The Delta variant of COVID-19 is now the dominant strain worldwide.
U.S. cases of COVID-19 are up 70% over the previous week and deaths are up 26%, with outbreaks occurring in parts of the country with low vaccination rates, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky said during a (16 July) press briefing. "This is becoming a pandemic of the unvaccinated," Walensky said, adding that 97% of people entering hospitals in the United States with COVID-19 are unvaccinated. (Over 99% of COVID deaths are among the unvaccinated)
Los Angeles to reinstate indoor mask mandate (regardless of vaccination status) as COVID cases surge.
The Delta variant has now become dominant in New York City.
States with the highest case rates, are now seeing their vaccination rates go up more than average, according to the White House today (16 July).
Dr. Scott Gottlieb, President Trump's former FDA chief (now on the Pfizer Board) said (on CNBC’s Squawk Box) he believes the U.S. is undercounting the number of Delta variant infections because the “denominator” is still unknown and vaccinated people who are infected are likely to have mild symptoms and not seek testing.
England is set to move forward with its so-called Freedom Day on Monday, marking the end of legal lockdown curbs and coronavirus health restrictions, some of which have been in place since March 2020.
On July 19, the last remaining closed UK businesses, including nightclubs, will reopen, and wearing masks will no longer be a legal requirement in public places, although they will still be "expected and recommended" in crowded indoor areas. The government will no longer advise people to work from home.
The number of Delta variant infections in the UK decreased week over week, indicating that their outbreak may have crested.
The Philippines on Friday (16 July) reported its first local cases of the delta variant.
FDA grants priority review to Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine; decision on approval expected by January 2022.
European Medicines Agency said a decision on whether to recommend that Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine be authorized for 12-17 year olds is expected late next week. If approved, it would be the first such license for Moderna’s use in minors globally.
Dr. Peter McCullough: ‘whistleblowers’ inside CDC claim injections have already killed 50,000 Americans

‘Good doctors are doing unthinkable things’ …They ‘appear to be under a spell’
via LeoHohmann.com
The most highly cited physician on the early treatment of COVID-19 has come out with an explosive new video that blows the lid off the medical establishment’s complicity in the unnecessary deaths of tens of thousands of Americans.
Dr. Peter McCullough said these deaths have been facilitated by a false narrative bent on pushing an all-new, unproven vaccine for a disease that was highly treatable.
He said COVID was a bioweapon and the vaccines represent “phase two” of that bioweapon.
“As this, in a sense, bioterrorism phase one was rolled out, it was really all about keeping the population in fear and in isolation and preparing them to accept the vaccine, which appears to be phase two of a bioterrorism operation,”
McCullough said in a June 11 webinar with German attorney Reiner Fuellmich and several other doctors.
He noted:
“Both the respiratory virus and the vaccine delivered to the human body the spike protein, the gain of function target of this bioterrorism research.”
“Now I can’t come out and say all this on national TV today or at any time,” he continued. “But, what we had learned over time is that we could no longer communicate with government agencies. We actually couldn’t even communicate with our propagandized colleagues in major medical centers, all of which appear to be under a spell, almost as if they are hypnotized right now.”
He did not hold back in his criticism of his colleagues in the medical community.
“And doctors, good doctors, are doing unthinkable things, like injecting biologically active messenger RNA that produces this pathological spike protein into pregnant women. I think when the doctors wake up from their trance they’re going to be shocked to think what they’ve done to people.”
McCullough is professor of medicine and vice chief of internal medicine at Baylor University and also teaches at Texas A&M University. He is an epidemiologist, cardiologist and internist and has testified before the Texas State Senate related to COVID-19 treatments. He holds the distinction of being the most widely cited physician in the treatment of COVID-19 with more than 600 citations in the National Library of Medicine.
In the video, recorded by Oval Media, McCullough said:
“The first wave of the bioterrorism is a respiratory virus that spread across the world, and affected relatively few people—about one percent of many populations—but generated great fear.”
He said the virus targeted primarily people over 50 with multiple medical conditions. It poses almost no risk to children.
He said 85 percent of the more than 600,000 U.S. deaths could have been prevented with a multi-drug treatment given in the early to mid-point of the disease.
Instead, people were told to stay home and not return to the hospital unless their symptoms got worse, such as severe breathing problems. By then it was too late for many. They were placed on ventilators and died.
The vast majority of doctors jumped in lockstep to follow these erroneous “guidelines” handed down by the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control. Those guidelines neglected to place any focus on the treatment of sick patients and, from the beginning, as early as April 2020, started emphasizing the need for a vaccine as the only real hope of beating back the virus.
The federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System [VAERS] logged 5,993 reports of deaths of people injected with the COVID vaccine between Dec. 14, 2020, and June 11, 2021. That’s more than all the deaths reported to VAERS from all other vaccines combined over the last 22 years.
But these numbers, as shocking as they are, don’t scratch the surface of the actual number of dead Americans, said McCullough.
“We have now a whistleblower inside the CMS, and we have two whistleblowers in the CDC. We think we have 50,000 dead Americans. Fifty thousand deaths. So we actually have more deaths due to the vaccine per day than certainly the viral illness by far. It’s basically propagandized bioterrorism by injection.”
McCullough added that “every single thing that was done in public health in response to the pandemic made it worse.”
He said the suppression of early COVID treatments, such as hydroxychloroquine and especially Ivermectin, “was tightly linked to the development of a vaccine.”
Without the suppression of the already-available treatments, the government would not have been able to legally grant Emergency Use Authorization to the three vaccines rushed to market by Moderna, Pfizer and Johnson and Johnson.
In the case of Moderna, the U.S. government is co-patent holder through the National Institutes of Health, a clear conflict of interest.
“I published basically the only two papers that teach doctors how to treat COVID-19 at home to prevent hospitalization and death…If treated early, it results in an 85 percent reduction in hospitalizations and death,” McCullough said.
So not only were the vaccines rolled out unnecessarily by suppressing already available, effective treatments, but the FDA and CDC are now covering up tragic numbers of deaths caused by their experimental mRNA injections.
McCullough said he has organized groups around the world that emphasize early treatment.
“Governments have actually tried to block early treatment of COVID patients, so we created a home patient guide,” he said.
“We broke through to the people, and the people who got sick with COVID called in to get medications from mail-order distribution pharmacies. So without the government even knowing what went on, we crushed the epidemic here in the United States towards the end of December and January. We basically took care of the pandemic with about 500 doctors and telemedicine services. And to this day we treat about 25 percent of the US COVID-19 population that actually are at high risk, over age 50 with medical problems or present with severe symptoms. And we basically handled the pandemic, and at the same time we’ve tried to keep ourselves above the political fray.”
McCullough said his focus has recently turned to the unnecessary and dangerous injections.
“We are working to change the public view of the vaccine. The public initially accepted the vaccine and we had to kind of slowly turn the ship. Now, in the U.S. the rates of vaccination have been dropping since April 8. Most of the vaccination centers are empty.”
“We have a lot going on in the United States. We are engaging more and more attorneys.”
Our cases are at about 25% where they were in January. That’s many more than we had just a month ago. Almost all unvaccinated. I haven’t had any that were vaccinated yet.
This will end but it’s going to have to burn through a little more fuel first I’m afraid.
Good explanation of Delta infectiousness.

“... This study attempted to address this in quarantined close contacts of confirmed cases. These people were tested daily by PCR, which allowed the investigators to determine the course of infection: longitudinal viral loads and time from exposure to positivity and symptoms...”
Arkansas (along with Missouri, Louisiana and a few others) is right on the front line of this wave - likely to be a bellwether for how it will play out Nationally.
There is still time for at risk people to get vaccine protection - significant immunity improvement starts a week after the first shot. But the Delta wave is here, and we will likely see cases rise rapidly for a month or two.
The estimate is half the volume of the Winter wave, in a more compressed timeframe, with lower severity and mortality rates. That will vary locally, based on existing immunity levels.
“… he believes the U.S. is undercounting the number of Delta variant infections because the “denominator” is still unknown and vaccinated people who are infected are likely to have mild symptoms and not seek testing.…”

IMHO, with very rare exceptions, people with COVID-19 IMMUNITY through vaccination or prior infection will simply have their existing immunity further strengthened with each additional exposure to the COVID-19 virus regardless of the variant.
Masks (at least the non-N95 types which most people wear) will be useless for the Delta variants just as they were for earlier variants. END ALL MASK MANDATES AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS!
our current president biden put the brakes on former president trump’s operation warp speed when he decided to open our border, invite, welcome, and spread thousands of “disease carrying invaders” across our country during a “global pandemic”...
trusting statistics and anything our current administration says about this situation is foolish and stupid...
There’s another study that goes further into the mechanics of why Delta is more virulent. It asserts that Delta’s L452R mutation not only increases binding, but escapes cellular immunity, thus the immune system takes longer to detect and attack the virus and infected cells.

Good thread on people’s attitude today:
https://twitter.com/BallouxFrancois/status/1415987923397251073
“One of the most challenging problem we’re facing at this stage of the pandemic is how to deal with the widespread and understandable disappointment caused by empty promises.
“Stay at home, the virus will go away!”
People stay at home, virus doesn’t oblige ...
“Mask up, the virus will go away!”
People mask up, virus doesn’t oblige ...
“Get vaccinated, the virus will go away!”
People get vaccinated, virus doesn’t oblige ...”
My fave comment there though:
“If this is the first time you’ve had to face up to governments of all colours offering empty promises, you’re very lucky indeed. Many, many people live with it all the time, and many, many people have faced it way before COVID struck.”
It’s annoying
With regard to vaccinated people increasing immune response through infection/exposure, it seems intuitive that would be the case. Still, we should see studies late this year confirming if that is the case.
How many are illegals?
Don’t talk about masks/shutdowns/multi-vaccinations until you do these things...
Immediately close the Southern Border
Immediately cease all movements of illegal immigrants by plane or bus-they stay at the border for 90 days or more until the variant burns out (this is what Ellis Island was for)
Immediately stop all incoming international flights from places with high COVID counts...like India
Immediately approve the Novavax vaccine which is 90% effective on all known variants
Immediately approve ivermectin and HCQ and any other theraputics/preventatives under the right-to-try rules.
the challenging problem for the current administration is biden opening the border, inviting, welcoming, and spreading thousands of “disease carrying invaders” across our country during a “global pandemic” and then accusing our citizens that refuse the experimental shots of spreading the virus...
Just a week ago under Operation Warp Speed, the US paid Novavax $1.6B for 100M doses. I'd say that's a pretty good indication their EUA is about to be approved. Now let's see if they can manufacture it.
As for the rest of your post, if you think the Biden regime is going to implement border controls and stop new democrat voters from entering the US, I have a bridge to sell you.
None of mine but I’m sure that’s not helping
Reposting this for all those looking at natural immunity now (which is very good!).
https://twitter.com/profshanecrotty/status/1408186182693883904
“Hybrid vigor can occur when different plant lines are bred together. Something similar happens when natural immunity is combined with vaccine-generated immunity, resulting in 25 to 100 times higher antibody responses, driven by memory B and CD4 T cells...”
I have relatives in MO so I pay attention to the numbers. They have had an uptick in cases for almost three weeks. Deaths are around 2 to 6 a day - so still not much to talk about. The people getting Delta around the country are the young-unvaxxed (and should stay unvaxxed according me, as their innate immune system will only get stronger if they get this less virulent strain).
Another day, another 285 Americans dead from COVID.
You make a big deal about the potential use of cell lines that might have been extracted from a single human fetus a half century ago, but those hundreds of souls per day are just a statistic to be waived away.
More on the way. Predictably, and preventably.
