New Californian Covid variant
Jan 18 2021 04:34AM more by sherkahn
Tags: Current Events

Well, it was bound to happen.

“As the total number of coronavirus infections in California approaches 3 million, health officials said Sunday that a new strain — different from a highly contagious variant first identified in the United Kingdom — is popping up more frequently across the state.

Researchers have identified the strain in a dozen counties and have linked it to several large outbreaks in Santa Clara County. The California Department of Public Health said it’s not yet clear whether the variant is highly contagious or is just being identified frequently as lab work becomes more sophisticated.“

And just a reminder:

February 26:

“This is a flu. This is like a flu,” the president said in a briefing. “It’s a little like a regular flu that we have flu shots for. And we’ll essentially have a flu shot for this in a fairly quick manner.”
Fucking idiot.

It may be that covid 19 in some form will be with us for quite a long time. So far experts believe the current vaccines will work on new variants. It makes it more important than ever that people get vaccinated even if you are skeptical.

“This is a flu. This is like a flu,” the president said in a briefing. “It’s a little like a regular flu that we have flu shots for. And we’ll essentially have a flu shot for this in a fairly quick manner.”
Fucking idiot.

Remember what Faucci our premier expert said in late January.....

On Jan. 26, Fauci gave an interview to John Catsimatidis, a syndicated radio host in New York. "What can you tell the American people about what’s been going on?" Catsimatidis asked. "Should they be scared?"

"I don’t think so," Fauci said. "The American people should not be worried or frightened by this. It’s a very, very low risk to the United States, but it’s something we, as public health officials, need to take very seriously."

So call Trump an idiot, but his leading expert then deserves to be called a fucking idiot as well.

Hind sight is 20/20. I wonder what any of you would have done...and damn, I wonder what sleepy Joe would have done.....NOTHING.....

China response to disaster is not the same as method of government.
But, as usual, stupid is as stupid does.
Probably why Trump was able to play so many of you for chumps.

That's conveniently HALF the story, jazz. Fauci also twice described the virus as “an evolving situation,” and said, “Every day, we have to look at it very carefully.” In other word, THE CURRENT SITUATION COULD CHANGE. And it did.

Trump didn't say that. That's why what Trump said is very different.

^At the time Fauci said what he said, Covid was centered in China and the U.S. could screen travelers from that nation.

Pelosi Statement on President Trump’s Expanded Travel Ban
January 31, 2020
Press Release

Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi released this statement after the Trump Administration announced it is adding Myanmar, Eritrea, Kyrgyzstan, Nigeria, Tanzania and Sudan to the travel ban that the President instituted three years ago:

“The Trump Administration’s expansion of its outrageous, un-American travel ban threatens our security, our values and the rule of law. The sweeping rule, barring more than 350 million individuals from predominantly African nations from traveling to the United States, is discrimination disguised as policy.

“America’s strength has always been as a beacon of hope and opportunity for people around the world, whose dreams and aspirations have enriched our nation and made America more American. With this latest callous decision, the President has doubled down on his cruelty and further undermined our global leadership, our Constitution and our proud heritage as a nation of immigrants.

“In the Congress and in the Courts, House Democrats will continue to oppose the Administration’s dangerous anti-immigrant agenda. In the coming weeks, the House Judiciary Committee will mark-up and bring to the Floor the NO BAN Act to prohibit religious discrimination in our immigration system and limit the President’s ability to impose such biased and bigoted restrictions. We will never allow hatred or bigotry to define our nation or destroy our values.”

Wow... more bad hews. I remember you experts telling everyone the flu kills more people every flu season. Not that you even had a clue what that number was 34,200 deaths between 2018-2019. We'll be crossing 400,00 dead soon.

I said tobacco kills 480,000 every year in the USA.

Every year. Nobody gives a shit about those deaths. Seems those folks had a choice?
So what if over 40,000 died of second hand smoke.
Over four million in the last ten years.

I blame Biden.

Soon I get to blame biden for everything ..

"kills 480,000 every year in the USA."
People choose to smoke or live with a smoker.
And you can walk away from smokers.
Covid19 is not so obvious.
And all it takes a few moments of contact with covid19.
Smokers, it takes years to kill you.

Oh yeah
I'll just leave this here for someone to stumble over

Diabetes was the seventh leading cause of death in the United States in 2017 based on the 83,564 death certificates in which diabetes was listed as the underlying cause of death. In 2017, diabetes was mentioned as a cause of death in a total of 270,702 certificates.

Diabetes may be underreported as a cause of death. Studies have found that only about 35% to 40% of people with diabetes who died had diabetes listed anywhere on the death certificate and about 10% to 15% had it listed as the underlying cause of death.

Hmmm, 2.5 to 3 times 270,000 = 700,000 deaths per year from a mostly treatable illness caused mostly by poor nutrition. The number could be well over 1 million per year but no doubt NR will think of a way to spin it, lol

Not to minimize Covid with you dumb bitches but seriously?
The working poor minority you haven't killed yet just lost any job or hope for the future.
Thanks bitches

I bought a neck tie from the Donald J. Trump Collection, made in China. Bought a friend some Ivanka Trump heels, made in China
So tell me more about "America First." I stopped at the Trump souvenir stand of which there were many in Simi Valley, at Recall Newsome rallies, all of the flags, including Trumps head on Rambos body were made in China. And saw a shit ton of Toyotas, you know the Japanese company that makes trucks in Mexico, all with American flags plastered to them. I actually have to buy American as a condition of my contracts. It is damn hard to find domestic merch...but can be done. Most want to buy a US brand, thinking they are buying American, but they want that cheap Walmart price...so Carhartt makes foreign shit, Justin boots unless you go for the $253 model and not the ones for 80 bucks. So if you put your money where your mouth is and buy American, thank you- if you buy Chinese shit and scream buy America, fuck you.

Preliminary CDC estimates for the 2019-2020 influenza season indicate that, as of April 4, 2020, between 24,000 and 62,000 lost their lives to the flu.

Reported SARS-CoV-2 related deaths to date are now north of 399K, which is about 6-16x more deadlier than the flu 2019-2020.

Rex W. Tillerson's description of our 45th POTUS is a "fucking moron".
