"The Pandemic is Over"

My across the street neighbor is home sick with Covid presently. She sounded horrible from across the street but she is a smoker and never sounds good.

 

It's also important to note that WHO's definition of a pandemic doesn't consider the severity or danger of the disease, just its spread.

Between Omicron being less severe and vaccines being very effective at preventing severe illness, the disease may still be a "pandemic," but we're no longer in "The Pandemic"--i.e., a major public health crisis.

 

Interesting read for sure.

 

What has me befuddled is this metaphysical contention that the [object in the womb] is not living and becomes living, presumably when it crosses some shadowy demarcation point. Maybe there’s a star gate in the womb ?

 

How it should have gone down in March 2020 ...

Dr. Birx: “We need to lock down to get a handle on this menace.”

Trump: “This talk about locking down IS OVER.”

 

Or how about this?

Trump: "Couldn't we try using bleach?"

Dr. Birx: "You are so full of shit."

 

Arguably, bleach would have killed fewer than what we did.

 

You mean fewer than what Trump did?

 

You mean by his vaccine ?

 

"His" vaccine has saved lives despite himself. He caused thousands more lives to be lost.

 

You’re arguing with a person who doesn’t live in the real world.

 

In the absence of a rogue nanoparticle (there is no such thing) how were people killed by other than the effects of panic, despair and an injection with a nasty side effects profile ?

 

I know. I just keep getting forgetful in my old age.

 

I don’t believe gods are angry killed millions of people since 2020.

 

It could be Trump’s vaccine.

 

See post #91.

 

I don’t believe in rogue nanoparticles.

 

Even people who believe in rogue nanoparticles will tell you that the Spanish Flu basically lasted 18 months. In the 2020’s we decided we wanted a Forever Pandemic.

 

I'm not sure if Facuci and the WHO disagree or whether this could be a relevant distinction. Fauci said back in April that America was out of the pandemic phase but that globally, it was still in the pandemic phase.

Dr. Fauci on why the U.S. is ‘out of the pandemic phase’

That might be every year, that might be longer, in order to keep that level low. But, right now, we are not in the pandemic phase in this country. Pandemic means a widespread, throughout the world, infection that spreads rapidly among people.

So, if you look at the global situation, there's no doubt this pandemic is still ongoing.
