New COVID-19 variants that emerge could cause more serious illness and fatalities than previous strains, some scientists warn.

Just because several free ranging vials of a eradicated virus happened to show up in non secured environment two weeks after Gates threatened the world with its release doesnt mean that that the government is out to get us.

That would be crazy conspiracy talk.

There will be a variant every 2 years for Presidential/MidTerm elections in order to justify perpetual cheat-by-mail-in ballots.

Eventually we will get a variant which just causes you to explode when infected (h/t Eddie Murphy “Raw”, on AIDS).

I think they know full well that Cooties 2:Electric Boogaloo isnt going to have any significant ROI.

Hey, did you happen to notice that organizations are suddenly putting and effort into Marburg vaccines even though there is no money to be made in it?

Im not suggesting anything, that would be a crazy conspiracy theory.

Sounds like some folks don’t want to turn the gravy train off just yet.

For all the experts and their years of expertise, they don’t seem to have a lot of data to point to, and a whole lot of “trust me, I’m an expert.” That they’re leaning on hard.

It could also be observed that the presence of experts in important high-paid positions was not an effective means of saving lives over the past two years. They certainly had an effect, but did they do anything they were put in their positions to actually do?

This was put out there to give the medical establishment cover and a reason to announce that all the restrictions are back, and we have to slap the face diapers on our muzzles.

I can feel the fear they have at having to let go. They had a good thing. It enabled them to get rid of Trump, install an incompetent old codger and a knee pad babe, and to train the public to be submissive sheep. They are willing to lie again about the next “variant” in order to get their power back.

They lied big time about “little O”, and never told us that it isn’t deadly. They will lie about the next one too.

How many think it will be all over permanently by the end of 2022?

I have over 75 hours in microbiology alone from undergraduate and graduate studies. There is always a chance of a viral, fungal or bacteriological variant exploding into the population and killing many. The variant most likely will come from animals. The MSM is using this fact to scare up the ignorant and gullible. I knew years ago that a respiratory virus would be the next plague but I also thought that Parvovirus would mutate and cause problems before there was a respiratory viral epidemic. Parvo is due a mutation that will jump species...it has regularly for the last one hundred years.

As if it there was any truth left in the medical industry.

Coronaviruses have been around for thousands of years and will continue for thousands more. None of it matters since we took the two weeks to flatten the curve back in the spring of 2020.

........ The Hemorrhagic COVID Variant should be quite interesting ... They don’t know if they should label it as just another exciting COVID variant or go for a whole new Extinction Level Disease label yet ....

Don’t know about ‘Kevins’. Up here, in PRC (Politically Repressive Canada), I call them ‘Justins’.
