COVID-19 vaccines are worthless?
Yes as long as people keep having large parties and keep sucking face.
Here in LA they have some parties as many as a 100+.

No, the new variant is more readily transmitted, but there is nothing different about how the immune system identifies it and responds to it.

The vaccines still work. The people who already had COVID-19 are still immune. This isn’t that big a deal.

Common sense would tell us that.

Since when has this virus and the way it's been handled had anything to do with that?

It won't work because the political establishment will decide that it doesn't work and we'll need a new vaccine and have to be locked down again until that rolls out and they try to make everyone take the new one.

And it's turtles all the way down.

The symptoms have some significant differences and the testing would yield completely different results. The biggest difference is the loss of taste and smell. While cold and flu can cause some degradation in those senses (primarily due to the associated nasal congestion), COVID-19 effectively eliminates those senses. They just stop working. That doesn’t happen with cold or flu. There’s overlap with other generalized symptoms, but the drop in SpO2 is also a significant difference. In other words, for mild cases, your average Joe may not notice the difference between COVID-19 and cold/flu. However, a clinician will very quickly spot the significant differences and understand this is something new and different from what they’ve seen before.

SARS-CoV-2 is just different enough from SARS-CoV-1 (SARS2003) to be classified as a new virus. In fact, at the start of all this, there was some debate over whether to classify it as a new variant of SARS-CoV or if it’s different enough to be new. Classification with viruses is tricky because you can’t really define a species in the traditional sense due to their lack of reproductive capability.

Ohhhhh....Nooooooo!!!! Not SUPER-COVID. Say it ain’t so. /s
Maybe this new species will take out a few high-echelon RATs that colluded with the CCP in the first place to give us this crap and have been hiding behind HCQ for months. From my keyboard to the Lord’s ears.

Time to shut down the economy again. This time it will be forever.

That is exactly what they plan. The ass holes.

You mean, LIVING their lives, like FREE people?! Oh, the horror!

Let's just lockdown again, but this time, we'll let the government tell us what time to go to bed, what time to get up, when (or if) we can kiss our spouses and children... I am SURE that will fix everything.

I have seen the future, and it looks totalitarian, and retarded.

I just find it really convenient that right about the time people across the world are getting fed up with all the government over reach on the issue this pops up. As people are getting vocal and actually standing up to the cult of Covid tyranny, along comes a scarier, more whatever strain to put the fear back in to them.

Is Covid the new Goldstien, worthy of our 2 minutes of fear?

Super-COVID is so deadly that we will have to cull the population to limit its spread. Life that is unworthy of life will be the first to be liquidated. The smaller population density will save humanity and the Earth.

China has always been in it for the long haul. Why would anyone think they would stop after their first salvo?

What is the city south of San Diego? Isn’t it Tijuana? Doesn’t the Tijuna River flow north carrying raw sewage north into San Diego?

So how long have you been hiding in your basement COVID-warrior? I'll bet you wear your mask while driving alone. Tell me I am wrong.

Hey, Karen, it is called the flu season... it happens about this time every year. People get sick and old and/or vulnerable people sometimes die. Just ask Jim Henson, Billy Wilder, Brittany Murphy, Fred Astaire, George Peppard, and a huge list of other celebrities... oh that is right... you can't because they all died of pneumonia. It was around before Covid became the rage and it killed a lot of people. It will continue killing people, those who have large parties, those who kiss, those who get together with their friends and relatives over the holidays, and even thousands who have made themselves shut-ins who wear a mask 24 hours a day.

I personally know two people who were finatical mask wearers and shut ins who ended up with pneumonia this last year and one of them died. Neither of them tested positive for Covid and the doctors have taken the masks away from the one who survived and told her not to wear them any more. Her doctors blamed the obsessive mask wearing for making her more vulnerable to coming down with pneumonia.

Those of us who spent our lives responding to, treating and caring for sick people recognize this as nothing out of the ordinary except for the politically motivated coverage and extreme government over reaction. The fact that even people who post on conservative forums are repeating what their Democrat overlords have told them shows that weak willed sheeple come in all political stripes.

No worries. We’ve got Ivermectin. No need for babies to die. No need for a vaccine!
