I don't believe this is going to be like that. Anymore.
I tend to believe there's going to be a Covid season every year like a Flu season.

Well, nothing short of eradication is going to stop it.
It’s more a question of mitigation and I’m not seeing much in the way of that—with much of anything that’s been done.
The virus just keeps on virusing.

The correlation is a lagging indicator. It takes time for mitigation efforts to show results.

Jesus fucking Christ that is a stupid statement. Those two statements cannot both be true. Wow what an utter logical fail.
‘It stops the spread between people, but it doesn’t stop the spread between people’. Dude you are a fucking genius.

Do you have a first grade familiarity with the scientific method? Apparently not.
There were more cases during the holiday so therefore holidays cause the spread.
There are more cases since Biden was elected therefore Biden’s election caused the spread.
There are more cases since the vaccine was developed therefore the vaccine causes the spread.
There are more cases since the Dow reached 30000 therefore the Dow reaching 30000 causes the spread.
Damn son your are stupid.

SAINT TONY, THE INFALLIBLE HIGH PRIEST OF THE COVID CULT
Per the failing New York Times:
Reports of a highly contagious new variant in the United States, published on Friday by multiple news outlets, are based on speculative statements made by Dr. Deborah Birx and are inaccurate, according to several government officials.
The erroneous report originated at a recent meeting where Dr. Birx, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, presented graphs of the escalating cases in the country.
She suggested to other members of the task force that a new, more transmissible variant originating in the U.S. might explain the surge, as another variant did in Britain.
Her hypothesis made it into a weekly report sent to state governors.
“This fall/winter surge has been at nearly twice the rate of rise of cases as the spring and summer surges. This acceleration suggests there may be a USA variant that has evolved here, in addition to the UK variant that is already spreading in our communities and may be 50% more transmissible,” the report read. “Aggressive mitigation must be used to match a more aggressive virus.”
Dismayed, officials at the C.D.C. tried to have the speculative statements removed, but were unsuccessful.

There are many reasons why COVID cultism has been a disaster.
The panic set off by the wildly inaccurate Imperial College model was picked up and amplified by the DEMOCRAT-run COVID Act Now! cabal.
These devious DEMOCRATS realized early that promoting pandemic panic would pave their party's path to power.
Using a contact list compiled for the purpose, they bombarded state and local officials daily with scary-sounding guesstimates based on the deeply flawed (and totally inaccurate) Imperial College projections.
As a result, elected officials with no scientific background or credentials panicked.
The economy crashed calamitously, destroying millions of lives, billions of dollars in equity and President Trump's greatest advantage in the upcoming campaign in a single sinister stroke.
Bungling bureaucrats bumptiously banned freedom of movement in areas of America which saw next to no cases.
Smug self-proclaimed entrenched "experts" who had lurked in the bowels of the federal workforce for years suddenly emerged as the High Priests and Priestesses of the Cult of COVID.
These slimy slugs of the scientific community (who were mostly administrative drones) blew up over 300 million lives with no provable scientific or medical justification.
Once they grasped the significance of the opportunity that the Chinese Communists in Wuhan had given them, DEMOCRATS in the media and in government passionately parroted the panic-promoting Gospel of the Novel Coronavirus around the clock.
Ignoring the highly-questionable nature of the basis of their faith, these COVID converts morphed into fanatical fundamentalists who demanded that they be obeyed - despite the inconsistencies in their tales of terror.
They told their captive congregation not to wear masks, then they told them to wear them, despite having no evidence that masks are effective in curbing the spread of the dread Coronavirus, the shibboleth they use to cow the masses.
People who are ideologically disposed to agree with anyone who appears to contradict President Trump still insist that "science" proves these inconsistent and contradictory are correct and it is is blasphemy to deny the "science" (that doesn't exist).

The politically-convenient pandemic has been characterized by cultist "expert" worship, with strict commandments like "thou must be unemployed, that we mayst flatten the curve", "thou shalt wear masks", and "thou shalt not leave thy house, lest ye smite grandma".
The "experts" never actually explain why an outbreak is severe in one place and time, while being mild in others.
Take California, please.
During the first wave of the supposedly deadly Chinese disease (the one with a minuscule infection fatality rate), the Beholden state got off fairly lightly.
The cultist's explanation was that DEMOCRAT Governor "Twosome" Newsom had done a good job of locking down the state.
Except that similar lockdowns had done nothing to help DEMOCRAT-dominated deep Blue New York.
But once the numbers declined in New York, DEMOCRAT Cuomo and his media pals (including his kid brother) began crediting the governor's lockdown.
But when the numbers started rising again, Cuomo tried to blame the Jews.
Back in California, which is now an epicenter of the pandemic despite a largely-leftist population that fervently believes in huge government control, the "experts" and the cultist media are trying more excuses to explain the failure of their faith healing efforts.
"Experts say a variety of factors combined to wipe out the past efforts, which for much of the year held the virus to manageable levels. Cramped housing, travel and Thanksgiving gatherings contributed to the spread, along with the public’s fatigue amid regulations that closed many schools and businesses and encouraged — or required — an isolated lifestyle".
... Experts say.
California housing didn't get any more cramped all of a sudden. If anything, there's been an exodus from California. It's so bad in the progressive paradise that illegals are reportedly sneaking back across the border to Mexico.
The Thanksgiving surge didn't happen. The numbers were rising well before that.
So, the honest answer here would be that the "experts" don't actually seem to know. But that's not possible, the cultists cry!
The "experts" are the infallible oracles of supreme scientism.
So, as usual, the experts blame the "little people" people for not obeying their commandments.
Meanwhile, the "experts", like "Twosome Newsom", DEMOCRAT De Blasio, Fredo Cuomo, and High Priestess of the COVID Cult Birx, were caught violating the cult's commandments - which indicates to me that they know their rules are all bullshit.
But this isn't about science, it's about political power.
But, the cultists shriek "Crowded houses and apartments are often cited as a source of spread, particularly in Los Angeles, which has some of the densest neighborhoods in the U.S. Households in and around LA often have several generations — or multiple families — living under one roof. Those tend to be lower-income areas where residents work essential jobs that can expose them to the virus at work or while commuting."
Unfortunately, the data shows that LA is much less dense than New York; so how come it's in worse shape?
It appears to the unbeliever that the COVID cult "experts" have no clue about how to fight the China virus.
The only thing they know how to do is try to control people.
As elitists, they smugly assume that their citizens are too stupid to make their own choices and someone has to force them to comply with their unproven remedies.
Fighting human behavior just means spending a lot of time scolding people and penalizing them if they don't obey.
That's still all they can do. They have no answers.
And when that doesn't work, they claim it's because people weren't being controlled strictly enough.

How many right wingers insist on being non-Covid cultists and go maskless to super spreader events?

Are you dodging the question because you don't know the answer, or because you do, COVID Cultist?

Not my job to guess. I have hoards of the best experts in the relevant fields that tell us it helps.
You organize mops in a hospital closet. Your opinion is as meaningless as mine, except you are foolish
enough to defy professionals and I am smart enough to believe them.
Not a dodge, that's my honest answer.
Here is a Q back for you, what nefarious purpose do you think is gained by your implied conspiracy that Fauci et al are lying to us?
Or on the other hand, do you consider them incompetent. In the latter case, compare you CV to his so we can evaluate.

Exactly the correct rhetorical Q. Lets assume all else is equal, what is the harm if they are wrong compared to the harm if the experts are wrong?
And as a practical matter, Republicans run on the hideous side in the face department. Masks are an aesthetic benefit for them. Heck, they might even get laid.
CRap, what am I saying. That leads to breeding their young.
