Good grief

The 41-year-old, known as The Undertaker, died at his home in Ciney, Belgium, after deciding to treat the "little virus" himself at home.

3 times world champ. 41 years old, and looks like from the picture he was still in excellent shape prior to the "little virus".

Delta hasn't gone away, btw, even if Omicron is dominant.

Flu Season cases in U.S.

2012-2013 = 34,000,000
2013-2014 = 30,000,000
2014-2015 = 30,000,000
2015-2016 = 24,000,000
2016-2017 = 29,000,000
2017-2018 = 45,000,000
2018-2019 = 36,000,000
2019-2020 = 38,000,000
2020-2021 = 1,822

Where did the flu go to? Obviously the flu is still here it's just called covid now because that's politically convenient. We will never know how many actual cases of covid there were because there are so many people in authority lying.

You think people making dumb decisions would have any better chance against a bad flu variant? They don't.

...because the same actions that protect you from getting covid also protect people from a potential bad flu variant if one comes along.

Quote: Vice President Biden

The coronavirus test should be made widely available and free. (3/21/2020)

21 months later, and more than 11 months into his Presidency, he has finally decided to actually address testing and (perhaps) place it in a position of importance.

They apparently turned down an opportunity to get many. many tests out for the holidays (per Vanity Fair) a couple of months ago.

I don't think any President can completely stop Covid...but I do think the failures of this President are evident to even a casual observer. His singular focus on the vaccine caused us to be behind in other areas to help fight the virus. That was in the face of the fact that we do know vaccinations are not perfect, so even the vaccinated need a full strategy in the battle.

Hopefully, the virus will continue to weaken as it mutates.

....Thanks to AMS for the correction; his highest office was VP prior to becoming President...not an intentional error, but it was an error.

I just give him credit for apparently knowing Covid was coming all the way back when he was a Senator.

I corrected the error in my post.

I guess you made a funny in the process.

You addressed an easily correctable error and didn't bother to address the failure of Joe Biden to do what Joe Biden said that Donald Trump should have been doing.

If President Trump should have gotten more tests out there as they became available, President Biden should have been way ahead of the game.

He failed.

I have a policy of not responding to your screeds against Biden with anything other than mockery.

You never wrote multiple paragraph criticisms of Donny’s massive failures. So the ones about Biden won’t get attention from me.

What you have is a policy of ignoring the failures of the President to keep his word and/or to follow up on what he said that the former President should do to help work the issue.

I wrote about some of President Trump's failures. Have you written anything negative about President Biden.

Never mind. I don't care.

He is among the people that think if we wear masks and vax it will all be over in just a few news cycles. He is afraid to do the heavy lifting. He dose not grasp that he has to quit being owned by big pharma and allow more treatments when people do get it.

He is kind of like a 12 year old becoming king but not having a regent.
