Some people are dead serious: over 150,000 of them.

That is total nonsense of course.

Of all the sexual encounters I've had with demons I've never developed a cyst. Not one.

Liars.

Precisely correct.

These people have a compulsion to lie for this president. We aren't buying it.

Brits might say "this 'plandemic' was started the make Boris Johnson look bad" ... well he doesn't look so bad after all, so no one is making lame excuses for him.

Trump was on the spot, it was his turn at bat, he failed. Trump only looks bad because he is terribly incompetent and self serving, not because any one nation or person planned an epidemic.

I married a demon once ... long story.

No.

I could say more, but what would be the point?
It's easier than coming to grips with the realization that the TV personality you voted for as president is an imbecile

Trump slowed travel from China early on and he was called a racist for it yet he saved lives.



The virus is still playing out. There has been mistakes and missteps over the past several months including from the experts at the CDC the WHO and if Fauci ever wanted to change careers he would make a terrific weatherman but who gets ALL the BLAME? Trump. Who is blaming him? The Democrats and their media.

Never let a good crisis go to waste.
You didn't know that it affects Democrats also?

Simple shifting of the blame to Covid when it could have and likely was other illnesses.

Besides, THE FACTS are that currently death's are 6% of all cases and as soon as the other 6 MILLION cases that are likely to result in no ill effects are counted, it will drop down to 1%... and that does not even count the facts and scientific studies that state that the number of covid infections are 80 times more than currently counted.

Facts prior to 2020 were that cloth masks were not effective. Yet, we are forced to wear them. Even though they have not stopped infections.

Study after study comes out saying vitamin D sufficiency stops serious cases but no one ever mentions it and people stubbornly refuse to take vitamin D but expect me to quarantine.

It is JUST insane.

Cloth masks are not effective at filtering out viral particles from entering the wearers mouth (whereas N95 are somewhat effective at that).

However cloth masks are likely somewhat effective in reducing distance of projection of viral particles outward into the wearers environment. Since many people are asymptomatic, at least wearing a cloth mask could likely reduce transmission in that way. And since we don't know who is an asymptomatic carrier of the virus, that is the rational for at least requiring a cloth mask since N95 is not available for everyone yet.
