The New York Times published this article in June 2020, then we pretended it never happened.

“The emerging picture indicates that the model for HIV treatment, a cocktail of antiviral drugs, may be a good bet for those with mild illness..." nytimes.com/2020/06/26/hea…New York Times June 26, 2020 “How the Coronavirus Short-Circuits the Immune System In a disturbing parallel to H.I.V., the coronavirus can cause a depletion of important immune cells, recent studies found.”
September 2021: infectioncontroltoday.com/view/long-covi…Infection Control Today: “One of those experts is Kevin Kavanagh, MD, a member of Infection Control Today®’s (ICT®’s) Editorial Advisory Board who, in a Viewpoint published Monday, forcefully described the differences between COVID-19 and the flu. “Unlike influenza, SARS-CoV-2 uses ACE2 receptors to infiltrate cells,” Kavanagh wrote. “Similar to HIV, SARS-CoV-2 can silently spread throughout the host’s body and attack almost every organ.”
In January 2022, we learned SARS-CoV-2 causes more T cell death than HIV.
Someone just reposted this ☝️ I forgot about it. Three years after that was published, Ashish Jha confidently tells us Covid doesn’t cause immunodeficiency and the powers that be are desperately trying to convince us viral persistence is a myth. Ok sure, whatever y’all say!
I’m still waiting on my “cocktail of antiviral drugs.” When will those be available?
The New York Times excels at revisionist history, particularly when it comes to Covid.
I felt the same way, & I still feel this way about the above article from 2020. And then we didn’t heard about it again from mainstream media for like 4 years.
And NO ONE is getting THE COCKTAIL OF ANTIVIRALS. It has been 6 years and we are properly f**ked.
We have ignored this for 5 years and we will continue to ignore it until record profits can be made.
NO ONE HAS BEEN GETTING “THE COCKTAIL,” AND FIVE DAYS OF PAXLOVID IS WORTHLESS FOR THIS PURPOSE. IT DOES NOT CLEAR THE VIRUS.

Here is a thread I made when Candida auris began jumping from person-to-person for the first time EVER. Biden was President & we were 4 months into Back to Normal.

Everyone ignored it.

By 2024, we had C. auris clusters in children’s hospitals, & some states quit reporting it.
The carnage is so widespread, it’s actually breathtaking. After Biden rolled back public health protections in U.S. hospitals, we’ve simply ignored the RECORD disease that followed.

Mark my words, THIS pathogen will collapse our healthcare systems.
We are doing “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” public health, & it’s going to kill us.

NYS is reporting the largest one week flu increase since record-keeping began in 2004. Hospitalizations increased 63% in a week. Last year, bird flu was surging in tandem with influenza A, & it was concerning.

As the record mutant flu arrives, NO ONE is mentioning bird flu…
I hate seeing these patterns as most of society, including our government, remain oblivious.

CNN ran articles with headlines like, “Spike of flu virus in wastewater raise questions about spread of bird flu.”

Then we forgot.
“More than 71,000 positive flu cases were reported in New York in just seven days — the most since influenza became a reportable disease in 2004.

Hospitalizations are climbing just as fast, jumping 63% in one week.” rochesterfirst.com/news/health/sp…

September 2022: “We found a lot of DNA damage that was unique to the COVID patients which wasn’t present in the flu patients. COVID & flu look very different in the way they affect the heart.”

Then the US combined flu/COVID data, & we never looked back. brisbanetimes.com.au/national/queen…
2023: “We found evidence, in the hearts of COVID patients, abnormalities in the way calcium is handled.

The data we present show that there are dramatic changes in the heart. The precise cause & long term consequences of those need to be studied more.” time.com/6256674/covid-…Time: How COVID changes the heart even after the virus is gone.
“The spikes in heart attack deaths have tracked with surges of COVID infection—even during the presumed less-severe Omicron phase of the pandemic.

The data showed the increase was most significant among individuals ages 25-44, who are not usually considered at high risk for heart attack.” cedars-sinai.org/newsroom/covid…Cedars Sinai Los Angeles,Oct24,2022 COVID-19 Surges Linked to Spike in Heart Attacks

We knew this by 2022, when the 1-year studies were published.

The data was HORRIFYING. Covid in pregnancy was associated with 2x increased rate of neurodevelopmental diagnoses. Then we spent the next 3 years repeatedly infecting all the babies & kids. post-gazette.com/news/health/20…Pittsburgh Gazette: COVID infection during pregnancy linked to neurodevelopmental issues in study Photo of Hanna Webster HANNA WEBSTER Pittsburgh Post-Gazette hwebster@post-gazette.com DEC 6, 2025 4:00 A
“We should not forget about the importance of protecting against infection in pregnancy. It has a major benefit for moms, but there may be this added benefit for children as well.”

Why are they pretending this is new & uncertain?? post-gazette.com/news/health/20…

MAHA.

“The Trump administration is backing Monsanto in its effort to get the Supreme Court to shield it from liability over cancer claims related to its Roundup weedkiller.” Hill: Trump admin backs Monsanto effort to limit Roundup lawsuits over glyphosate BY RACHEL FRAZIN 12/02/25 02:07 PM ET
OOPS - it’s fine though! Don’t worry, no one can sue!
The Trump administration filed a brief with the Supreme Court that said, “Eat Shit & Die Faster. Who cares if the weedkiller is in all the sperm? Who cares if you’re all sick & infertile? Monsanto needs us.” thehill.com/policy/energy-…The Trump administration is backing Monsanto in its effort to get the Supreme Court to shield it from liability over cancer claims related to its Roundup weedkiller, a move that could anger the Trump administration’s allies in the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement. The Trump administration filed a brief with the Supreme Court arguing that lawsuits alleging that Monsanto failed to warn consumers of the health impacts of its Roundup weedkiller are preempted by federal law.
The brief comes in support of Monsanto’s effort to get the Supreme Court to overturn a lower court’s ruling that the company had to pay damages for failing to warn about its product’s health impacts. The Trump administration’s brief notes that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers Roundup ingredient glyphosate not likely to be cancer causing and has approved its use. It says that states should not be able to impose further requirements that give rise to failure-to-warn lawsuits.

And so it begins…

An American died of H5N1 at the beginning of the year, but we ignored it.

We didn’t report a single human case all year, until recently…not because we were testing & tracking it, but because we were not. ABC: Washington state man believed to be the first to die from a rare strain of bird flu A Washington state man is believed to be the first person to die from a rare strain of bird flu, but state health officials say the risk to the public is low ByThe Associated Press November 21, 2025, 9:44 PM ET • 2 min read
We have been hearing “the risk to the public remains low” since the first human H5N1 case was reported in the U.S. in 2022.

This strain has never been reported in humans before. abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/w…The risk to the public remains low," the statement from state health officials said. “No other people involved have tested positive for avian influenza.” Health officials said they will monitor anyone who came in close contact with the man, but “there is no evidence of transmission of this virus between people." Earlier this month, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a statement about the infection that said no information would suggest “the risk to public health has increased as a result of this case.”
“The risk to the public remains low.”
