    "it became popular to blame Republicans for fueling the pandemic. The argument was that Covid had become a red-state scourge because of lower rates of mask-wearing and vaccination — along with high doses of vaccine misinformation — in places that went heavily for Donald Trump"

    Agree, let's just stick to facts. Now, would this conservative author like to also talk about blaming Democrats for fueling the crime spikes, or the border crossing, or the war on Christmas?

    u don’t understand Deb, they didn’t die from Covid, they died from other causes and then paid off physicians with an agenda put the COD as Covid

    U didn’t hear about people getting killed in car accidents and having Covid be the COD on their death certificate? Lying MSM won’t tell u that…

    That's because those numbers are inflated. I've have sympathy for the people who fell for this sham. 700000 people died but not from Covid. All will be revealed soon but I dont think it will matter. You all will still deny it and run out to find more manufacturered stats.

    I know nearly nothing of AIDs and HIV, so I'll just post links to Snopes (fact check about AZT) and FDA (about HIV/AIDs treatments). You will likely ignore all of them (though if you want to learn more, do read them) - that's fine. I recommend you don't respond with more video clips (tips: I don't watch videos - that's usually for entertainment. I do read though). Note again that Fauci has been awarded many times for his work on AIDs/HIV, some by AIDs prevention advocacy groups (Ryan White Distinguished Leadership Award, Lifetime Achievement Award, Presidential Medal of Freedom, George Kober Medal (highest honor of association of American Physicians), and so on...)

    :rolleyes::rolleyes:, do you not understand that Kim Iversen has no standing in the infectious disease community?
    in this video, she comes across as an ignorant fool, a non-scientist reading off some verbiage written by someone else.

    the only thing that Kim Iversen knows about infectious disease and AIDS is that
    she doesn't understand them.

    as it relates to infectious disease / AIDS,
    Iversen needs to heed the sage words of Abe Lincoln.

    "best to remain silent and be thought of as a fool
    than to speak to erase all doubts"

    Fauci's awards in the scientific community over his 40-yr careers speak for themselves.

    Maybe it is time you get off your high horse and watch the video. Good info is good info whether in writing or in a video depending on where the source is coming from. A lot of things that you’ve read are garbage too so don’t act high and mighty that you only watch videos for entertainment purposes.

    If you said you know nothing about the AIDS crisis then there is really nothing to talk about. Go on and keep praising the Keebler Elf with all the BS political awards that he had garnered. Those of us in the know recognizing this elf is a dirty, dangerous and corrupt bureaucrat. One that should not be in charge of our public health, but the little elf is a darling of the left and he is untouchable.

    Like I’ve said, if I catch this elf alone, I’d like to shove some Keebler fudge up his backside.

    Obama won the Nobel prize, kind of ironic isn’t it? The only medal and awards that count in my books are the ones that given to heroes that sacrifice his/ her life to save another life. The Keebler with all of his medals and awards reminded me of the military generals of those banana republics. They are often shown at parades with their service dress uniform completely adorned with medals and ribbons from head to toe.

    Kim Iversen and I have 2 things in common. We are both Vietnamese and we know you’re a CCP bootlicker. So there you go.

    Biontech CEO (immunologist) talks about the new variant. Don't know yet if it's more severe but expect some protection AGAINST INFECTION to be reduced. Also don't know if it's spread faster than Delta. Will know more about existing vaccine eff in 2 weeks.

    NOTE: Google translates to English.

    Corona variant Omikron: Biontech CEO Sahin confident that his vaccine protects against serious illness (rnd.de)

    Biontech CEO Ugur Sahin expects that the existing Covid-19 vaccine from the Mainz-based manufacturer and its partner Pfizer will also offer protection against serious infections in the new Omikron variant. "We think it is likely that vaccinated people will have significant protection against serious diseases caused by Omikron," Sahin told Reuters on Tuesday. "We assume that this protection is even more pronounced when people have received their third vaccination."

    Biontech CEO Sahin reassured: "From my point of view, there is no reason to be particularly worried. The only thing that worries me at the moment is that there are people who have not yet been vaccinated." He expects more clarity about the effectiveness of the existing vaccines after the evaluation of laboratory tests in about two weeks. "We expect that the protection can be reduced to some extent against infections, but how much, we have to see."

    Above all, the protection provided by T cells after vaccination should continue to function very well with Omikron and offer appropriate protection against serious disease. It is also not unlikely that the third vaccination will also offer significant protection against infections and diseases of any kind.

    Whether an adapted vaccine could be necessary will be known in the coming weeks and months. Biontech is prepared for this in principle, Sahin said. "We've done a whole series of immunogenicity studies with variant vaccines. Further immunogenicity studies in humans may not be necessary after consultation with the authorities. The advantage is that we have been practicing this tyre change for months." If necessary, Biontech could have an adapted vaccine ready within just over three months. "The first market batch, the first 25 to 50 million doses that we produce, for example, we need around 100 days."

    According to Sahin, there is so far no evidence that infections with Omikron are more severe. "However, we do not know whether the virus is more infectious and spreads faster than the current delta variant. This makes it all the more important to continue and speed up vaccinations." Whether it will be the new delta, he does not know yet, "and even if it is, that alone is no reason to panic"
