The current spread of the COVID-19 delta variant has caused the New York International Auto Show to cancel its annual event, The Associated Press reported.

The show organizers announced Wednesday that the recent wave of infections and current COVID-19 restrictions state officials have enforced led to the cancellation of the event, according to the AP.

“Over the past few weeks, especially within the past few days, circumstances have changed, making it more difficult to create an event at the high standard that we and our clients expect,” the show's president Mark Schienberg said.

Wouldn’t it be more prudent to Move the Show to a Free State?

This is not a biological variant, it’s only a verbal variant.

“This is not a biological variant, it’s only a verbal variant.”

True. The covid test is a joke and a waste of money. The test for covid cannot separate various viruses. Plus, the test for covid cannot separate flu from covid.

“Covid. Delta. Delta Plus...” What name will the stupid virus get next week?

Why would ANYONE have ANY public event in ANY of these tyrannical “Blue” states? Let them starve and freeze in the dark. Don’t sell them ANYTHING. Let the good folks leave and emigrate to “Red” States.

From the delta variant of the covid 19 to the omega variant of the covid 19, we will soon end up with covid 20.

Mark my words.
