The Credentialed Media is always going to be about doom, about scaring people, but, now you combine that with politics in order to make everyone controlled by the government. An they just can’t give that up even as more and more are vaccinated
Michigan’s Covid-19 crisis could be a sign of what’s to come for the US, expert says
As the US races to vaccinate more Americans, Covid-19 cases and hospitalizations are rising, predominantly among younger people who haven’t yet gotten a shot.
Some experts worry this might only be the start of what’s to come in the next weeks. Michigan is already in the middle of a violent surge, and one epidemiologist says other states should be paying close attention.
“Michigan is really the bellwether for what it looks like when the B.1.1.7 variant … spreads in the United States,” Dr. Celine Gounder told CNN on Sunday. “It’s causing a surge in cases and it’s causing more severe disease, which means that even younger people, people in their 30s, 40s and 50s are getting very sick and being hospitalized from this.”
The B.1.1.7 variant, first spotted in the UK, is now the dominant strain of the virus in the US. Experts say it’s more contagious, may cause more severe disease and may potentially be more deadly. And it’s rapidly spreading across the country.
Florida has the highest number of cases of the variant, followed by Michigan, Minnesota and Massachusetts, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Michigan had one of the strictest lockdown protocols of the entire nation, and was almost as bad as some European nations for governmental authority. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer was drunk on power. Florida didn’t. Yet, they are both seeing spikes, and you have a heck of a lot more people going to Florida for vacations than Michigan.
“So there is no way that a surge in vaccination is going to help curb this when transmission is happening right now,” she said. “The hard truth is that the only thing that will curb transmission right now are measures that take effect immediately.” For example, masking up, not dining indoors, and socializing outdoors, she added.
Funny that COVID surged after 37 states implemented mask mandates worse than during the late winter into Spring, eh? And many governors are fear mongering, which may not actually be fear mongering, but, at this point, after all the Fear Porn and wielding of Authority by so many, people just don’t believe it anymore.
And what to do about vaccine hesitancy?
“The last 20 to 30% are going to be the hardest because a lot of folks in this country are still hesitant to get the vaccine. We’re seeing it all over the country,” Reiner said. “We need to really get down on the grassroots level, talk to people about their hesitancy and get shots into arms.”
“Because if we don’t vaccinate that last 30% or so, we’re still going to have to live with this virus for a very long time.”
And that will be the Excuse for keeping all the fear and authoritarian measures going for the long term. Pick your own excuse for not getting the shot, there are more than plenty on both sides of the political aisle who do not want it. Will they be forced?

Can’t you remember one year ago ?
The msm was a hell of a lot more accurate than your ecDear Lrsfrt who was telling us (and being believed by you) that the virus was going to magically disappear in April when the weather got warmer and that the total deaths would be 60000,maybe 65000
How did that work out for you ?
Sorry, John,-you really are stupid. You’ve been shown the article refuting that BS story several days ago. Trump never said it would be gone April, he said it possibly could be contained, and that information came not from Trump but from the DHS. Why even post at all if have to lie?
John,
Could you please take time from your busy day and before you get excessively high to tell us why you consistently make very stupid comments and why you denigrate Trump, one of our best leaders in our history.

It’s an amazing thing — by the way, open your schools!”
Jeff,
Never would have thought but you now like Trump. It is obvious he gave us the information necessary for this minor virus. I remember just a few months ago you were clearly hysterical about it.
d avis,
He is responsible for over 500,000 dead Americans, a recession and a yuuuuge increase in the federal debt.
And he’s a cruel sociopath.
Jeff,
Tell us how he is responsible for deaths from a virus.
As usual the Red commenter is interested only in propaganda not Truth. He’s been spouting that foolish nonsense for a year now like a president is responsible for an illness, any illness. The stupidity of the left and followers like the Red commenter is infinite.
I’d rather know why he hates Whites.
Or why he hate Christians
Or why he hates America
But I’d really like to know what he’s hiding.
Meanwhile, fools like the Red commenter ignore the real crimes:
“As if the Left’s willful avoidance of Cuomo’s nursing home death count wasn’t enough evidence, the open border proves for all time that the Left never cared about Covid or the associated deaths. They just wanted more political power. If they cared about Covid half as much as they pretended to, they’d be losing their minds over Covid people entering the country, not being vaccinated, living in close quarters and being spread throughout the country.”
Donald Trump is a cruel sociopath for living rent-free inside Mr Dowd’s head.
Jan.22. 2020-The WHO changes its mind and announces covid can be transmitted person to person
Jan.23-Trump’s CDC sought a special emergency authorization from the FDA to allow states to use the new coronavirus test.
Jan. 27-the CDC issues a level 3 health notice urging Americans to avoid travel to China
Jan. 29-the White House announces the formation of a coronavirus Task Force.
Jan.29-first coronavirus case reported in the US.
Jan.30-Biden public health advisory committee member Dr. Zeke Emanuel says “everyone in America should slow down and stop panicking and being hysterical. The best thing we have is seasonality-it will go down as spring comes up.â€
Jan.31-despite that there were only 7 reported cases in the US, the Trump admin. declared the coronavirus a “public health emergency.â€
Jan.31-speaking at a townhall right after Trump announced restrictions on travel to China, Biden accused Trump of not acting rationally, and said “this is no time for Trump’s record of hysteria and xenophobia-hysterical xenophobia and fearmongering to lead the way instead of scienceâ€.
Feb.4 -Trump in his State of the Union Address vowed “to take all necessary steps†to protect Americans from the virus. (Later in the speech Nancy Pelosi ripped up her copy)
Feb.5-Trump acquitted
Feb.6- Biden public health advisory committee member Dr. Irwin Redlener said “there is uncertainty, and the headlines dramatic, but right now the chances of any of us ever getting a severe, lethal form of the Wuhan virus is negligible.â€
Feb.7-Biden public health advisory committee member Lisa Monaco wrote “the good news thus far is that the coronavirus appears to be las lethal than its viral cousin SARS was in 2002 and far less lethal than Ebola was in 2014â€.
Feb.11-Biden advisor (now WH Chief of Staff) says “the coronavirus may be a serious epidemic, but the evidence suggests it’s probably not thatâ€.
Feb.13-Top Biden advisor said “we don’t have a covid-19 epidemic in the US, but we are starting to see a fear epidemic. Kudos to Mayor Bill deBlasio and others for encouraging people to go shopping or out to eat inChinatownâ€.
jil claimed the former guy didn’t say it would be gone by April. A distinction without a difference.
Feb. 10 2020: “Now, the virus that we’re talking about having to do — you know, a lot of people think that goes away in April with the heat — as the heat comes in. Typically, that will go away in April.â€
Feb 27 2020: “It’s going to disappear. One day — it’s like a miracle — it will disappearâ€

Mar 31 2020: “It’s going to go away, hopefully at the end of the month. And, if not, hopefully it will be soon after that.â€
We sympathize with the difficult position he was in. His supporters hate science, government and restrictions, so he was hoping that the pandemic would magically disappear, there would be no recession and he would ride to victory.
You need to explain why you’re still talking (complaining) about Trump when he’s in exile and the senile fukwit and commie sympathizer Xiden is installed with his military Junta still occupying DC.
Everything this moron has touched has turned to shit from the murdered and raped children in his cages at the border to Iran fixin to war with Israel to massive amounts of wasteful spending to pay back the criminals that stole the election for him to rising prices all over the nation. We are fuked and chairman xiden is the reason why.
So stop complaining about Trump, he’s gone and start explaining why:
You hate Whites
You hate Christians
You hate Israel
You hate America
WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF YOU RED DEVIL?
You have gone ’round the bend. Pity.
And you won’t answer four simple questions proving you’re afraid. Like a little girl. Pity.
Sept. 2020-Dr. Fauci said on Fox News that “Trump’s public statements on the virus were no different than the sentiments expressed during White House coronavirus task force meetings.†Sorry, J your narrative still goes down if flames; All that was said were repeats from the “expertsâ€. And you’re dense enough to put up quotes from the Trump team when people from the Biden people were saying basically the same thing, but earlier. Thanks. J
