Brilliant… Legendary golfer Phil Mickelson asks question about Omicron that all of us are wondering
Biz Pac Review ^ | 12/24/2021 | BPR Wire

Posted on 12/24/2021 2:20:37 PM PST by SeekAndFind

Professional golfer Phil Mickelson triggered leftists on social media after asking some logical questions about the COVID-19 pandemic and its latest variant.

The 51-year-old PGA champion said he was “just curious” about some things regarding the omicron variant and posed questions that many would agree were fair things to consider, be they from politicians and public health officials or from non-experts such as Mickelson.

Serious question since I’m not a dr. If omicron is contagious but not deadly(25,000 cases in Africa with no deaths) why try and control it?” he asked in a tweet on Thursday.

“Why not let it go and let people get it and develop immunity? Especially for those who won’t get vaccinated?” he wrote, adding, “Pls no hate, I’m just curious.”

In the not-so-distant past, asking questions like these would not land someone in the line of fire but would have sparked lively debate and discourse. But in 2021, Mickelson’s straightforward queries set off criticism from lefties who, like Dr. Anthony Fauci, leave no room for logical questions about the virus and its variants.

Do you even understand statistics? If the new variant is 70x more infectious and deaths are the same or even slightly more , the Omicron variant is a blessing. You cannot stop this contagion at this point, you can only hope for a lower death rate which Omicron is providing. Natural immunity is a wonderful thing, and is going to happen regardless of asks, social distancing and/or lockdowns.

John Rahm lost the player of the year award and the FedEx cup with its $10 million dollar prize because of the points he lost in the tournament where he was forced to withdraw on the final day. Two months later he tested positive again and had to miss the Olympics which he was very enthusiastic about.

I see a lot of very poor illogical analogies and opinion in this essentially op-ed article from Forbes (🤣) but not a lot of bibliographical references

“Because people wont drop dead 5 years hence and kids wont be sterilized after the correct people make their billions before the great culling/reset”

This doesn’t quite make sense. If the “vaccine” turns out to be as lethal as that, pretty much every liberal will be dead and the world will be an infinitely better place. That’s surely not the type of “reset” the puppetmasters are trying for here.

“If so, what has the “healthcare system” been doing for the last two years? Why isn’t it ready?”

An excellent question I was asking a year ago. What’s been done about it?

From what I’ve read, Omicron is targeting the vaccinated.

Seriously….

I don’t get what is wrong with these people. They just can’t help reposting when they find an article that says…”Anyone who says you probably won’t get reinfected, doesn’t know that for 100% certain!” or maybe …..”examples have been discovered of people catching it twice so that means you aren’t protected” .

They have to abandon 100 years of medical history and common sense and say…”Please give us a reason to fear and freak out!!!!”

Once natural immunity starts getting factored in, passports and government boots on necks become unworkable. This is why they cling so tightly to such a silly notion.

After reading all of these comments it’s funny to not see one thing.

Everyone is talking about the variants. Not one person is talking about the treatment protocols being used and potentially being something that greatly contributes to the deaths.

There are 1000s front line doctors, with no voice because of the CDC, Fauci, and ALL the fear mongers, that have been successfully treating people in ways completely counter to what the aforementioned recommend.

If the math is right, 3 people of of 1000 will die as a result of getting this virus or either of its variants. Of those 3 how many are just getting a tube shoved down their throat and some Remdesivir until they did? While others that have been on deaths door, receive a treatment protocol outside of Fauci’s rules and recover with no issues.

Amazing that so many on here that have subjugated themselves to a cult.

Look a little past this virus. Look at how folks are being treated in these hospitals. Hospitals get paid for folks to die.

Bangladesh records zero daily COVID-19 death for 1st time in 19 months

http://www.news.cn/english/2021-11/20/c_1310323094.htm

A country that defines poverty and filth, EVERYONE should be dead. Yet…

On side note, the hospital in Texas came out with a press release stating that the guy DID NOT have the omicron variant.

Yes....the fear of china virus IS off of the charts.....thanks to FRAUDci and his Faucists and the MSM.

Prayers up for all who’ve been ‘feared’ into these risky $hots.

Merry Christmas, entropy.

RE: Last I heard hospital staffs are exiting because of forced vaccinations..

If enough numbers did, that would have made a huge difference to stop the vax mandates. Alas, only a minority are.

Russia is getting smashed. Go look at their death curves.

Stop believing articles. Do your own examination of numbers, from Russia.

Ok, let's examine. Cases in Russia have been on a decline since Nov 6. Deaths have been on a decline since Nov 21.
