The Delta Surge May Collapse Sooner Than You Think
Zdogg MD blog ^ | 8/3/2021 | Zdogg MD

Hey, are you guys detecting a pattern here? Every time things start to look better, all of a sudden the news is like, “Oh my God, Delta, we’re all gonna die!” Look at the surge, mask mandates are back.

Oh my God! Who’s getting paid for that? The news, they love that, they love that stuff, you guys. But here’s an interesting truth. Look what happened in Great Britain. All right, I’m linking here to an article by David Wallace-Wells, where he lays this out.

So, the vaccines do what they’re supposed to do, which is prevent you from dying and getting really sick. Now they may not prevent infection and they may not prevent transmission, why? Because it’s a mucosal virus that seems, especially Delta, it replicates a lot in the narrow, nasopharynx, in the nose and the mucosal membranes there, which means that, you know, the vaccine works in the blood. It’s an, it’s an, IM vaccine that generates blood antibodies and that sort of response. So the virus can still start to replicate and take up home in the nasopharynx and make you a little sick, a little sick, before you get that blood protection. Unlike measles, where it’s mostly bloodborne, so, you have plenty of defense from a vaccination, sterilizing immunity, same with like smallpox, things like that. So this is different, it’s a mucosal respiratory virus. So in this article, he also talks about, well, what about the possibility of nasal vaccines that are administered by a spray that you can mail to people that are refrigerator or room temperature stable, that induce IgA mediated immunity in the mucosa, you could actually get potentially, fully protective immunity, even from infection.

rest at source.

Not all pro-vax types are insane. Some make very rational sense.

Btw, I used Zicam nasal swabs when I had Covid. They worked quite well. My sense of taste and smell only got weird rather than lost altogether and I only had a mild fever for 24 hours. Zero lung involvement because it didn't get past my nose.

No. The Party of Compassion won’t allow that.

It's a case of lots of positives but few people actually seriously ill from this variant. Especially those who have the full vaccine regime and those who have recovered from a COVID bout earlier.

Delta gone to make way for the new improved ‘gamma tau omega’ variant.

The anti-vaxxers will protest this unless it’s been subjected to three phases of trials with at least 500,000 participants lasting at least 10 years. Adverse reactions may not exceed one in a billion and the vaccine must be at least 99.99999999% effective in preventing any infections.

It must be blissful for one to pass through life as ambiguous and clueless as Mr Magoo without glasses. Your lack of basic insight is stunning.

If X/1000 people get waylaid by Covid in State F & State T, then it may only be a matter of time before ~X/1000 people get waylaid by Covid in other states.

The virus has no geographic reckoning ability.

The msm are already y hyping the ‘dangerous new variant... lambda or whatever it’s called... ‘several new cases found in Texas ‘ blah blah blah. Delta is out, lambda is in now apparently

China’s Delta Outbreak Worsens As Goldman, Bank Of America Cut Growth Forecasts

"China’s latest COVID outbreak, the fourth wave to hit the country, has officially become the country’s worst outbreak since the virus first emerged, as the delta variant continues to spread despite Beijing’s heavy-handed response, which has involved testing of millions of people, travel restrictions, and, in a few cases, residential or local lockdowns."

The nasal vaccine approach is very, very interesting.

It would drastically cut virus mutation ability and days lost to self-quarantining.

But...but theres the Lamda variant....and then the most dreaded mutation of them all

Which will then lead to mass food shortages and we'll turn to.....

Which will then lead us to.....

Dam you Charlton Heston!

Infection does not reside in the mucus.

It resides in the cells that produce the mucus.

And every cell is serviced by the circulatory system.

This guy is selling snake oil with the same elaborate BS story it’s been sold with for thousands of years.

"Anthony, the Delta surge is collapsing quicker than we'd planned. I know I can count on you to help deliver a new virus!"

See the graph about two-thirds down; hospitalizations are about 40% of the peak and climbing fast:

No, but it does have to reckon with weather and how it affects human behavior and weather is geographical, so patterns of infection will be somewhat different.

When people spend more time indoors to escape from either from heat or cold, more transmission.

So hot Texas and Florida get late summer surges and northern states should probably expect fall spikes.

I was wondering about using those. I have used them when I feel a cold coming on (which is quite rare for me) and it "Kicks" the cold in the ASS! A cold and covid are both viruses.

Parents might want to show their school boards the “Trends in Hospitalizations in Children Ages 4 Years and Younger” graph about 70% down:

Parents will still need to set aside money to send Junior and the Little Princess off to college.
