Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25010 | AOC Tests Positive for Coronavirus There's a bunch of video of her dancing with no mask and hugging people in Florida. I'm sure she thought she was fully protected because she's got both shots and a recent booster. She believed her parties baloney hype. Suckers... If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Doesn't it make sense that Covid would develop into something less lethal? I'm obviously not a virologist, but what limited understanding I recall of viruses (from high school and college) is that viruses want to propagate, so it's, "Best," for a virus to evolve into a variant that is not lethal, or is minimally lethal, to its host. Again, I'm going off of what I think I remember from nearly two decades ago, so please correct me if I'm wrong. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want."

lethality != transmissibility I believe viruses often mutate to become more transmissible, but not necessarily more severe. |

If last week's COVID death toll is 21% higher than the average for 2021. The 1918 flu virus which killed more people than any other pandemic since the black death, never really died out. It mixed with other flu strains and was part of the virulent flu in 1957, 1968 and 2009. 1,930,082 deaths reported in 1968 2,437,163 deaths reported in 2009 2,831,836 deaths reported in 2018 2,845,793 deaths reported in 2019 3,400,000 deaths reported in revised number for 2020 3,400,000 deaths estimated for 2021 Although the estimated death toll for COVID in the USA is ~868,000 (354,000 in 2019 and 514,000 in 2020) we can see that there have been 1,108,414 extra deaths in combined 2020 and 2021 over the 2019 deaths. 3,605,201 is the provisional number of births for the United States in 2020 (down 4% from 2019) So unlike many countries around the world and most countries in Europe we still have a positive vegetative growth. |
