A newly released Monmouth University Poll reveals that 70% of Americans agree it’s time to accept that COVID is here to stay and move on with our lives. I couldn’t agree more.
Interestingly, of the 70% who agree it’s time to move on, 78% “report having gotten COVID and 65% of those who say they have not been infected.” It seems even those who have yet to get the virus are saying enough is enough. Surprisingly, exposure to the virus doesn’t appear to be the main factor in determining whether it’s “time to move on.” Monmouth claims the main factor “is due to partisanship—ranging from 89% of Republicans and 71% of independents to 47% of Democrats.” Seriously? That seems a little partisan and short-sighted since Americans of all parties prefer to work, attend school, and live life over being locked down.
“Americans’ worries about COVID haven’t gone away,” said Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute. “It seems more to be a realization that we are not going to get this virus under control in a way that we thought was possible just last year.” Of course, they haven’t gone away because Biden and his Democratic minions push COVID fear 24/7.

Americans’ fading faith in the ability of resident Biden and the federal government to successfully manage the pandemic is evident in the poll. “A key factor in the public’s inclination to accept having to live with COVID ... healthy people getting and recovering from COVID is the fastest way to herd immunity according to the science

Overall it’s certainly encouraging that more Americans are coming to realize COVID is here to stay. We can and we must get on with life

About 22 months behind a lot of folks.
The other 30% are lefty Hypochondriacs living in their bubble.
***The Monmouth University Poll was conducted by telephone from January 20 to 24, 2022 with 794 adults in the United States.***
LOLOLOLOL
Virtue Soapboxing is a powerful drug.
A new Rasmussen poll shows that HUGE numbers of Leftist Democrats want to see unvaccinated Americans stripped of their basic human rights:
59% of Democrats want unvaccinated Americans to be barricaded in their own homes… unable to leave for ANY reason other than emergencies.
58% of Democrats want the government to FINE Americans who do not get the COVID-19 vaccine.
48% of Democrats want the government to IMPRISON or fine Americans who question the effectiveness of the vaccines.
47% of Democrats want the government to track every movement of unvaccinated Americans.
45% of Democrats want the unvaccinated to be evicted from their homes and moved into prison camps until they get vaccinated.
29% of Democrats want to take KIDS away from unvaccinated parents.
Last week, the Salt Lake Tribune called for the military to imprison the unvaccinated in their own homes… ensuring they would “not be allowed, well, anywhere.” (And that’s in Utah… one of the most conservative states in America.)
Interestingly, of the 70% who agree it’s time to move on, 78% “report having gotten COVID and 65% of those who say they have not been infected.

The new math and the new english at work?
Bullfauci !
Careful everybody. By “time to learn to live with it” they mean accept masks on planes and airports, get your shots (probably annually), get tested for cruises and international travel, etc.
They do NOT mean go back to life as normal.
It is now part of the regular flu season.
Prez Hussein & VP Plugs masterfully handled that pandemic by not allowing official documenting of new cases in Jan of '10.
And magicaly the pandemic was over.
The Left used lessons of that pandemic to plan the current ruse of a emergency.
*See: H1N1 CDC for record of that period.

“They” do not mean a return to January 2020.
I do.
