We are headed towards a catastrophe...

We had one in the first term: COVID-19, which almost no one predicted other than some chronic doom-sayers who got “lucky”. This time…who knows??? You have a group of deliberately ignorant miscreants in charge of the infrastructure of our federal government and a sufficient number of glad-handing, ass-kissing subservient governors, cabinet officers both state and federal, and state legislatures which deny the existence of reality.

When I was a kid, three other children died in my neighborhood of pneumonia which arose from a cold that evolved into bronchitis and then pneumonia. Three in a six square block area. Of a condition which today is treated with ten days of pills or at worst, IV antibiotics in a hospital. And that was just in one winter, 1962, in Bensalem Township, Pennsylvania.

We are returning to Stone Age in our thinking about vaccinations and communicable diseases. It’s not gonna take long for the new pandemic to take hold and of course, for the first quarter of a million deaths, it’ll just be a “hoax”. And it will be “under control”. And “decreasing”.

And tgen a celebrity will die. Think of Rock Hudson in the AIDS epidemic. That was a milestone and suddenly…it was real. I lost nearly thirty percent of my practice to that disease. I’m glad I’m semi-retired before this one coming. Hold onto your hats.

The only thing that is a catastrophe is this stupid post.

Wow! The only people that I knew that died from pneumonia were elderly. I never knew a kid dying from it and yet he knows three.

PCIntern is back to DUmmies' fantasy that Trump could have kept Covid out of the US but refused to do so? The Cave's pantry does not have enough s. Beyond not explaining what Trump could have done but declined, how did Covid spread to every country and continent on Earth, possibly excepting Antarctica?

If there's a half-honest DU-Onlurker seeing this post, go here to see who actually did and said what in early 2020, https://conservativecave.com/cave/index.php?topic=136532.0 . And for the terminally honest, what Trump's Administration did in January 2020, https://conservativecave.com/cave/index.php?topic=136525.0 , in February 2020, https://conservativecave.com/cave/index.php?topic=136526.0 , and in March 2020, https://conservativecave.com/cave/index.php?topic=136528.0 . Lots of "Reich-Wing" facts in those threads.

The only kids I knew when I was growing up who died were a girl who died of cancer and several idiots with senioritis who got drunk and went driving on the winding Old River Road (SR16) between Woodland and Sacramento. I don't mock the latters' deaths, but that stretch of SR16 was and is scary enough when sober.

I wonder if PCIntern is so uninformed that he thinks the cancellation of the Emergency Use Authorizations for Covid vaccines means Covid vaccines will no longer be available. RFK Jr.'s announcement made clear that the FDA approved Moderna, Novavax, and Pfizer vaccines are still available.

Reading only the title, I thought that PCDUchebag could be right because it was talking about the democrat cult pretending to be a political party.

Remember when they said everyone needed to get the jab so that the immuno-compromised who could not get the jab for health reasons would be protected by herd immunity?

Well, herd immunity kicks in around 80% to 85%. Meanwhile, US vaccination rates lagged behind 60% AND the virus is still out there mutating.

So, where are all the immuno-compromised casualties?

This is how accurate they are at foreseeing catastrophe.

Look, you ****ing doofus. The Chinese Wuhan Red Death hasn't been a serious threat to 99.9% of the population ever since that horrid commie country released that into the world. No amount of COVID vaccines will protect you, as has been proven.

The legacy media narrative over the past week especially has gone to ridiculous lengths and in some cases widths. Lamenting that the CDC has completely relaxed the regulations over the jab for kids. Those jabs are still in available but not recommended or mandatory, but for goodness sake...children are not overwhelmingly at risk unless they already have an underlying condition.

Panic porn from the left is all they have. Which I find hilarious.

We are returning to Stone Age in our thinking about vaccinations and communicable diseases1.. It’s not gonna take long for the new pandemic2. to take hold and of course, for the first quarter of a million deaths, it’ll just be a “hoax”3.. And it will be “under control”. And “decreasing”4..

1. Wolf! Wolf! Wolf!

2. Making plans?

3. Hey moron! It was Dems and their minions who in January, February, and March 2020 denounced Trump for exaggerating Covid, https://conservativecave.com/cave/index.php?topic=136532.0 . As for Dems' claim that Trump called Covid a hoax, this, from something I posted on another forum back in September 2020:

Did Trump really say that Covid-19 (2019-nCov) is a hoax? The Trump speech in question was at a February 28, 2020 rally in South Carolina. Here is a transcript of his speech, https://www.rev.com/transcripts/donald-trump-charleston-south-carolina-rally-transcript---february-28-2020 . And this is the relevant passage from the speech (a bit before and after the "07:07" point):

"... Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus, you know that right? Coronavirus, they're politicizing it. We did one of the great jobs. You say, "How's President Trump doing?" They go, "Oh, not good, not good." They have no clue. They don't have any clue. They can't even count their votes in Iowa. They can't even count. No, they can't. They can't count their votes.

One of my people came up to me and said, "Mr. President, they tried to beat you on Russia, Russia, Russia." That didn't work out too well. They couldn't do it. They tried the impeachment hoax. That was on a perfect conversation. They tried anything. They tried it over and over. They'd been doing it since you got in. It's all turning. They lost. It's all turning. Think of it. Think of it. And this is their new hoax. But we did something that's been pretty amazing. We have 15 people in this massive country and because of the fact that we went early. We went early, we could have had a lot more than that. ..."

Trump called the Trump-Russia Collusion falsehood and impeachment hoaxes. And Trump called the Democrats' politicization of Covid-19 a hoax, not Covid-19 or the 2019-nCov virus. Snopes admits this, https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/trump-coronavirus-rally-remark/ , and FactCheck.org does as well, https://www.factcheck.org/2020/04/democratic-ad-twists-trumps-hoax-comment/ , calling out a manipulated video clip in a "Priorities USA Action" ad.

4. In the real world, the deadliness of Covid started decreasing a few months after Trump started distribution of Covid vaccines, and the number of Covid cases started declining some time in 2022. So, in the real world, versions of the SARS-Cov-2 virus will be circulating for decades to come, much as influenza viruses have for over a century since the "Spanish Flu". But with "immunity" from vaccines and from recovery, cumulatively, the deadliness has declined by 2 or mor orders of magnitude.

First, the cat trophy in your other post got a hi5 from me because it was worth the price of reading the egotistical DU ramblings.

With that out of the way, didn't they (meaning the DemonRat overlords and their minions/servants at places like DU) bitch and moan and groan at everything the Trump did (and tried to do) during Covid?

I pose it as a question, because at that time I was trying to recover from a screwed up knee surgery so I wasn't paying as close attention to other goings on at the time, but that's what it seemed like from what I remember.

The Cave thread link was in my post above, "If there's a half-honest DU-Onlurker seeing this post, go here to see who actually did and said what in early 2020, https://conservativecave.com/cave/index.php?topic=136532.0 ." I won't claim I found every Dem pol's and Dem-city health official's Covid minimization, but I found a good number, and I set those minimizations in parallel with what Trump and his people were doing at the same time.

Maybe I should somehow add to that post the Dems' and their MSM shills' narrative reversal in the March-April time frame, their reversal from minimizing Covid to claiming Trump was not taking Covid seriously. I have a lot of what-Trump-actually-did info from spring-summer 2020, but there are a lot of news story and press release links that I would have to check for broken links and find current links to replace the broken ones.

The Cat-Ass-Trophy joke probably predates the Internet, possibly even predates me and other Cave Dwellers.

Trump: *Takes a step forward*.

Democrats: We are headed towards a catastrophe!
