Trump lies every time he talks.

Democrats spin.

What's Xi thinking ?

We had dinner the other night with a guy who works in the ICU, very interesting to talk to him.

Basically - 2020 was very scary, people were coming in with no real way to treat them. People came in and ended up on ventilators all the time for the flu and usually they pulled through, but with COVID, pretty much anyone who ended up on a ventilator was a 100% mortality rate.

I asked him how many cases like that he sees now - he said zero. There are people in the ICU who have COVID, but it's coincidental to their primary symptom, unlike in 2020 where COVID was primary. He said that most people would think this is because we've all had it or been vaccinates - which is a contributor for sure - but mostly the virus has mutated to less deadly strains. Less deadly strains transmit better because they don't kill the host and have more time to spread, which does produce that aforementioned immune response.

I caught a lot of shit here for saying this about omicron. Robb accused me of spreading disinformation and said I was exposing myself to litigation.

So we could've done about our business, culled the elderly and immunodeficient populations, and waited 5 years?

Probably would have been a good idea, because that would have also culled a lot more drunk drivers, thrill seekers, and other people needing ER services for non-covid reasons.

We got all our shots; never had a bad reaction. A friend told me we might be in the control group getting the placebo.

We never caught covid, rarely catch a cold or flu. We  eat fresh fruit every day, usually an orange.

You killed Robb. As a poster.

Strawman alert! No one was suggesting that.

Wouldn't doing minimal remedial efforts, as you suggested, have allowed the most dangerous strain an easier ability to spread, thus slowing down the mutation time to a less dangerous strain? I am not an expert, and I slept at home last night, but wouldn't that be the impact of no or minimal remediation efforts?
