Right on Schedule, COVID Pivots for Biden
American Thinker ^ | 25 Jan, 2021 | Brian C. Joondeph, M.D.

Imagine changing the rules in the middle of the game, so that hits rather than runs, or first downs rather than touchdowns, determine the game winner. That is exactly what is happening with COVID reporting, just as many of us predicted. This confirms the lingering question of how much of COVID was about the actual virus versus a political club to hurt President Trump and drive him from office, quite successfully.

As an interesting coincidence, the first case of the novel coronavirus arrived in the U.S. on the same day the House walked articles of impeachment to the Senate. The next impeachment was based on Trump’s supposed calls for violence at a pre-planned Capitol riot just before Congress was to certify (or not) the Electoral College vote, the riot blamed on a speech he gave after the rioting already started.

In politics, there are no coincidences, and the recent rule changes for tallying COVID case are no exception. What happened after Orange Man went from bad to gone?

The World Health Organization, on Biden's inauguration day, released a notice that the COVID PCR test was overly sensitive based on its cycle threshold. A positive result, rather than simply being added to the case counts broadcast constantly by Fox News and MSNBC, must consider other factors such as test specifics, symptoms, and patient history, as would be done for most other laboratory tests in medicine.

Lowering the cycle threshold means fewer cases going forward, not due to anything Trump or Biden did or did not do but simply because of a new way of counting cases. Interestingly this notice was created on Jan. 13, but not released until Jan. 20, Biden's inauguration day. What a coincidence!

I bet Xiden will get a Nobel prize for his humanitarian work that had immediate positive effects even befor he lowered his hand from the swearing in ceremony.

Although Biden has recently admitted that he has no actual plan for dealing with the virus, I think everyone recognizes that his brilliant leadership is exactly what has allowed us to turn the corner.

Although newly-elected (gag) Biden recently admitted "he has no actual plan for dealing with the virus," everyone
recognizes his brilliant leadership (emanating from his basement) is exactly what has allowed us to turn the corner.

Love it.......

“This confirms the lingering question of how much of COVID was about the actual virus versus a political club to hurt President Trump and drive him from office, quite successfully.”

I sort of disagree with this statement. COVID perhaps hurt President Trump’s chances at reelection a little bit, but still in all 75+ million people voted for the guy. Anybody with half a brain knows that President Trump won by a landslide. No, COVID played a part....a small part..... it was fraud, cheating, lying, and stealing that drove President Trump was from office. The communist vermin of the Democrat party won the election by cheating.

As always, the phony baloney medical bureaucrats and lying journalists do their part in propping up the Dims.

If this action by the WHO stands without any outcry from the international medical community, the entire profession should be held guilty of malpractice. Someone with an “MD” next to their name ought to at least call it out for what it was—a political tool to help push Trump out of office...and one used on a global level.

Similar to when Obama changed the way unemployment numbers were counted to make the number look better.

Fauci was on every channel Sunday "clarifying" the promise to get 1 million new people vaccinated in the first 100 days.

You see, Biden didn't mean that, he meant that included in this figure would be the 30 million people Trump already vaccinated with a first dose and they were ALREADY SCHEDULED to receive their 2nd dose - so he really will only vaccinate around 70 million - just a little fuzzy math from the cognitively challenged.
