COVID-19 Is No Longer a Public Health Emergency
TIME ^ | 1-25-23 | Daniel Halperin

Posted on 01/26/2023 8:22:15 AM PST by Paul46360

A month before his recent retirement, Dr. Anthony Fauci cautioned that the U.S. “certainly” remains in the midst of a COVID pandemic. Other experts repeatedly warn of impending “deadly” waves caused by the latest genetic variants, and recently President Biden once again extended the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency. Yet those dire warnings hinge largely on an assumption that some 400 people in the U.S. continue dying daily from the disease. There are important reasons to question this assertion, as Dr. Leana Wen explored in the Washington Post. And if therefore in fact we’re no longer in a public health emergency (which a renowned virologist in Germany concluded last month), then some growing calls for reinstating school mask mandates or other inappropriate restrictions should be dropped.

Well, it would appear that Pfizer is intent on making it one. Forever.

None of the info on Covid, or the “vaccines” has been accurate from the beginning. It has all been distorted by the media for sensationalism and to fit a narrative.

Covid 19 never would have been a public emergency unless Fauci was paid to make it so. Anyone in good health under 50 years of age should never be given the shots.

Yet I STILL see loons driving along in their cars wearing masks on a daily basis.

Thank you for referencing that article Paul46360.

"COVID-19 Is No Longer a Public Health Emergency"


From related thread...

Emphasizing that I am not medically trained, please consider the following.

First, note that Professor Sucharit Bhakti had indicated that the CV19 pandemic was basically over in July of 2021 imo.

Next, artificial lighting urbanites in northern hemisphere should consider including vitamin D3 supplements in their healthy diets to strengthen their immune system at least through February in my non-medical opinion.

Finally, I still question if medical history might have turned out happier if vitamin D3 had been discovered before vaccines and "follow the unconstitutional federal money taxpayer dollars" experimental CV19 jabs were.

I am not even sure long covid is real. I joined a Reddit group for covid just out of curiosity. They are crazy there. I have read posts that they still want people to wear n95s forever. One person moved her family to a remote spot to avoid covid. . They are angry at the rest of the world for refusing to wear masks. These are the same people who complain they have long covid, which I am starting to think is more of a psychological problem.

Fauci, by his very, very ill-conceived decision to fund what was most-certainly gain-of-function research, created the pandemic.

The exposure to/infection with a Coronavirus subtype that humans had never been infected with before was the result of giving a virus that couldn't infect human cells the capacity to do so (by changing the fiber protein such that it could bind the relatively ubiquitous human ACE receptor) is what led to the severe infections and deaths. He's partially responsible.

Now that many have seen the virus, and that it has mutated, it is back to being a Coronavirus like others that have been responsible for ~20% of annual ‘colds’.

As with fictional “existential climate change”, there is big money and even bigger centralized control in the perpetual “Fauci Flu-type pandemics” business.

As is evident by the comments from the Pfizer guy.

And with a 5cent pill it’s all history.

Of course. MonkeyPox scared no one.

And Pfizer is working on new strains of covid that will allow them to make vaccines and boosters forever.

The former Milwaukee County chief medical examiner conducted a careful review of some 4,000 COVID-19 deaths reported during the pandemic there. His research revealed that nearly half had no link to COVID or in some cases only a “marginal” association, such as end stage cancer patients whose demise was possibly hastened by a few days or weeks, from catching the disease. An analysis of LA County and national data collected during the more recent waves of the highly contagious (but considerably less deadly) Omicron variants suggests that COVID-19 deaths are now likely being overcounted by at least fourfold. A newly published investigation from Denmark documented that, following the emergence of Omicron a year ago, an astonishing 65-75% of deaths officially attributed to COVID-19 have been merely incidental to the coronavirus, consistent with the above hypothetical exercise. Yet even if only half the currently reported deaths in the U.S. are not really caused by the virus, that would mean an actual daily COVID-19 toll of around 200, roughly the number dying during a bad flu season.
