Awww the Masks “Literally” saved everyone 🥴

That's not what I said, they as well as the other mitigation efforts helped stop the spread of that years seasonal flu.

KangAnon wrote on Feb 14^th, 2025 at 11:39am:

You literally just posted the stats to prove how effective the mitigation efforts were, which included masks, washing hands and social distancing.

It worked.

Just because you don't like that conclusion you're inventing a conspiracy, or latching onto one at least, I don't credit you with the smarts to invent it, that twists the data to fit what you already believe.

If you have to lie about what I've said to have any hope of countering it, there is no more admission of failure than that...

Tear it down, sure, but the people who will be rebuilding it are the ones who shaped it into this mess in the first place.

You get that right?

This is the party that fought every possible action that would help to improve the system, without a trail of dead Americans that will be left in the wake of wrecking the whole thing first.

And you trust that now, with no limits on their power, they'll do it better, do it differently this time?

Rachel Levine was at least a Doctor.

It seems like RFK Jr is a DEI hire, not selected for his merit but nepotism...

I thought you lot were against that?

RFK Jr. Sworn In On Raw 32-Ounce Ribeye

Historians say this is the first time a government official has been sworn in on a piece of meat since William Howard Taft swore his oath on a porterhouse steak slathered in gravy in 1909.

"It's time to make America healthy again, and it starts now," an emotional Kennedy said as his wife looked on in admiration.

"He always does this," said actress and fellow meat enthusiast Cheryl Hines. "He proposed with a prime rib."

Trump was reportedly impressed by Kennedy's resolve, but noted with disappointment that the steak was not well done with a side of ketchup.

Tsk, Tsk, Roll Eyes

Nobody's perfect, eh?

In case anyone's still interested, here's the latest Covid numbers from the United States:

https://x.com/BNOFeed/status/1891311988023689366

Quote:

Weekly U.S. COVID update:

- New cases: 168,329 est.
- Admissions: 11,783 (-4%)
- In hospital: 9,829 (-5%)
- In ICU: 1,366 (-11%)
- New deaths: 966
- Average: (+2%)

Another 966 deaths in one week.

https://x.com/BNOFeed/status/1891312043975684119

Quote:

More than 1.3 million COVID cases have been reported in the U.S. so far this year, causing 95,923 hospitalizations and 6,109 deaths.

6,109 Covid deaths in the US since the start of this year.

Pretty shocking for a virus that most people believe is now "mild" and "just a cold" and a pandemic that is supposed to be over.

And, with the Musk/Trump/RFK Jr. 'Unholy Trinity' running things I'm sure it's about to get a whole lot worse - especially when (not if) "bird flu" mutates into a direct human to human airborne variant and goes on a worldwide rampage.

Here's Tim's (the ex virologist) estimate of what could happen to Australia if/when that happens:

https://x.com/LettersfromTim/status/1890687771771047979

Quote:

One million+ Australians will die in an H5N1 pandemic if the PH approach by Govt is “you do you”

(PH is Public Health, by the way).

I wonder how many deaths will occur in the US? Could be tens of millions or more.

The only 'consolation' is that it will probably be most or all of the MAGA crowd that get 'taken out' (and it will hopefully include the "Unholy Trinity" I've mentioned above).

Doesn't look like it.

U.S. influenza cases reach 15-year high despite declining COVID-19, CDC says

Quote:

Feb. 8 (UPI) -- U.S. medical services providers are seeing the greatest numbers of flu cases since the 2009-2010 flu season, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Friday.

For the week ending on Feb. 1, 8% of all hospital emergency department visits were due to the flu, which is more than double the 3.2% posted at the same time a year ago, the CDC reported.

"Seasonal influenza activity remains elevated and continues to increase across the country" for the week ending Feb. 1, CDC officials said.

So far for the flu season, the CDC estimates at least 24 million have taken ill, resulting in 310,000 hospitalizations and 13,000 deaths from the flu.

Not a good time to be living in the United States at the moment... especially with the 'Unholy Trinity' running things and "bird flu" about to go on the rampage.

Quote:

it will probably

I would think the word would be possibly or unlikely.

The question though is that if breaking it does not result in some unimaginable gain for no discernable reason then how many people will die?

The illegitimate Trump regimes illegal actions has already killed people, how much worse will it be allowed to get.

This is the middle of their winter when the virus is at it quietest and most under control. This number looks ominous for their summer when the virus gets active.
