    Question When will DEMOCRATS start claiming they "conquered COVID"?

    Cases are down 77% over the past six weeks. If a medication slashed cases by 77%, we’d call it a miracle pill. Why is the number of cases plummeting much faster than experts predicted?

    In large part because natural immunity from prior infection is far more common than can be measured by testing.

    Testing has been capturing only from 10% to 25% of infections, depending on when during the pandemic someone got the virus. Applying a time-weighted case capture average of 1 in 6.5 to the cumulative 28 million confirmed cases would mean about 55% of Americans have natural immunity.

    Medical experts privately agreed with my prediction that there may be very little Covid-19 by April but suggested that I not talk publicly....

    Corona is not beaten. The Dems are following what the medical profession wants. That angers Repubs. What do doctors know compared to Jones and Breitbart? The Dems are aware that new varients may change the whole program. They also know vaccines are our best hope. They are following the medical guidelines.
    Dems simply do not say the Trump virus is conquered. That is why they are pushing vaccines masks and social distancing. This is a typical flat-out dishonest thread from legion.

    You said the exact same thing last year, hot shot. Remember that Covid was no worse than the common flu?

    My daughter recently tested positive. Was sick for a week. Symptoms pretty much like a normal nasty flu. She did lose her ability to taste and smell for a few days though. Gone now,.... no symptoms. Her job made her take off 14 days, which was really only ten work days but they paid her for the time off.

    That's the prognosis for nearly all people who get ill from the Chinese disease, according to SCIENCE™.

    Some people are too stupid to grasp that when Testing is down that Cases will be down. Heck trump even understood that when you do not test you do not find cases that is why he wanted it slowed or stopped. Right now we have several new strains one of which is far more contagious and if we let our guard down right now those number will shoot right back up. Get everyone vaccinated so we really have some immunity and reduce the rate of mutation in the virus and until them wear a mask and keep your distance from others, to do otherwise is to end up back right where we started.

    Is that what SCIENCE™ told you, or did you just make it up?

    Was the strain that killed over 500,000 Americans trumps virus? And before you go there I have never called it the China Virus, trump virus or Italian virus, it is simply a virus.

    It is a virus and does not give a crap what your political stand is, the virus prefers stupid people that ignore science, plain and simple.
