Wow! You mean it maybe like the common cold?
Ok, so let’s get back to normal now and live with it.
Sort of.
After hearing over and over that the ‘black population’ would be disproportionally impacted by COVID-19... How come African countries have near ZERO cases and fatalities?
I heard that one country had 45 million people, 4000 cases and only 44 deaths.
How is that possible? No social distancing, no masks, people touching each other...
I heard mentioned that it was because they regularly were attacked by Malaria, and most people took malaria medication (Hydroxychloroquine).
If that is the case... I WOULD BE REALLY MAD!!!
Why did 200,000 had to die here in the USA if that was the fix? why did we had to close up the country?
The scamdemic has given new life to these rat despicable governors and mayors. Control the masses by any means necessary, this is thier perfect storm. Already some gov and mayors are claiming flu spikes surging in many urban areas coincidentally right before the election and a reason for them to close the polls and force mail in ballots. you just watch
btt
The part of the title that says “We Will be living with the virus indefinitely” is really very silly.
OF COURSE WE WILL, not matter what.
The bug that caused the 1918-19 Spanish Flu Pandemic is still with us. It is one of the bugs included in what is collectively known as “seasonal flu”. So, yes, even the “Spanish Flu” is still with us.
ALL that happens with MOST deadly viruses is the contest between them and our remedies against them reaches a less deadly status quo we can live with, that’s all. We currently live with many live viruses in our system and with that knowledge is the realization that most of them are not killing us.
Some viruses, via survival of their hosts over thousands of generations, are the mutated/adapted viral descendants destined to survive by being not so deadly to their hosts.
Any virus that could kill all its hosts and survive would die with its last host.
If LIFE’S chief ambition is to survive, adapting to be less deadly to the majority of its hosts is how the majority of viruses we have managed to still be with us today.
The Spanish Flu was extremely deadly when it first arose. Of course (1) it has had mutations since then, and (2) our immune systems and (3) medicines have improved our defenses against it. The combination of all three of those things works in favor of us reaching a livable entente with most viruses, without ever eliminating them entirely.
