I said that here. I mentioned this in the triggered Podcast. I want a COVID relief account. I want relief checks for working families. In fact, I want huge checks for these families, as Democrats torpedoed several efforts to close a deal last year. Liberals wanted to increase their chances of winning the elections. This is the Democratic Party. Fucking working families for political gain. With the election over, Democrats can now do something for America’s working class, so they drafted this $ 1.9 trillion bill …it doesn’t do any of that. I know, what did you expect, right? It is a bill of more than $ 1 trillion. What could go wrong? With the Democrats running the show, that’s all. With the GOP, there would be problems as well. That’s why everyone hates this city. However, there is that urgency now. The New York Post’s editorial board asks why now? Perhaps a few months ago, it was urgent, but Trump was the president. Going through something that could help Americans was simply not an option for the left, as crazy as it may seem. Frankly, with the latest data from COVID, getting people back to normal may be the best aid package that could happen if Democrats just listened to science.
Dr. Marty Makary, an epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins, decided to do something that Dr. Anthony Fauci refused to do, which is to take a stand based on current scientific data, not political winds. Makary was straightforward: we will have collective immunity by the end of April. The vaccination rate tends to reach 100 million people. The Johnson & Johnson vaccine will add a third option to complement the supply. And all this thanks to the Trump administration. Based on current figures, Makary said that with an infection mortality rate of 0.23% and 1 in 600 Americans dying from the virus, two-thirds of the country have already contracted the disease. We are underestimating natural immunity. There is another part as well, which is that we have seen a drop in COVID cases in the past six weeks. How big is a drop? Oh, it’s about 77 percent. Even in nations with these new strains, deaths and cases are decreasing. Why is this news being buried? Makary said the scientists he spoke with agreed with this projection, at least not by saying it was bizarre, but noting that they did not want to be overly aggressive in sharing the good news because it could affect vaccination rates.
“Some medical experts agreed in particular with my prediction that there may be very little Covid-19 in April, but suggested that I not speak publicly about herd immunity because people can become complacent and fail to take precautions or refuse the vaccine.” , he wrote in an opinion article for Wall Street Newspaper. “But scientists shouldn’t try to manipulate the public by hiding the truth.”
We can see why Biden continues to accumulate doom and gloom. That’s how he has a reason to spend his $ 1.9 trillion boondoggle that doesn’t help anyone impacted by COVID, except federal workers. Time is running out to approve this liberal pork project, which includes, of all things, a great expense to preserve the … Native American language. The NY Post editorial board presented the good news and the terrible cynical maneuvers of this administration (via the NY Post):
… President Biden, after promising that the nation will have enough vaccine doses by the end of July to vaccinate all Americans, just said that he expects a return to normal by “next Christmas”. Huh?
“I don’t want to promise anything here,” “A year from now,” he told CNN, “I think there will be a lot less people having to be socially distant, having to wear a mask.” This does not avoid exaggerated promises, as he said: it is telling everyone to expect another year of economic and social devastation.
Biden’s chief medical advisor, Anthony Fauci, says the worst of the pandemic “may be over”. However, he is also telling Americans that they will need to wear masks (perhaps two at a time) by at least 2022 – even if they are vaccinated.
This is absurd: our leaders should be relentlessly putting pressure on reluctant Americans to be beaten so that we can all move on with our lives.

Hospitalizations and deaths continue to fall, even with variants gaining ground: deaths have fallen by 20% in the past two weeks. The UK variant predominates in Britain, Switzerland, Denmark and Israel – and everyone is also seeing cases plummet.
[…]
… Although America’s vaccination process has proceeded more slowly than it should, it is still advancing inexorably.
More than 13 percent of Americans received at least one dose, and the majority are health care workers or in nursing homes or other high-risk environments.
Add to that the estimated number of people already infected – 35 percent of Los Angeles County and more than half of Miami-Dade County, for example – and you can see why Johns Hopkins professor Marty Makary predicts that we will have collective immunity in April.
And Americans at greater risk have gained immunity. Data scientist Youyang Gu estimates that the number of “susceptible” Americans, those over 45 without immunity, has dropped from a third of the country at the beginning of the year to 10% or less now.
Cases in nursing homes fell by more than 80% from late December to early February. When deaths increased during the holidays, they actually fell in nursing homes.
[…]
Perhaps it is just because normality makes it very difficult to justify the rush to pass a $ 1.9 trillion “relief” bill full of Democrats’ favorite projects. We prefer not to think that cynical politics is behind Biden’s sadness, but it is difficult to see any other reason for him to deny that the end of the pandemic is facing us.
The end is near. The blockade era of the Democrats’ COVID is entering its final stages. This takeover of power that they did to take a ride is being recovered – and they know it. The notion that you can still spread the virus even after being vaccinated was the first sign that these people have no idea what they are doing. This is not how vaccines work. You don’t have to be a doctor to know this. Even after contracting COVID, the virus dies after ten days, but is at levels that cannot make you or others sick. Hence, why can you slowly start to resume your normal routine, albeit slowly if you are ready for it. the point is that you can venture out there at this post-infection point. How is it different from something that is created through reverse genetics to give immunity to human beings? It was as stupid as double masking for which there is no real data to show that it works. And to the credit of the CDC, they noted that the study supposedly showing effectiveness was done with mannequins and has no applicability in the real world.
The circus is without performances. It’s time to reopen. It’s past time. It’s too late.
