Pandemic on us?

On our government, anyway, as Dr. Doom (Fauci) is found out to have lied to Congress about our funding of the Chinese lab that made Covid 19—after the Afghanistan cut-and-run I’d believe anything bad about the feds.

Delta’s bright spot

[S]aid Robert Colgrove, interim chief of infectious diseases at Mount Auburn Hospital and an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School. “A welcome development is that totally vaccinated, frail older people with medical conditions — even among them we’re seeing very few hospitalizations, unlike in the first couple of pre-vaccine waves of the epidemic when there were just enormous amounts of very, very sick [elderly] people.”

But Lambda is on the way and there are more than a dozen other variants of potential concern.

The endless pandemic

Booster shots for the first world and not enough 1 and 2 series for the third world could mean an endless pandemic as the third world keeps covid alive and thriving. (As well as mutating.)

“…those that are left behind can actually drive the pandemic forward,” says WHO. “The virus will not go away in any way, shape or form and we will not find a way to live alongside the virus.”

Swell.

Drawing the black bean

Daughter and son-in-law of an OCS friend are in the hospital in Georgia with Covid 2. She’s not doing well and is facing a ventilator. The dreaded ventilator. Off of which most do not come before passing.

The black bean drawing is an old Texas saying that stems from the 1843 capture of some Texans and would be Texans who were fighting off a Mexico invasion of the then-Republic of Texas. Drawing a black bean meant they would be executed.

Mr. Boy’s vax

He said he was opposed to it. Just a gut feeling, he contended. Then I read him something one of my OCS buds wrote, about it being our social duty to get with the program, and he caved. Went to Walgreen’s for a Pfizer jab and came back with his “passport,” the proof-of-vax card that inevitably will be used for many things as the pandemic continues. Pleased with himself. As are we.

UPDATE: Months later, I wish I hadn’t convinced him, as the vax is causing medical trouble for many. I have decided against the second booster. Had a dream about refusing a third one.

Evolution in action

We seem to have a bunch of the young opting out of the vaccines. I thought the CCP virus was supposed to be an old-people killer.

You go, Joe!
