if people have had COVID 3,4,5 times that means they don’t have immunity from it.

When we know that Covid is a highly contagious airborne virus that causes vascular damage, long term organ damage, mitochondrial damage, and brain damage, THIS is how our centers for DISEASE control respond. Shameful.

There it is: “In making recommendations to the public today, we have to try to get the most out of what people are willing to do.”

If there was immunity, there wouldn't be reinfections. We're not the smartest, and stopped following science years ago at this point.

1) Covid is predominantly airborne spread. 2) >50% of transmission is from asymptomatic people 3) LongCOVID is real, and impacts a substantial number of people. We've NEVER EVER EVER had these three things told to us by the system. Not once. Not by our leaders. 7/

"Why are we allowing a pandemic to be defined by the level of disease, and not by the level of infection?"
Replying to @RageSheen
I sympathise with him, because I've met experienced and knowledgeable people here that work with infectious diseases who still refuse to answer one basic question for me. Why are we allowing a pandemic to be defined by the level of disease, and not by the level of infection? /3

"...you would think we’d be seeing people wearing masks everywhere in public. That couldn’t be further from the truth. The state of denialism and general refusal to take simple steps to reduce the risk of infection can be seen everywhere." #Covid latimes.com/opinion/story/20…

This article is absolutely superb. And, as I continually point out, always watch the financial / business press for the best reporting.
