The rollout of this NeW vArIaNt!!!! feels completely stiff and scripted. It feels like a completely poorly written screenplay. I practically expect them to try to rebrand it Covid-21 at any moment now.

When Fauci was asked how he interpreted his role in guiding the U.S. through the coronavirus crisis, the 79-year-old reflected on 36 years as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
“We’ve been through a lot of things through that institute,” he said, citing its response to HIV, the 2001 anthrax attacks, Ebola, Zika virus, and pandemic flu, among others.
“I see my future as doing the same thing as we get our arms around this outbreak. We essentially put it to rest but, as David said, putting it to rest doesn’t mean eradicating it,” Fauci said, referring to Heymann’s comments.
“I doubt we are going to eradicate this. I think we need to plan that this is something we may need to maintain control over chronically. It may be something that becomes endemic, that we have to just be careful about,” he continued.
“Certainly, it is not going to be a pandemic for a lot longer because I believe the vaccines are going to turn that around.” [Reply]
ANTHONY FAUCI: Well when you look at any kind of an outbreak, as I've said multiple times but I'll very briefly repeat it, you know, there's the pandemic phase, the deceleration phase, control, elimination, and eradication. I don't think we're going to get eradication. We've only done that with smallpox. We've eliminated diseases by vaccination like polio in the United States, as it exists other places. We've eliminated measles in the United States. It exists other places. We've eliminated malaria years and years ago, but it exists in other places.
So I don't think we're going to eliminate it completely. [Reply]

You pretty much confirmed what I said.....thanks [Reply]
And it's a good thing we skipped over Xi. Would hate to have had the newly appointed God Emperor of the country where this shit originated having the world make fun of him or anything. Sage call by the world powers that be. [Reply]
"Data from the study of SARS-CoV and other respiratory viruses suggest that anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies could exacerbate COVID-19 through antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE). Previous respiratory syncytial virus and dengue virus vaccine studies revealed human clinical safety risks related to ADE, resulting in failed vaccine trials. " [Reply]
Boy, that's a whole lot of crazy. No wonder you like it.
Anyway:
The vaccines for COVID-19 are not sterilizing and do not prevent infection or transmission. They are “leaky” vaccines. This means they remove the evolutionary pressure on the virus to become less lethal. [Reply]

Even blind squirrels find a nut here and there.
Donger is much closer to being right on this than any of the covidspiracy types in this thread. [Reply]
As to the "leaky" vaccines, sterilizing immunity doesn't exist with any vaccine.
If you say so. I don't hardly consider you a good faith poster to begin with, so no skin off my back. I wish you the best with your vaccine oddysee. [Reply]

Of course not. I'm part of the "Elite cabal."
Thanks for the vaccine luck, though, although I fail to see why I need any. [Reply]

Hey elitist - get off your nuts and get the goddamned gas prices down. How about we stop with the stupid lockdowns and free Australia while we're at it? TIA [Reply]
