Not really, unless you’re perpetually scared just entirely predictable when they finally opened up. “Average age shot 40 years to over 70 in a week.” I mean, nothing at all surprising or shocking about a bunch of unvaccinated 70+ year olds getting sick when things opened up and it’s not like we haven’t seen pretty much every major country go through their phase of that. Just more Herman Cain award winners for ya. |

Tanko Member since: Aug 15, 2019 Threads: 0 Posts: 1988 | They condemned Trump when he closed the US to China in Jan 2020, after that country reported only 258 cases of Covid, and zero deaths. At the time there were less than a dozen reported cases in the US and no deaths. Then they criticized him for not closing the border fast enough. Funny chit. This week, China reported 250 million new cases of this latest strain, or possibly new virus, in just the first few weeks of December. Bodies are piling up so fast, there is a ten day backlog for cremations. Not a word from the empty suits or the CDC. Our economy is too dependent on China to mess with them. Added more PFE. Can't believe I forgot about SCI. Slick investors smelled death weeks ago. That company is to stiffs, what McDonalds is to french fries. Never let a good crisis go to waste. |

rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18764 | Reportedly, China was using a fairly ineffective vaccine, so they may as well be considered a no vaccine nation. They are just now starting with phizer. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

I don’t know who the mysterious “they” you speak of are, but I seem to remember the criticism being he moved too slow to close off the US from China. By the time he did it - it was far too late. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | That's great. I got out of the hospital yesterday with Covid. My wife got it also but wasn't admitted, she was prescribed Paxlovid, and seems to be improving slightly. As sick as I am, it will take awhile to recover, if. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |
