    Covid will not be stopped. Period
    It is here to stay and in a year the numbers will be higher
    but no one will report them . . . like we rarely report any other disease's death toll

    Deaths from other diseases do not have corpses lying on trucks, piling up to ceilings, burnt in public or dumped in a pit. ... virus will do the reporting for you.

    covid can definitely be stopped... just not in Trump kingdom.

    Why do we still listen to this Keebler Elf? He fukked up the AIDS crisis and now he’s fukking up this pandemic also.

    BTW- Stop killing American citizens who are hospitalized, give them Ivermectin or whatever drugs their doctors think that may help them.

    Kim Iversen is becoming some truth teller lately. As a bonus, she’s easy on the eyes and a Vietnamese like myself.

    I don’t like how the media is over simplifying things and trying to make stories but I get they need to get paid.
    It’s very complex , it’s race, age, sex, medical history, and which vaccine you get (very important).
    We’re not all the same, dna and medical wise.
    A friend told me there was a group of healthy dudes partying in Scottsdale who were of all races. They all got Covid. But the healthy young Black person got the worst symptoms and had to take some steroids. The others had mild symptoms.
    I know people who take monthly antibodies tests to see if they have high enough levels . Some people have actually taken extra shots because their counts were low.

    After moving from the US, I can assure that covid can be mitigated. It requires a higher vaccination rate and some basic procedure like wearing masks but its absolutely doable.

    Here in Ontario, we're now at 85% of people with one shot and 77% with two shots. Combined with mandatory masks and social distancing, cases and deaths are a tiny fraction of comparable states in the US. It sounds stupid but it really is as simple as getting vaccinated, wearing masks and socially distancing. Schools are open here (with mask mandates and distancing requirements) and a vaccine passport law is coming into effect soon (which not surprisingly resulted in a surge of vaccinations). Its not too much of a sacrifice to do these sorts of things.

    There really is no special magic here. People get vaccinated, wear masks and move on with life. That's all you have to do.

    general_03 needs to stop projecting his willful ignorance

    Iversen is merely a new reader, reading what was written for her. in this case, a one-sided interpretation of what Fauci did at one instance, when Fauci was being cautious just like he has done w mask-wearing, and conveniently ommitted to mention Fauci's acommplishments thru out the AIDS epidemic

    Fauci also played a key role in getting the federal research apparatus to incorporate recommendations from AIDS activists/research, in what amounted to perhaps the first time that federal health bureaucrats acceded almost fully to community and activist demands.

    Fauci has served at the pleasure of the POTUS; the fact that he has served 7 consecutive POTUS, 4 Rep and 3 Dem, underscores how well he done.

    The government of Japan has ordered doctors to give patients in hospitals Ivermectin. I wondered if some

    clowns in here that’s been ridiculing this life saving drug will go after Japan.

    Thank you for posting this tinman.

    The sheep in here that cannot think critically just need to stop embarrassing yourselves.

    Sure little pink, but Taiwan is still an independent country. Care to comment on that?

    Of course you love the Keeble Elf 50 cent warrior. He’s the one that helped your emperor Xi with gain of function studies of this virus.

    Lol. Rogan is just building his brand, pretty on point for him.

    Ivermectin is also topical for human lice. It has many uses….But the monoclonal antibody treatment (like Rogan) got is much more effective.

    Whatever happened to hydroxychlorquione?
