    China going for let it rip strategy is going to be wild.

    Let it rip works when your population is seropositive from vaccine or prior infection. Not when you huddled your elderly who refused vaccines.

    Evidence that he “lied” would be internal documentation indicating that he knew or expected the grant money would be used to do GOF research in China. Did the NIH fund research with the expectation that it would entail gain of function laboratory work in China? That is clearly what he speaking to, and from what I’ve seen the answer appears to be “no”. It’s not always clear whether particular lab work will increase infectiousness or transmissibility. Scientists can have differing opinions on that. If that wasn’t the intent or the expected outcome of the research when they approved funding, then his statement is truthful.

    A summary of the debate on the EcoHealfh grant can be found here:

    LOL @ "fact checkers". As I previously showed, they often have their own strong bias.

    Right, and you and your sources are not biased whatsoever against Fauci. Any more interesting tidbits you'd like to share about his family?

    My friend in China who gave me the info on why they were protesting just messaged me. He said China has been completely open for almost a month now. He has Covid, his parents have Covid and all his students as well. He said it spread so fast that he could not believe it. His words…Almost everyone in China has it.

    No one that he knows seems to be affected any differently than any other kind of seasonal sickness.

    The inevitable can only be delayed for so long. No Covid and Zero Covid policies, lockdowns, mask mandates were all wrong.

    Even the CCP realizes it can't carry on like that.

    Facts have a liberal bias? Or maybe the vaccines nano-bots only work for people of the liberal persuasion?

    Coronavirus boosters cut hospitalization risk by at least 50%, CDC data shows

    At this time last year, there were twice as many covid-19 cases and about 70,000 people hospitalized, with deaths averaging about 1,300 a day. (Case data is a much less-reliable indicator now because at-home test results go unreported.)

    Jeanne Marrazzo, director of infectious diseases at University of Alabama in Birmingham, said the new CDC data on booster effectiveness is encouraging.

    “Pretty amazing that both studies could show a significant (and in older adults, quite substantial!) effect so quickly, given that the vaccine wasn’t even available till Sept. 1,” she wrote in an email.

    I work with a zoomer woman in an engineering field. Nice person, but completely brainwashed. Pronouns in her bio, masked 24/7, boosted to the max. She would inject herself with anything Pfizer/CDC tells her to without question.

    A month ago on a work trip she blacked out in her hotel room and had to be hospitalized for an irregular heart beat. She had no prior history of heart problems. Now she has to wear a monitor all the time to track her heart.

    It would destroy her mentally to admit the cause, so she will continue to get boosted, despite the health risk of doing so (and zero health risk of not getting boosted). Makes me sad.

    Yesterday I met your wife. She also had heart problems when she saw me.
