Mr. President, the US lost more people to COVID under your watch with a vaccine than under Trump without a vaccine. How/why? And a follow up: If new variants caused it, then what’s the plan if deadlier or more contagious variants will hit?

cc @jonkarl @kaitlancollins @pdoocy
More tests and more masks; Biden’s presser —- because all this worked so great until now.

That and 75% adults vaccinated, yet more people died of COVID-19 under Biden than Trump (when COVID was new and panic ruled the day).

Nobody’s home in the GOP, Con Inc or in WH Press.
Look out for how few @HouseGOP, @SenateGOP, Con Incers and WH “reporters” will point out the next 24 hours that COVID-19 deaths under Biden surpassed the number of under Trump and should therefore be a moment to adjust strategy. But no. More of the same.

Lunacy.
438,594 of those deaths happened through 1/20/21; Inauguration Day.

438,646 reminding deaths happened since then.

How many WH “reporters” will press Biden on this and ask what add-on policies beyond tests/masks and most adults vaccinated can be done to help cut new deaths?
It’s known from Israel data since July 2021 that vaccinated people can be C19 infected with symptoms too.

Why are vaxx passes used which gives people the false sense that they can’t be infected; leading them to roam carelessly despite having symptoms and causing spread?
Not only isn’t it yet adapted that the vaxx passes made things worse (because people wrongly assumed that they can’t get COVID so they roamed carelessly while symptomatically infected), but most governments still push the vaxx passes as if it is a net help.
The N95 awakening could have happened 6-12 months ago when data showed the shortcomings of other masks, but that data were ignored by Corporate PR (“media”) and crushed by Social Media companies. How many people died due to it? How long will it take to wake up about vaxx passes?
The crushing of data and science in name of defending science the last 22 months led to deadly policies that could have been corrected 6-12 earlier.

UNTIL TODAY, if you are early to accept the newest data, you risk being suspended and that data gets little “media” coverage.
Omicron went global largely due to vaccinated people as most international travel (in the West) needs vaccination. Yet, YET, vaccine fanatics keep asking Biden if/when there will be a domestic flight vaccine mandate!

Most of the institutional conversations around Covid-19 policies is that it has not been implemented enough. There is a little consideration that some policies made things worse and could’ve been corrected 6-12 months earlier!

@amber_athey The study has jokes.

For example: The median days since vaccination in Cali is 138-150 while previous infection is 262-277 days earlier.

Why isn’t the headline finding of the same amount of days among both groups?

Why test vaccines 138-150 days out vs. infection more days out? Image
@amber_athey @brithume @RanIsraeli @HotlineJosh @DanCrenshawTX @MichaelPSenger @kerpen @Peoples_Pundit @libbyemmons @MartyMakary @DrewHolden360 Now look at the finding: Percent of people within a population pool who landed up in the hospital with COVID (far right of chart):

11.5% No Vax/No Previous Infection.

0.7% Yes Vax/No Previous Infection.

0.3% Previous Infection Regardless of Vaxx.

HELLO on the last. WOW! Image
@amber_athey @brithume @RanIsraeli @HotlineJosh @DanCrenshawTX @MichaelPSenger @kerpen @Peoples_Pundit @libbyemmons @MartyMakary @DrewHolden360 @Deedrah @BrookeBaldwin @JimCarrey @NanHayworth @StevePhillipsMD Just WOW: COVID cases among vaccinated/not previously infected people in California during this study was THREE TIMES higher (15.5% of such people) than among unvaccinated people who already had COVID (5.0% of such people).

@Deedrah, did you at all read the study? Image

From 8/25/21 through 1/5/22, Vermont’s COVID deaths rose from 273 to 482. This is 209 deaths.

In the same time, the state had 116 breakthrough (vaccinated) COVID deaths.

= 55.5% of COVID deaths in those 4+ months were among the vaccinated.
One retort to the above data is “look how few COVID deaths VT has.” True, but that was the case even before C19 vaccination. What’s more, 43.2% of all COVID deaths in the state since the start, happened in the last 4+ months and more than half of those are among the vaccinated.
Another retort is, “well, 85% of VT above the age of 5 is vaccinated so making up 55.5% of deaths shows it works.”

It works for a while, but the sell was get jabbed and done. Not “get a booster within 5 months of jabs and make up 55% of an elevated number of deaths.”

Hi @Bob_Wachter. You shouldn’t feel guilty about someone getting COVID when more than 146 mill in the US already had it according to the CDC.

Maybe feel guilty for spreading the illusion that people can prevent COVID’s spread (while living a sane life).

cdc.gov/coronavirus/20…
A lead doctor went on a 25-tweet sad thread about his 28 year old triple vaccinated son getting COVID and having mild symptoms.

There are 846 COVID deaths in that age group among 800K+ COVID deaths.

Also, 14,065 in that age died of all causes in the same time.
This isn’t about one father’s personal experience.

This is about a lead doctor in Cali being totally detached from overall threats and illnesses potentially impacting his 28 year old son and where COVID fits into that dynamic.

These freak-meisters shape public policy.

Nuts.

Um, 1.03% of children deaths in the US the last two years are with COVID-19, and children make up under a tenth of a percent of COVID deaths in the US.

Justices and those arguing cases in court R clueless of some basic facts surrounding COVID-19.

No wonder the garbage rulings. Image
Her clown assumption is that everyone spews COVID; that being vaccinated means not spewing, and that a virus with a survival rate in the 99% range is the same as sparks which can ignite fires in most cases. She would run if sparks spewed in Court; not if someone there has COVID. Image
Tweeting facts here won’t matter in court if judges are exposed to fact-less media intake for 22 months, and if CLOWN attorneys don’t first and most focus on basic documented, up-to-date facts.

Have a great weekend all.

In the summer of 2020, the life of a POTUS was endangered by lefty rioters so much so that he and family were rushed to the bunker.

If not for the Secret Service there (60 agents were wounded), it could have been a successful insurrection.

It was treated as a big joke.
The point above is that a mass trespassing event inflamed by trigger-happy cops doesn’t deserve any attention beyond understanding why PD was this brutal and why civil rights of political dissidents are getting crushed with impunity since then.

#PutinsAmerica.
It was a joke when POTUS Trump was bunkered due to political violence in 2020 that left 60+ USSS agents/officers wounded. I am not adapting any crazy language about a mass trespassing event that had barricade pushers and some who instinctively reacted to a brutal crackdown by PD.

The minute you call it a “violent terrorist attack on the capitol,” you lose most of your standing when complaining about the DOJ, Dems and Media because they have diff views than you how to handle a “violent terrorist attack on the capitol.”

cc @ColumbiaBugle @KurtSchlichter
That is @tedcruz.

Cruz, the “fighter.”

He called now Jan 6th “a violent terrorist attack on the capitol.”

Hahaha.

GOP - Group of Putzes.

It’s not @LeaderMcConnell or @GOPLeader. It’s the fabric of the party.

cc @Cernovich @julie_kelly2
He didn’t mention BLM or the insurrection at the WH last year that forced a POTUS into the bunker and wounded 60 USSS staff.

The GOP is a systemic clown show.
