    What's strange is they're actually not on a spaceship and it really is VFX.

    I wish I was surprised by this. Sadly, I’m not. If there was competent leadership in this country, Greg Abbott would be facing criminal charges. Instead, he’s going to be praised by the idiot in chief and head of the Republican Party in the White House, Donald Trump, who deserves to face criminal charges himself.

    All we can do is vote Republicans out of office as soon as they are up for reelection.

    The implication is that political pressure is behind TMC not reporting data. This is a serious question as I don't understand the workings of the TMC, how they are managed or funded. Is there political pressure and method that can be brought by the State government on TMC to make them stop reporting?

    I've been checking that TMC website daily, lol. Well, I don't think it's a conspiracy or political pressure, at least I hope not. I think they're just...updating?

    I like their link to all of the sources they are using for information -- appears to be a well sourced article (previous article you posted specifically -- this one directly links to Nature).

    The latest link along with the other show that you can have long term effects along with no real immunity. Asympomatic are showing damage.

    This notion of just getting it is wrong and dangerous. Its more than just deaths the 2 links provided yet again show the flawed logic of it just being about deaths.

    No surprise since those touting deaths are from the party of covid. Deaths at 120k. You seriously cant make this up

    Not according to the article. The change came after Abbott voiced concerns over the media response.
