2- “.. with health officials pointing to waning immunity, the highly transmissible Delta variant and reduced adherence to COVID-safe practices as a trifecta of culprits.”
In other words, viruses mutate around leaky vaccines. Who knew?
3- “Things continue to get worse,” Acting Health Secretary Dr. David Scrase said during a weekly news conference yesterday, describing the general picture of COVID-19 in New Mexico at present time as “grim.”
But but but @POTUS was going to “shut down the virus”. 🤷🏼♂️
4- “New Mexicans should not expect to see additional restrictions, short of the indoor-mask mandate being renewed in the public health order.”
Put the masks back on. That will do it.
5- “Scrase and others urged New Mexicans to schedule booster shots to counter waning immunity, which they calculate sets in at roughly five and a half months after a second shot of Pfizer of Moderna.”
The shot bought 5 months of protection. Is that what we were sold?

"The prospects for meeting a clear herd-immunity target are “very complicated,” said Dr. Jefferson Jones, a medical officer on the CDC’s COVID-19 Epidemiology Task Force."
2 -"Recent evidence has also made clear that the immunity provided by vaccines can wane in a matter of months."
"The result is that even if vaccination were universal, the coronavirus would probably continue to spread."
If only anyone had predicted this..🤦🏽♂️
3- "To Dr. Oliver Brooks, a member of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, it was a sobering new message, with potentially worrisome effects."
Mostly worrisome because it means Brandon was always full of shit.
1- "In addition, the Pfizer vaccines were not evaluated for preventing infection, but rather symptomatic or severe disease and death. And when it comes to these statistics, the vaccines – at least for now – seem to be doing their job."
2- Big Pharma ran trials on efficacy - i.e. preventing infection. They never ran trials on anything else. The sold their drugs to the world based on this.
3- Here's Dr Frankenvirus in May, confidently stating the vaccines are a "dead end" for COVID.
1- “..team of statisticians from Colorado State University that has spent the pandemic helping the State of Colorado forecast spikes in COVID-19 cases says the recent surge in cases in Colorado is mysterious.”
1- “Detailed breakthrough data showed that fully vaccinated Minnesotans made up 197 of the 483 deaths from Sept. 5-Oct. 9 and 1,082 of the 3,492 COVID-19 hospitalizations.”
1- “The NBA has seen an increased positivity rate among vaccinated players, team staff and family members of late, which is consistent with the trends in many places around the nation.”
2- “The NBA — following the lead of U.S. health authorities — want to shore up protection in at-risk people who were vaccinated months ago.”
Bend that knee, boys. You thought this was one shot, didn’t you?
3- “About 97% of NBA players have been vaccinated against COVID-19, the league has said. The most notable holdout is Brooklyn’s Kyrie Irving, a perennial All-Star who is not being allowed by the Nets to play until he gets vaccinated.”
1- "Germany counted a staggering 50,196 new COVID-19 infections on Thursday, its highest count since the pandemic began. It is the first time the country has been battling a major wave despite a majority of its population being doubly vaccinated."
2- "Our vaccination rate is still under 75% of the German population," said Dr. Christine Falk, president of the German Society for Immunology."
Bookmark this. Their rate will go over 75% and they'll say it needs to be higher (and that they've said this all along).
3- "While the jabs significantly lower the risk of serious illness and death, they don’t fully protect against infection. With soaring case numbers, the risk of getting COVID-19 also rises for vaccinated people."
