Nolte: Howard Stern Proves Democrats Want Unvaccinated Trump Voters Dead
Do you want to know why I think Howard Stern is going full-monster with his mockery of three fellow human beings who died of the coronavirus? Because leftists like Stern and CNNLOL and Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi and Anthony Fauci are deliberately looking to manipulate Trump supporters into not...

No words.
But you know ‘wokeism’ and ‘political correctness’ are the real issues in this country.

No hospital figures reported for today, last Sunday’s late revealed total was 43
All settings - for the 28 day cut off, 56 deaths were announced today, down 108 on yesterday and the exact same total as last Sunday. The 7 day rolling average remains the same at 143.29
For the 60 day cut off, 64 deaths were announced today, down 137 on yesterday and down 2 on last Sunday. The 7 day rolling average falls very slightly to 166.57

assuming the article is satire?
Nope, just Breitbart finally beginning to realise they are killing their own readership and doing mental gymnastics to figure out how to blame it on “the libs”
Pure cognitive dissonance.
I thought we were the sheep? That the right was all about freedom and personal choice?
Could it be their freedom fetish is so obsessive that they ignore actual science and evidence because they feel like they are being told what to do?
I really wasn’t prepared for it to go so far that the people who claim others are sheep would pay to take meds made for sheep rather than a safe, free, effective vaccine but here we are unfortunately

Conclusions
As for the vast majority of human viruses, the most parsimonious explanation for the origin of SARS-CoV-2 is a zoonotic event. The documented epidemiological history of the virus is comparable to previous animal market-associated outbreaks of coronaviruses with a simple route for human exposure. The contact tracing of SARS-CoV-2 to markets in Wuhan exhibits striking similarities to the early spread of SARS-CoV to markets in Guangdong, where humans infected early in the epidemic lived near or worked in animal markets. Zoonotic spillover by definition selects for viruses able to infect humans. Although strong safeguards should be consistently employed to minimize the likelihood of laboratory accidents in virological research, those laboratory escapes documented to date have almost exclusively involved viruses brought into laboratories specifically because of their known human infectivity.There is currently no evidence that SARS-CoV-2 has a laboratory origin. There is no evidence that any early cases had any connection to the WIV, in contrast to the clear epidemiological links to animal markets in Wuhan, nor evidence that the WIV possessed or worked on a progenitor of SARS-CoV-2 prior to the pandemic. The suspicion that SARS-CoV-2 might have a laboratory origin stems from the coincidence that it was first detected in a city that houses a major virological laboratory that studies coronaviruses. Wuhan is the largest city in central China with multiple animal markets and is a major hub for travel and commerce, well connected to other areas both within China and internationally. The link to Wuhan therefore more likely reflects the fact that pathogens often require heavily populated areas to become established (Pekar et al., 2021).
We contend that although the animal reservoir for SARS-CoV-2 has not been identified and the key species may not have been tested, in contrast to other scenarios there is substantial body of scientific evidence supporting a zoonotic origin. Although the possibility of a laboratory accident cannot be entirely dismissed, and may be near impossible to falsify, this conduit for emergence is highly unlikely relative to the numerous and repeated human-animal contacts that occur routinely in the wildlife trade. Failure to comprehensively investigate the zoonotic origin through collaborative and carefully coordinated studies would leave the world vulnerable to future pandemics arising from the same human activities that have repeatedly put us on a collision course with novel viruses.

That’s an extraordinary statistic

When you consider the size of the population and the way deaths are reported (positive within 28 days) that statistic is even more staggering. We know there are breakthrough cases but many of this 1.2% will be very old and could have died from causes unrelated to covid or simply old age.
