COVID will continue as long as it is useful to the Left.

We still have the jury box, but unfortunately, I doubt that most people even know about the concept of jury nullification. And those who do are probably aware that nullification, if proven, can lead to criminal sanction in some cases.

I thought, if the Dims won, COVID would disappear almost immediately. They’d used it as a political weapon to get rid of Trump, and, once that was accomplished, they’d move on to something else. Now, however, I’m not so sure they want COVID to disappear. I think they like the power it gives them to control the populace. And we all know, once a Dim gets a taste of power, they don’t want to give it up.

Yep.

Every time I’ve been called to serve (never selected, lawyers don’t like engineers or anyone else with a hint of analytical thinking ability) his or her ‘Honor’ has made it abundantly and vividly clear that ‘none of this jury nullification nonsense will be tolerated in his/her fair court’.

The people who seek power are precisely the very same people who should never have power!

Exactly. We should never forget that hospitals put off thousands of elective procedures in order to “free up beds” for the coming Wuhan apocalypse and lost many millions of dollars doing it. They are also being paid an extra 13,500 per “Wuhan” patient, so it behooves them to pad the numbers.

How would you actually find everyone in a train car who traveled with a complete stranger? That’s not possible. Any more than tracking everyone who was in a grocery store when one shopper caught the virus.

If covid destroys California and New York, it is good for America.

I believe the criteria for quarantining is coming in close contact of a positive person within 6 feet for 15 minutes. In my town, you are better off taking the bus than ride sharing. I never see more than a couple of individuals on the entire bus during rush hour..

he was OK as governor but he lost his mind when he lost to Trump. Fool needed to check himself before he wrecked himself but he never did. You know he’ll be trying again in 2024. If 2024 was a Star Wars movie, it would be called: “Revenge of the Rinos”.

he has lost himself in his rage I think and he’s probably going to be something of a problem for us. To what extent remains to be seen but I guarantee we haven’t heard the last of him. he’s another Mitt Romney kind of a bad penny.

I agree. I think eventually it’ll hit everyone.

I pray that you’ll overcome it as well as we have, if not better!

Please keep us posted if you do get it...

No, it’s real. Amongst ten of us in three households it hit 50% of us, from one asymptomatic person from up north whose apartment building had it.

It’s real, all right...

COVID is real, and it is easily prevented and treated with Ivermectin-based treatments. The swamp is suppressing this info, in part, because COVID is useful. Many people have died to benefit the Left.

In vitro, not in humans. I'm sure that if it worked, the doctors would be using it widely. Their practice generally has to follow the best available evidence.

pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies suggest that achieving the plasma concentrations necessary for the antiviral efficacy detected in vitro would require administration of doses up to 100-fold higher than those approved for use in humans.

"In vitro, not in humans. I'm sure that if it worked, the doctors would be using it widely."

Ivermectin is super effective in vivo. This drug is suppressed by the likes of Fauci for political reasons. It is used effectively in third-world countries.

A group of top COVID experts advocate for it. Their home page: covid19criticalcare.com

33-page review of usage of Ivermectin for COVID
