The Plain Fact that Fauci and the New York Times will never admit : COVID-19 is becoming milder, but the left stays toxic as ever
American Thinker ^ | 04/22/2022 | C.J. Baker

Just this morning (Tuesday, April 22, 2022), in the New York Times' "the Morning" online report, a guy named David Leonhardt writes with apparent amazement that "Coronavirus cases have risen in major cities. Hospitalizations have not." Imagine that.

Leonhardt goes on to note that despite the long list of members of Congress and other public servants recently diagnosed with COVID-19, none of them, even our superannuated speaker of the House, appears to have got very sick from it. To his credit, he supplements this observation with some charts that clearly show the disconnect between current cases (which are rising) and hospitalizations (which remain flat).

So far, so good. But then he gives his explanation for this trend. That's where the spin and outright dishonesty of the COVID-forever left — led by the Times — continue apace.

To what does David the Lionhearted, the Gray Lady's intrepid knight of the keyboard du jour, attribute these positive trends? He reports what (supposedly) "many experts believe":

Two key points should be drawn from this list of explanations.

First, an absolutely central reason for the good news about COVID-19 has been deliberately omitted. Second, several systematic lies are embedded in the three explanations that are given.

This has been the evolutionary cycle of viruses from time immemorial ( as long as new ones don’t get developed in the lab and gets released ):

Viruses consistently mutate to become more transmissible and less virulent. Why do they evolve in this way? For the same reason all organisms evolve: to benefit their own propagation and survival.

When a new virus is first introduced to a host species, the initial interaction is often not pretty. The virus may struggle to spread between individuals, endangering its survival, and it may invoke severe illness in its host, even killing it, thereby endangering both species’ survival.

Moving slowly and painstakingly from one home to another, while burning down the one in which you currently reside, is no way to survive. So the virus mutates and evolves into a milder form that spreads more readily yet sickens the host less.

In essence, the perfect respiratory virus is the common cold. It infects its host but makes the host sick enough only to sneeze the virus’s progeny at everyone around. It spreads like wildfire, but it doesn’t burn down its own house in the process.

Not for nothing, but what do the other coronaviruses in general circulation among humans cause? That’s right: symptoms of the common cold. This is almost certainly the final common pathway for SARS-CoV-2.

No one is doing good for our Conservative cause to spread around the fake “news” of Fauci and Hillary, etc being sentenced to hang. It makes conservatives look like idiots.

Each year many of us receive a flu shot. Sometime we get flu anyway, but always a mild form.

In its current form, isn’t Covid a lesser threat than flu?? The mortality rate of covid is very low. How does it compare with the mortality rate of flu??

I had a ‘flu once that nearly killed me. I still have issues related to it.

Nobody in my family has had Covid, before or after the vaccination.

“...No one is doing good for our Conservative cause to spread around the fake “news”...”

I agree! A few of the commentaries on FR are so nonsensical that I have wondered whether or not there are some liberals masquerading on FR trying to give it a bad reputation. Have any others noticed??

Why do we need liberals, when some of the good conservatives here have been foolish enough to fall for the Q-Anon hoax?

” (Unfortunately this information may be needed by some.)”

You are right. It is all false sensational headlines.

I have A friend that insists that Hillary has already been tried and hung. Though I would not Be opposed to that happening, the fact is that this is just not true and no matter how many times I show the evidence she refuses to see it.
