1) As more and more people realize that the CCP Flu isn't the black death and that "most of those who are infected suffer relatively mild symptoms and many don’t even get sick, health officials say."....only the very sickest are getting tested.

DUH!

Of course the positive test rate would be rising.

So, in response,

2) Tommie the Commie decides that instead of moving the goal posts it is time to raise the limbo stick:

"Even in counties with substantial spread of COVID-19, schools are advised they can continue offering at least a blended learning model mixing remote instruction with in-person classes, Wolf’s office said."

Bottom line: This isn't the Spanish Influenze. Never was.

It’s the third straight week the positive rate has risen in Pennsylvania. At one point, the rate had dropped for 12 straight weeks.

And this surprises people? We had 'flattened the curve' last summer, in the July-Sept period in particular. Then it rose again. Maybe they should have shoveled billions of dollars into researching potential treatments instead of betting the farm on a vaccine platform that never worked for anything before.

I spent Saturday at an auction in Lancaster county. But the crowd must mostly Amish so since they don’t have tv, the virus doesn’t really affect them.

Who cares how many cases we have, especially with a 99%+ survival rate!

But gosh so many people have been vaccinated! Maybe the vaccine is causing the outbreaks! People who get the vaccine but aren’t sick - are they shedding the virus the same way the flu shot works?
Cause and effect man. Nothing else has changed.

How many deaths?
Cases are one thing, deaths are another.

Thanks but the winner is actually another FReeper. There was a post about the actress who played Mrs. Mitchell on Dennis the Menace who died yesterday.

Someone mentioned that Jay North, who played Dennis was an active FReeper. A guy confirmed that because he said his sister is Mrs. North.

99%+ survival rate

Close, 98.4%

500000 deaths divided by 30000000 cases = 0.016 x 100 = 1.6

My question is, which PCR detection method are they using? I mean, there is no question rural PA is not using RT–PCR, so ... what it comes down to, FRiends, is that this Chinese bug was designed to infect and reinfect and reinfect and reinfect and reinfect and reinfect and reinfect and reinfect and reinfect and reinfect and reinfect and reinfect.

Over time they hoped it would (a) kill off ALL the 'useless' eaters; and (b) degrade the health of a healthy non-Chinese host to the point of exhaustion.

So you could be carrying a miniscule viral load that does not comprise 'infection' and trigger an older PCR test that has not been supplanted by RT-PCR.

We're simply not being told that this Chinese-designed spike protein envelope is capable of reinfecting you over and over and over, but in 99% of the population, once having overcome the initial infection, with vastly diminishing impacts/results.

However, global governments have been made aware of the reinfection capabilities -- by the Chinese -- and so have scripted their Global Reset around these PCR 're-infections' which venn to nothingness the second time around. Maybe you have the plops for day (intestinal shedding), maybe not. H1N1 was the Great Pandemic, the "Spanish Flu" and now it only shows up virulently infrequently -- as it actually DID under Bobo, but that's a whole other thread's worth of discussion.

Remember a large number of those “positives” are fake as the tests are largely unreliable.

Pennsylvania has had more than a year to train personnel and build facilities to deal with the China Virus.

If it hasn’t done so, then the people of Pennsylvania should insist on a complete turnover in state government.

"However, global governments have been made aware of the reinfection capabilities -- by the Chinese -- and so have scripted their Global Reset around these PCR 're-infections'"

What these governments cannot get around, is that their ICU units are not even busy (I don't even buy the Paris' arrondissements stories, no first-hand reporting and the French are fucking lazy liars. I love 'em but they LIE almost as badly as the Chinese); the masks were NEVER enforced in shitholes like Rio's barrios; and the masks have finally come off in Xiden's dytopia. Even Fauxi had to admit that the vaccine passport is a NON-STARTER today.

So my advice to PA is, get your shit in order: force PCR to the sidelines and enforce only RT–PCR testing; pass draconian voting eligibility laws; and outlaw trannies in your public government.

...more than 25,000 deaths have been tied to COVID-19...

I wonder how many of those deaths have been CAUSED by covid?

First your numerator assume all are covid deaths, which we know is not the case, but lets just say they are for the sake of argument.

Next your denominator assumes that is all the covid cases there have been. That certainly is not the case, that true number is certainly much higher.

And what happens when our denominator increases but our numerator does not? Say it with me class.....

It does not remotely resemble a Vaccine.
