He and the people in his administration are still going to push everyone to get a booster, though
Biden says ‘the pandemic is over’ even as death toll, costs mount
U.S. President Joe Biden said in an interview aired on Sunday that “the pandemic is over,” even though the country continues to grapple with coronavirus infections that kill hundreds of Americans daily.
“The pandemic is over,” Biden said during an interview conducted with CBS’ “60 Minutes” program on Wednesday on the sidelines of the Detroit auto show, an event which drew thousands of visitors.
“We still have a problem with COVID. We’re still doing a lotta work on it. But the pandemic is over. If you notice, no one’s wearing masks. Everybody seems to be in pretty good shape. And so I think it’s changing.”
The toll of the COVID-19 pandemic has diminished significantly since early in Biden’s term when more than 3,000 Americans per day were dying, as enhanced care, medications and vaccinations have become more widely available.
We noticed it was over for most Americans months and months ago. We were done with all the restrictions, the closures, the forced masking, all that long ago, especially when we saw all the big wigs refusing to wear masks. When we saw the Elites playing Mask Theater, where they’d put it on for the cameras and then take it off. When we saw Biden and his people walk up to the podium and take the mask off, despite Biden’s EO requiring the wearing of masks inside federal buildings. Dare I say it was officially done on Super Bowl Sunday 2022, with all the big wigs blowing off the mask requirements?
But nearly 400 people a day continue to die from COVID-19 in the United States, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Biden spent more than two weeks isolated in the White House after two bouts with COVID-19, starting in July. His wife Jill contracted the virus in August. Biden has said the mild cases were a testament to the improvements in care during his presidency.
Remember, more people died from COVID under Biden in the same time frame as died under Trump, despite all the vaccines and knowledge. And people like Biden got Wuhan flu multiple times
I received my COVID-19 booster and you should too. These vaccines are safe, free, and effective. Visit https://t.co/ddwWZdNCgg for more information and get your updated COVID-19 vaccine.

I guess she didn’t get the message. She did get COVID, though.
(The Hill) As a result, the Biden administration has focused its messaging on the importance of getting vaccinated and receiving booster shots to increase immunity, as well as the wide availability of of antiviral pills and other forms of treatment for those who contract the virus.
Immunity? Immunity is with the measles and polio shots. This is more like the shot (unfortunately) for the flu, where, maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t, but, if you get it, the symptoms will probably be more weak or moderate. How many times have people gotten it and said “thankfully I’m vaxxed and boosted”?
I will say, I still attempt to avoid shaking hands and keep my distance when possible. I wash the heck out of my hands, but, I do that anyhow. Some people are just nasty.

It is astonishing how career government officials can lie with a straight face no matter what the topic is. That is why people loved Trump. He was never a politician, but as a real estate developer and media mogul, he had to deal with them and understood what a cancer they are.
Also, that is why establishment Democrats and Republicans hated Trump, and still hate his supporters. How DARE anyone get past the gate keepers using something as archaic as voting.
Credit where it is due:
Thank you Biden for not killing me last year. May you all get through the next year without Biden killing you.
“BREAKING: Biden’s economic sanctions on the U.S. to be partially lifted prior to November election”
I read it on The Bee so it must be true.![https://www.thepiratescove.us/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_smile.gif](https://www.thepiratescove.us/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_smile.gif)
Off topic but I am really getting tired of the Biden this, Biden that, bull. All decisions are handed down to WH staff from an unelected, unaccountable cabal of globalists, the intent of whom is to destroy the country.
Matt,
I agree with you. Since none of us really know who is running the country, it’s just easier to say “Biden” as a euphemism for “the unknown unelected cabal that is controlling America from behind the scenes while Joe Biden pretends to be President of the USA”.
…then all the “emergency” actions (such as illegally altered voting laws) are null and void, correct?
The laws are null and void. Sadly, the results are not. In America, you keep what you stole. Also, even though the laws are null and void, they can totally be used again any time the Democratic party wants to and they will get away with it then too. Some people are above the law.
The sad thing about all of this is that the CDC told everyone in 12/20 that the vaccines were not 100%.
But the “experts” and media talking heads pushed them as perfect. The resulting claims and counter claims caused many to hesitate or even refuse. A deadly lack of action by the obese, immune system impaired and many of the elderly. And perhaps even worse, the credibility of the public health system was severely damaged.
But at least we now know that Fauci lied and the Left pushed us into a lockdown that we’re still not over. Valuable lessons for the next time.
Lewis typed: But the “experts” and media talking heads pushed them as perfect.
But did they? Between reasonable people pushing the trump vaccines and anti-vaxxers preaching that they were deadly, what was a person to believe? The trump vaccines are effective but not perfect. Since conservatives were much LESS likely to get vaccinated were they put off by the “claims” of vaccine perfection? Makes no sense, does it?
It was fascinating to see and hear right-winger elites discourage people from getting vaccinated but hypocritically receiving the vaccines themselves.
Child, if any but a miniscule proportion can catch the disease after inoculation, it’s not a vaccine. Perfection has nothing to do with it. We would settle for adequacy.
That doesn’t even begin to address the painful idiocy of REQUIRING the “vaccine” in order to fly or keep a job.
The “experts” have been screwing the pooch for a long time now. And you are the one bending over.
Alky, you have no idea what you are talking about.
What is your continued fascination with sphincter sex?
Dear Elwood:
Try as I might, I can’t remember any supposed “right wing elites” taking the vaccine themselves while telling others not to.
Perhaps you can give us names and other details????
Anti-vaxxers aren’t conservatives. By and large they are libertarian.
Recall that tRump received fewer votes than his opponents in both 2016 and 2020, unless you feel/believe the “unelected, unaccountable cabal of globalists” rigged the elections.
No wonder wingers have become so unmoored. Reality is not on your side, so you make up your own!!
” Reality is not on your side, so you make up your own!!”
Says the guy who believes unborn babies are not human, men can menstruate and have babies, people can actually change their sex, humans are destroying the earth with AGW, FJB got more votes than any candidate in history even though he is senile and didn’t campaign, a mob of unarmed angry ignored voters constitute an insurrection when they protest at the Capitol but thousands of leftist commies pose no threat as they burn down cities, businesses, gov’t buildings and kill people.
You have no self awareness. As you scream for “equity” your comrades have brown people removed from Martha’s Vineyard by force. You are all liars!!!!
MAGA moron.
Yes, Lucas, you are a MAGA moron. But is there any other kind?
Your religion tells you that a fertilized egg is a person, even though a god or gods kills the majority of them before they attach to the womb. Anyone with a uterus can menstruate, anyone with a uterus can have a baby, and your view of what constitutes a sex is primitive.
Yes, global warming is a threat. Brandon received 7 million more votes than Don Q Trump. Don Q urged his followers to attack the Capitol to delay the certification of the vote to stop the peaceful transfer of power, the cornerstone of our representative democracy. The violent protests resulting from perception of unfair killings of Black people were not an attack on the US.
You have no self awareness, and just may be plain stupid. Sorry. The Venezuelan migrants that were shipped like cattle to Martha’s Vineyard were not removed by force. That’s just a lie because you can’t understand how any American could be sympathetic and kind to a migrant. Much of what you believe is untrue.
Wow, that was great. You basically disected every stupid idea and belief your religion of hate preaches in one comment. Kudos.
Everything you believe is untrue. It’s a miracle you have enough self awareness to eat, pee and shit on your own. The pedo doesn’t.
Your religion tells you that a fertilized egg is a person, even though a god or gods kills the majority of them before they attach to the womb.
Nobody “kills” anything. Some seeds fall on fertile soil, others don’t. It’s nature asshole. Follow the science. Theology has nothing to do with it. Why do you keep comparing science to theology ?
Anyone with a uterus can menstruate, anyone with a uterus can have a baby,
Are you saying men can have babies? Because men do not have a uterus. Follow the science goof.
and your view of what constitutes a sex is primitive.
Why don’t you tell us what your view of what constitutes sex is. Primitive, are you some kind of shit head?
MAGA you perverted commie.
Rimjob believes if he keeps repeating a flawed message enough times that eventually it will be true.

Add a few personal insults, also untrue, and repeat ad absurdum.
Such a tool.

Bwaha! Lolgf
Luther,
They are babies, not watermelon seeds, you monster!! How dare you compare god’s little creations to to packages of seeds you buy at Walmart!!
And you would send a 12 year old girl to her death for “murdering” a watermelon seed. Monster!!
Since every fertilized egg is a human/baby/person, don’t you feel horrible that millions of those tiny, defenseless babies are being flushed down the toilet or thrown in the garbage with egg shells, coffee grounds, chicken bones, used condoms, orange peels, tampons and toenail clippings. Not much of a funeral.
What part of Anyone with a uterus can menstruate, anyone with a uterus can have a baby, do you find to complicated to understand?
You’re one sick fuggin’ MAGAt! LOL.
The woke commenter from St Louis County wrote:
Yes, a human embryo is a living human being; he is certainly nothing else.
Even the ‘transgender’ activists do not deny biological “sex”, but claim that “gender” is a societal construction. Anyone with a uterus can menstruate, and anyone with a uterus can have a baby, but you forgot the most important part: anyone with a uterus is female!
The left tell us to believe in science, but when it comes to ‘transgenderism,’ science is the first thing that they have to ignore and try to explain away.
You know, I get it: you want to be kind to those suffering from gender dysphoria. But going along with their obvious delusions is like going along with the guy who got a quack plastic surgeon to give him pointed ears and who then says he’s a Vulcan; you don’t go along with his make-believe; you try to get him help.
