The CDC director just gave us a dark coronavirus warning (illegal aliens exempt)

Nevertheless, two states created an uproar this week when both states (Texas and Mississippi) announced their decision to pull back restrictions and mandates imposed during the pandemic, like max capacity requirements for businesses and statewide face mask rules. President Biden criticized these moves as the product of “Neanderthal thinking,” while CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky actually went farther than that - warning during a White House press briefing this week that the US could lose all of the progress made thus far as a result of the spread of more transmissible coronavirus variants. Spread that would be helped even more by states like these and others that join them pulling back on their coronavirus-related public safety measures too soon.

“Please hear me clearly,” Dr. Walensky said. “At this level of cases with variants spreading, we stand to completely lose the hard-earned ground we have gained. These variants are a very real threat to our people and to our progress. Now is not the time to relax the critical safeguards that we know could stop the spread of COVID-19 in our communities, not when we are so close.”

While there has been a degree of promising news coverage in recent days and weeks, make no mistake: We’re still very much in the middle of a dangerous pandemic. COVID-19 cases, as well as related deaths, are up about 2% compared to last week - and we’re now averaging around 67,000 coronavirus cases per day, along with some 2,000 deaths each day.

Along these lines, and related to the Texas and Mississippi news, former FDA commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb had an important insight to share in a CNBC interview this week - namely, that governments and public health experts need to start talking to people about the end of the pandemic...

Illegal aliens cannot spread COVID just like Chinese-emitted carbon dioxide can’t impact climate change. It’s simple science. You can ask any Democrat.

The same people who were behind forcing sick Covid-19 patients into nursing homes, resulting in 10’s of thousands of needless deaths, are now going to shove sick covid patients to facilities in Mississippi and Texas to try to stop states from opening up. Get your ivermectin and/or HCQ now and stand by, because we either get exposed to this by force as punishment for opening our states, or we stay locked up like livestock.

The scum are losing control. Expect ever increasing hysteria as they try and regain their fear induced chokehold on the people.

look at the world coronavirus stats.
sort by deaths per 1m pop

india is #117.
zimbabwe is #121.

the US is #11

HOW is that possible? a first world country with all the med tech...
yet we’ve lost far more people than 3rd world countries with barely any tech.

“Two weeks to Flatten the curve”.

That was a year ago.

It never was about health. It is about control, and destruction of the economy for the Middle Class.

Problem is, covid is really hard on people
Who are overweight, diabetic, have heart disease
And are old.

Lot of Americans check those boxes.

We have a lot of technology to keep us alive
But in this case, relying on pills to maintain
Health is part of the problem.

Most other countries do not offer financial incentives and rewards for over-inflating Covid fatality numbers. Our actual count of people that died from Covid is probably about 30% of the reported number.

Because anyone who died was reported as a covid death? It was an election year!
