if you really think that public health bureaucrats purposely made people's lives worse during the pandemic.


The answer is a resounding yes. And you do not have to look very hard to find the proof.


Walsh has chosen to peddle the same idea from the Atlantic’s article about “pandemic amnesty.” “We simply didn’t know better” is the mantra of the (mostly liberal) pundits who wish to absolve themselves of pandemic failures. Walsh is carrying the same mantra forward, using similar excuses: "It was a once in a lifetime pandemic. Of course mistakes were going to be made."

It was a once in a lifetime pandemic. Of course mistakes were going to be made. Of course. But to believe the scientists & health care officials all purposely tried to $#@! with our lives is crazy. They did their best to help us thru something none of us had ever lived thru b4.

Just so I’m clear: You believe that during Covid, scientists & health care officials PURPOSELY $#@!ed with our lives? You believe they PURPOSELY tried to make things worse for us? https://t.co/3AHLGlqBWD

Those precious scientists and public health officials “did their best,” he argues. They were only stunningly incompetent in the face of a generational pandemic, according to Walsh, which is hardly a good defense.


But Walsh’s insistence that no one could believe that public health officials purposely made things worse for people in their everyday lives doesn’t match what we actually saw from public health officials.


While those officials shut down schools and businesses and encouraged people to cancel family gatherings and holidays, dozens of public health experts signed a letter asserting that protesting against “white supremacy” was more important than slowing the spread. According to these experts (emphasis added), “White supremacy is a lethal public health issue that predates and contributes to COVID-19.”


So yes, they said that not protesting against police would make COVID-19 worse. That incoherent, anti-science position must be public health officials “doing their best.”


This meant that left-wing “defund the police” protests, hundreds of which became violent riots, were given the stamp of approval by our public health bureaucracy, all while everyday people were losing their jobs, their businesses, and years of their children’s education. This was a deliberate decision made by public health officials to place their own politics above the well-being of everyone else, meaning that the other "necessary" measures they promoted were, in fact, completely arbitrary. For how can school closures possibly be justified when protests are deemed necessary to fight against COVID-19?


Even without the protests, the targeting of schools is another clear example. It was already evident by summer 2020 that children were not at serious risk from COVID-19 and that they belonged in school in person. Failure rates climbed among children with virtual “learning,” as they were permanently set back academically, emotionally, and socially by school closures that public health officials demanded without justification.

That was, again, a purposeful decision that made people’s lives worse for no discernible public health benefit. The evidence was right in front of everyone, and yet school closures and restrictions continued through 2020 into 2021, 2022, and even this year. The evidence was too clear for this to be a result of incompetence.


This all rests on the public health bureaucracy, and every bit of the criticism is merited. Yes, they did purposefully make people's lives worse because they were ruled by politics, not public health. The public health bureaucracy does not deserve the benefit of the doubt. It deserves to be torn down and rebuilt, with everyone involved in school closures and protest endorsements to be cast out of their roles immediately.

There’s a huge new push right now urging people to get another COVID booster shot. We are being bombarded with TV and radio ads. I’ve never seen anything like this in the past. It’s bizarre.

[Just AnotherPerson]

We were all saying this from the beginning that hey you can strengthen your immune system even if you are high risk. Scientists are just now acting like they are learning about the immune system for the first time. 7 million deaths later........

That's because they more than likely have warehouses full of these doses about to go bad. The majority of people have smarted up and will not be taking this never working vaccine. It was enjoyable watching the frown on Facui's face when he was being told to take his fake cure and shove it where the sun doesn't shine!

It’s more than just an abundance of doses on hand. There’s an attempt here to influence then eventually control behaviors.

We have two extremes here. One extreme says that if you don’t get the shots regularly, you are evil. Then there’s another extreme that says if you get any COVID shot, you’re a stupid fool.
