The question is now: What happens this fall and winter, when children are at school and Americans once again travel for the holidays? In spite of desperate warnings from the CDC that people stay home for last year’s holiday, they largely did not, which led to the third spike in cases, which reached heights that dwarfed the first two. That doesn’t bode well for Christmas 2021, especially given that, in this current, fourth wave, seven states have already surpassed their previous peaks in cases (with another four doing nearly as poorly).

This is panic porn combined with speculation. No science or data to suggest this will happen. It's media rumination intended to keep you paying attention. Which is another way of saying complete crap.

Remember last year when none of the politicians of either party paid any attention to Fauci/CDC and still went on vacation for the holidays? Remember when the Denver mayor last fall told his citizens not to travel while sitting at the airport waiting to travel?

Yeah, its Americans fault! What a freaking joke! Thats right, the rules are not for the sophisticated elite class. Just for the little guy.

All about keeping the fear and control. The media pushes all this stuff like flattening the curve nonsense and travel restrictions within your own country.

It's not about "fear and control," or "pandemic porn," or "he's a hypocrite," it's about 1,000+ Americans dying every day.

Lord love a duck.

It’s a 98% survival rate virus.

I’ll be fearful when we have to wear hazmat suits to go outside.

The graphs on https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ tell the story.

More active Covid cases reported in the U.S. today than back in January. The line remains in an upward trend, however this could well be due to increased awareness, and testing.

Deaths are also on the uptick. According to the seven-day moving averages, we are about where we were in April, 2020, and November 2020. However, it may be leveling off.

Perhaps the pool of unvaccinated individuals, who are statistically far more likely to experience significant symptoms, is shrinking.

Phil Valentine, longtime Tennessee conservative talk radio host, insisted he was just using common sense in not getting vaccinated as the odds of him dying from Covid was, “probably way less than one percent."

Looks like he odds were not in his favor, as last month he died from Covid after a stint in the ICU.

People need to learn to think for themselves instead of believing everything they are told or hear . As for that radio host dying do you know in fact that he died of covid ? not unless you knew him personally . He might have died that quickly from an anuerism . People die from something everyday and Im sick of these nimwits not using common sense and they want to live in fear . I for one will not live in fear and can think for myself , i dont need big brother government telling me how to live. Im sorry that some of you think that the government does not lie or have an agenda .
