COVID is back, says French PM
Source: Politico

French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne said Tuesday that "the COVID epidemic is starting again" and called for preventative measures.

Borne said that more than 40,000 cases are being detected every day at the moment, while "an increase of almost 10 percent in hospitalizations, 22 percent increase in hospitalizations in critical care and 400 deaths from COVID" was observed last week.

"This new wave reminds us: The virus has not disappeared, the epidemic strikes again, kills again," she added.

The prime minister stressed that hospitals are facing additional pressure due to an epidemic of bronchiolitis as well as the flu season.

For some reason, locking people down and making them get unproven shots that cause death REALLY appeals to liberals (https://www.democraticunderground.com/10143000874)

Too much DUmmy bullshit to bring over. If there is a next time, they're going to have to be happy sitting at home or wearing masks in their ******* cars, because everyone else has moved on from what is now simply known as the common cold.
Don't even get me started on the shots, except to say that my dearest wish is that liberals continue to get them as often as possible, because they are now proven to cause death. If you think you're "immunocompromised," then stay the **** home and
watch MSNBC and leave us out of it.

And stimulus? Ha: DUmmies, your stimmys are going to the Zelenskyy Grand Escape and Generational Wealth Fund.

I bet they would love more printed money in the form of a stimulus check again.  :whatever:

Looking at US new cases and daily deaths charts, Covid cases and deaths are very low and still falling, https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ .

Looking at France data, https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/france/ , There have been bumps in new cases in October and November. However, there have not been corresponding increases in daily deaths.

Being fear-driven, many/most DUmmies will ignore these facts. The silver lining is that fewer DUmmies will be out about, lowering chances of DUmmie encounters at stores (except in fictional :bouncy: s, of course).

     Keep in mind that the average age of the avid DUmp poster is about 65, and they're stupid by self-selection, so naturally they're spooked by anything and everything. All they care about is making it another day, so they can get into political discussions in the grocery line and leave the store in their 1977 Honda CVCC to thunderous applause.

But if the DUmmies are on voluntary lockdown then they'll more time sitting around to dream and type in new bouncies.

The average DU-member is younger than me? I remember those Civics. Great gas mileage, but small capacity. I'm not sure I could fold into one. I remember "Consumer Reports" magazine had an article when Honda introduced the Accord. CR panned it as a terrible step backwards ... real life consumers, ummmm, felt otherwise.

But if the DUmmies are on voluntary lockdown then they'll more time sitting around to dream and type in new bouncies.

Not sure we'd recognize a difference, but more :popcorn: for us. If they have extra :bouncy:-writing time, maybe they could use the time to improve the quality of their :bouncy: s.

It aint going away. Period.

Anybody - DUmmie or otherwise - who imagined the SARS-CoV-2 virus would "go away" doesn't know how viruses work, nor history (e.g., influenza viruses keep coming back year after year).

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
