House Republican calls second bout of COVID-19 'far more challenging'
The Hill ^ | 25 Jul 2021 | CAROLINE VAKIL

Posted on 07/26/2021 1:11:26 AM PDT by blueplum

Rep. Clay Higgins (R-La.) announced on Facebook Sunday evening that he and his wife had contracted COVID-19 for the second time, calling it "far more challenging."

“I have COVID, Becca has COVID, my son has COVID. Becca and I had COVID before, early on, in January 2020, before the world really knew what it was. So, this is our second experience with the CCP biological attack weaponized virus… and this episode is far more challenging. It has required all of my devoted energy,” he wrote...

Corona Virus is not the normal flu. In the past it was not transmissible to humans.

But the flu can be more deadly than what we are calling the Covid19 virus.

This is NOT about public health, it is about a Globalist Agenda.

Lies don’t stack well, the pieces never fit.

My wife and I suspect we had it early in the crisis.

I give blood regularly, about 6 months ago the regional hospital who has the blood bank texted me and I tested negative. (this was not an approved test)

Antibody tests are hugely inaccurate.

So is the PCR Test.

I don’t trust anything that the government says related to this (and to most things they push).

Lies don’t stack well, when they pile up, they eventually fall.

Corona viruses are cold viruses. There are also Rhino viruses that are cold viruses.

Flu viruses are influenza viruses.

So if you want to “own the the language on this” (which I agree with) it really helps to use the correct words.

The flu, which is a coronavirus, is something that happens every year. So tired of the hyperbole.

No the flu is not a corona virus - it is an influenza virus.

So tired of the morons posting crap they don't understand.

“Corona Virus is not the normal flu.”

Corona viruses are not the flu at all. Corona viruses and also Rhino viruses are common cold viruses. Corona viruses have been transmittable to man for longer than we knew what what a virus even is. Corona viruses have resulted in pneumonia for ever.

There are many Corona viruses that have not been transmittable too man. Covid 19 is likely one of them. We are told it “jumped species”. It appears too many of us it was modified in a lab.

The flu narrative was adopted because we already associate the flu as having a deadly history and we are accustom to flu vaccinations. The common cold does not sound scary to us and we have been always told there is “no cure for the common cold”

Possible, but coronaviruses, rhinoviruses, and the flu mutate and circle the globe forever.

Nope. Wrong. There is no evidence of rhinovirus mutation - there are over 130 rhinoviruses and you get immune from each specific rhino you catch.

But don't let that stop you from bloviating.

What about the "Swine Flu" and "Bird Flu"....were those chicom-bioweapons as well?

I had walking pneumonia Nov - Dec 2019. I was only feeling bad for about 3-4 days. My chest rattled and I sounded horrible for many weeks but otherwise felt fine. I was told “there a nasty chest cold going around”.

SARS 2 is not the common cold.

Covid19 is almost identical to SARS 2.

Some humans already had antibodies for SARS2 and they don’t get Covid19

We are being lied to and the public gets it.

If we can keep the machine from stealing the next election, they will get kicked to the curb. If this lasts to the next election.

I don’t know. I am pointing out that Corona viruses are NOT FLU VIRUSES.
Nowhere did I say anything in my post about Chicom anything.

“I was just stating that numerous vaccinated people have come down with covid a second time.”

Certainly. But with prior infection immunity or the vaccines the general hospitalization time is a day and downtime (rest) around 3 - 7 days. Just had someone from work get it first time last week. He was Pfizer-vaccinated in Jan. He spent a day in hospital and is assigned two weeks convalescence. Imo if he’d had it before he’d have never been admitted.

“SARS 2 is not the common cold”

I never said that it was. I said Corona viruses are common cold viruses. The SARS versions are new hence not common (yet). My point has been all along, this is not influenza.

Correct. It has been going on for a long time but it is off the charts in the past 5 years and it has been at an explosive level since the November 3rd, 2020 election was stolen.

Same here.

People in government suddenly started comming clean on the origin of Covid -19 being the Wuhan Virology Institute right about the time the Delta virus showed up in India.

Of course they knew all along the true origin and took a “well, mistakes were made but lets keep it quite for the good of the people” stance up until the CCP followed up with the release of another engineered virus and a high level Chinese intelligence official defected to the DIA with evidence of China's bio weapons programs.

I’m not questioning him, but it is very doubtful he got the same virus the 2nd time.

I agree. My wife and I were both sick with some kind of upper respratory crap that sent us to the doctor back in January 2020, but it wasn't covid.
