    And everyone by now should realize that people are being tested positive after being cured of COVID 19. There have been confirmed cases in the US and Canada so far. You cannot become immune to a coronavirus.

    America is a ****ing disaster and it didn't start with Donald Trump.
    ...

    Coronavirus is a political label assigned to a whole host of families of strains of "bugs"

    (SOME PEOPLE IN HIGH POSITIONS WILL VITRIOLICALLY PROTEST THIS STATEMENT^^^^

    Learn more about the COVID-19 variants, including the Omicron variant, and what that means for people’s health.


    beyond that, it's human beings with community PR messaging playing authoritative semantics with political labels hoping that adds some magic to the complex system

    oh and **** DONALD TRUMP
    [How Many Coronaviruses Are There?


    Coronaviruses didn’t just pop up recently. They’re a large family of viruses that have been around for a long time. Many of them can make people ill with sniffles or coughing. Before the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak, coronaviruses were thought to cause only mild respiratory infections in people.
    get people cornered, media, and starting asking tough questions about the FAMILY of CORONAVIRUSES and how they DIDN"T EVOLVE AS A RESULT OF HUMAN IMPACT/CLIMATE CHANGE

    inject "human impact""and thus denial of such" into the narrative

    it helps root out asswipes who shouldn't be in a job

    community focused PR messaging is a HALLMARK of incompetent dumb ass fake ass people

    flat out terrorists who will use authority for their own egotistical ass purposes


    American medicine is a giant industrial corporate fraud
    True.
    Donald Trump is a dumb ass piece of ****
    Also true.

    For whatever reason, opponents of Trump are trying to create a dichotomy to add legitimacy to their busted ass selves

    sorry *******s, but "I'm good by contrast" isn't a ****ing thing.

    You're just ALSO another ZERO ****ING NITWIT just like donald trump

    whoever the **** you are, out there in TV land, anyone in an institution

    and **** the media
    those people are frauds and liars

    You realize that the formula for herd immunity is 1-1/R0 -> so for Covid-19 this means at least 75% of the population have to have caught and recovered from the disease. We are nowhere close to that.

    It's going to be a long winter.

    Fauci didn't actually predict a spike. He warned of one if we don't "hunker down."

    Human beings need to progress past the point of "group urination and defecation... bathrooms organized with more than ONE TOILET PER ROOM... are OKAY"

    We live in disgusting perverted disease ridden times due to DESIGN

    Norway had a spike recently. It's still less than Sweden but I think Sweden’s population is greater. I'm not saying Norway will get many more cases but I don't think Sweden will get another spike. I also don't think the US will get another spike.

    Sweden's policy of allowing the controlled spread of COVID-19 viral infection among the population has so far failed to deliver the country's previously stated goal of herd immunity. Commenting on recent antibody testing clinical and research findings, authors of a paper published by the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, write that Sweden's higher rates of viral infection, hospitalization and mortality compared with neighboring countries may have serious implications for Scandinavia and beyond.
    Lead author Professor David Goldsmith said: "It is clear that not only are the rates of viral infection, hospitalization and mortality (per million population) much higher than those seen in neighboring Scandinavian countries, but also that the time-course of the epidemic in Sweden is different, with continued persistence of higher infection and mortality well beyond the few critical weeks period seen in Denmark, Finland and Norway." He added that in these countries, rapid lock-down measures brought in from early March seem to have been initially more successful in curtailing the infection surge and thus the malign consequences of COVID-19 on the country as a whole.

    Sweden has herd immunity imo. They have had around 200 new cases per day for around 3 months now. The experts are wrong a lot on this because it's a novel virus. A large portion of the population is immune at default.

    And if enough don't, that Herd Immunity that you claim will be reached shortly, is simply a pipe dream
    Again, most ACTUAL EXPERTS don't see us reaching herd immunity for a very long time, especially if Trump pressures the FDA to rush a vaccine that hasn't been properly tested

    High risk people will take the vaccine. If they don't that's their choice.

    We won't even be close to herd immunity by then based on what MOST EXPERTS are predicting.
    And even IF a vaccine (which is highly doubtful by election day) is available... with current polls showing many Americans won't even bother to get the vaccine because they are anit vaccers or simply afraid of any Vaccine that Trump forces the FDA to rush through for approval, not enough people will take it to help us reach herd immunity.
    That's what the actual facts are saying. But then again, you are welcome to your opinion.
    192.000+ Americans Dead so far, and still climbing.
