Coronavirus pandemic could be over within two years - WHO head
bbc ^ | 08/22/2020 | n/a

Posted on 08/26/2020 5:50:42 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

The head of the World Health Organization (WHO) says he hopes the coronavirus pandemic will be over in under two years.

Speaking in Geneva, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the Spanish flu of 1918 had taken two years to overcome.

But he added that current advances in technology could enable the world to halt the virus "in a shorter time".

"Of course with more connectiveness, the virus has a better chance of spreading," he said.

"But at the same time, we have also the technology to stop it, and the knowledge to stop it," he noted, stressing the importance of "national unity, global solidarity".

The flu of 1918 killed at least 50 million people.

Over, never.
Overshadowed by something else, certainly.

Death rate 0.04%.

It’s a flu.

Let’s shutdown the world permanently because there are always people dying of the flu.

It’s already over for a lot of folks.
They’ve had it, got over it and are continuing on with life.

Yes, that’s the next phase. Sadly doesn’t seem so far-fetched now, does it?

Four years maybe if they can convince people to stay quarantined and stifle herd immunity.

It will never disappear.
It will mutate and circle the globe for all humanity.

That said, it’s not the Spanish flu, and we should open completely.

Corona virus should be renamed the Cloward-Piven virus.

After the election there will be a “vaccine”. It will be expensive and ineffective, may or may not have serious side effects. The vaccine will be forced on the sheep, and things will begin to go back to normal.

The virus is running it’s course, and may or may not recede, but it will cease to be covered on an hourly basis.
