Surgeon General Vivek Murthy reminds me of some sesame street or muppet puppet, not sure which one.

regardless, if he was a competent doctor he would have given his own family decent medical advice

Careful, pretty soon Murthy will also ask counties to require non-lobotomized citizens (not all residents, of course) to wear anti-lobotomy caps.

After all, if we can save just one life...

Has anyone noticed, if the CDC numbers are to be believed, that twice as many people have died, in 6 months, under the biden / harris regime, with the vaccines, than in one year under the President Trump administration, without vaccines?

I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees.

Enough. Fed up.

Vivek Murthy - sounds like something the gangster from “Johnny Dangerously” would say.

Looks like another winter of no flu deaths.

If you have symptoms of anything, stay home. If not live your life. There is no danger of asymptomatic spread. That is an invention of the lying liars in medicine and media.

A lot of so called doctors need to find a new calling...This has destroyed any trust in the medical community....

My next door neighbor told me a year ago masks did not work...she is a nurse...

He’s in “dialogue” with businesses. I America, we say “We are/have been talking with....” Screw dialogue. I belongs on the stage, not at a press conference.

it’s a whole lot of word salad to say positive cases have gone from 0.4% (not much spread) to 4.1%

it would take a lot more courage to say where it’s coming from but OpenBorders Biden knows

Scroll about half way down to spreadsheet preview and it has a breakout of covid vs flu/pneumonia, covid and total deaths. Covid looks to be about 12% of all US deaths (600K/5M). (Start of pandemic it was 16%)

https://data.cdc.gov/NCHS/Provisional-COVID-19-Deaths-by-Sex-and-Age/9bhg-hcku

hospitalization rates, cummulative chart
https://gis.cdc.gov/grasp/COVIDNet/COVID19_3.html

July, 2021: 1 in 5 infected need hospitalization and 1 in 5 of those need advanced levels of care. Total hospitalized since August of last year 2.3 million :
https://www.upi.com/Health_News/2021/07/13/coronavirus-severity-hospitalizations-study/6711626184324/

I went back and looked at Nov 7 2020 death rate, which would have been pre-vaccine, and that estimate was 12.3% (with 102,579 in hospital):
