The Atlantic Predicted an Iowa COVID ‘Tsunami’ to Discredit Governor — But It Never Materialized
National Review ^ | 1/15/2021 | Tobias Hoonhout

Iowa governor Kim Reynolds’s reluctance to embrace stringent coronavirus lockdown measures resulted in a case spike in November and guaranteed certain disaster over the holidays, according to an ominous story featured prominently on The Atlantic’s website in December.

Titled “Iowa Is What Happens When Government Does Nothing,” the article, written by Iowa native Elaine Godfrey and published on December 3, attributed the brief statewide spike in cases and hospitalizations to Reynolds’s insistence on weighing economic factors when making decisions about COVID, and predicted that the state “can expect to see nothing less than a tsunami” over the upcoming holiday season.

The state needs people in the health departments to exaggerate case numbers.

Please watch and read the following.
The CDC, NIH, WHO have suppressed an effective early treatment of covid. You need to petition you governors to fix this. Ivermectin has been on the table since the first tests early this year from Australia. Dr Cory has testified before the Senate twice now. Also attached is latest from India and EVMS Dr Marik.

To the Goveners of this country, get your heads out of your ass and fix this... The people in DC will not.

I'll answer for Atlantic.

See what India did. They did a better job:

But, they used early hydroxychloroquine and/or Ivermectin and they it worked.

Leftists are sure that it won’t work, and anyone who says it does is lying.

Wow! It’s fun to be leftist or commies.

With all due respect, I’m not sure Covid could survive some parts of India . . .

Because of the prevalence of malaria HCQ is available OTC like Chiclets. Also the sun helps with natural vitamin D production.

South Dakota Gov Norm also refused to go along with mask mandates and lockdowns and the media jackals declared the state a pest colony and predicted people dying in the streets. None of the dire predictions came true. When some 200,000 motorcycle enthusiasts defended on Sturgis,SD for an annual motorcycle rally, the “experts” predicted a mega spreader event. Contact tracing could only link less than 100 cases of COVID and possibly one death. The experts were so despirate to make the rally a super spreader event they found researchers to gin up a phony “study” based on cell phone data to “prove” the event had spread COVID far and wide.
