      ... did you read your own article?

      The 22 states surrounding Vermont are all experiencing a 10% rise in COVID cases due to the highly contagious COVID-19D variant. Many Americans have become careless about this pandemic after reading false information that the worst is over.

      "Vermont is one of 22 states, many of them with colder temperatures, that has seen an uptick in daily cases of 10% or more in the last two weeks, according to an analysis of CDC and Health and Human Services data.

      Here’s Dr. Jan Carney, associate dean for public health and health policy at the University of Vermont’s Larner College of Medicine, per ABC News:
      “Across the United States and in Vermont, we’re seeing the impact of the highly contagious delta variant. It really is so contagious, it seeks out pretty much every unvaccinated person.” "

        Actually there are at least 4 human corona viruses 229E, NL63, OC43 and HKU1 that are often diagnosed as the common cold. They were first identified in the mid 1960s.

          HHS withdraws Trump administration policy that limited FDA review of certain Covid-19 tests


          The Biden administration is withdrawing a policy established under the Trump administration that limited the US Food and Drug Administration's review process of certain lab tests, including some Covid-19 tests. The US Department of Health and Human Services announced the withdrawal on Monday.

          Last year, the Trump administration determined that the FDA would no longer require premarket review of laboratory-developed tests, known as LDTs. Prior to that determination, laboratories were required to submit applications to develop and use their own Covid-19 tests. But the move to limit that process meant that makers of Covid-19 tests developed by certain labs -- such as Quest Diagnostics, LabCorp or those at academic medical centers -- could distribute their tests without the need to first submit documentation for review by the FDA before they were marketed.

          "The policy directed FDA not to require premarket review for LDTs, including premarket approval (PMA) or clearance (510(k)), and emergency use authorization (EUA), even in situations where they have poor performance. By withdrawing the policy, HHS is helping to ensure that COVID-19 tests work as intended. Effective today, HHS no longer has a policy on LDTs that is separate from FDA's longstanding approach in this area," HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra said in a statement Monday.

          "The FDA remains committed to helping to increase the availability of tests that will have the biggest impact on the nation's ongoing COVID-19 testing needs, such as at-home and point-of-care diagnostic tests that can be produced in high volumes," Shuren said in part. "By focusing our review on these types of tests, and helping to ensure that available tests have appropriate oversight, we can better respond to the pandemic as the nation's testing needs continue to evolve."

            Covid cases in the U.S. plateaued between 70,000 and 75,000 per day
            Monday nightThe News with Shepard Smith
            The exceedingly contagious delta variant will also thrive if Covid cases remain elevated in the U.S., affecting both the unvaccinated and the vaccinated with waning immunity, Fauci said.





            But vaccines for the unimmunized, boosters for the vaccinated and facial coverings in indoor settings could help keep the virus at bay over the coming months and avoid outbreaks similar to those currently plaguing Europe, Fauci said. The continent recorded roughly 2.1 million new Covid cases in the last week, a surge the World Health Organization blames on the decreased use of masks and social distancing.


            Certain regions across the U.S. are driving up infections more than others, according to Hopkins data. The weekly average of daily new cases per capita rose in the Midwest and Northeast by 31% and 19%, respectively, as of Monday, compared with a 12% increase in the South and an 8% increase in the West.

                  Many of those who are immune never had SARS-CoV-2. They may have developed antibodies to all human corona viruses at some point in the past after exposure to one of the other 6 related human corona viruses.

                        (CNN)Key decisions on whether all adults will be eligible for a Covid-19 vaccine booster could come soon.

                        The US Food and Drug Administration is currently considering Pfizer and BioNTech's request to amend the emergency use authorization for their Covid-19 vaccine so that all adults would be eligible for a booster shot; Dr. Peter Marks, director of the FDA'S Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, told CNN the request was the center's "highest priority."

                        On Tuesday, the agency confirmed its vaccine advisers, the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee, will not be convened to consider the booster EUA decision -- which means the FDA's authorization decision could come any time

                          Pfizer asked the F.D.A. to approve its Covid pill, which studies found greatly reduced the risk of severe infection. The U.S. plans to buy enough for 10 million people.

                            The U.S. is going to spend WAY more money than they need to! There are already 2 medications in existence that are MUCH cheaper, and have the same, or better, effectiveness as this new "covid pill".

                            -Ivermectin (manufactured by Merck, has existed for nearly 80 years) costs around 30 dollars for a 20 day regimen, and is about 50 - 60% effective at preventing death once symptoms have started.

                            -Hydroxychloroquine (the cheapest drug on the market, and has been used for nearly 70 years) costs around 40 dollars for 100 doses! Multiple studies across the globe have shown it to be anywhere from 45 - 96% effective at preventing death depending on how early it's administered! This is verified on the NIH (Fauci's place) website.

                            Conclusion from National Library of Medicine/ National Institutes of Health (Fauci's Place) review of 43 Hydroxychloroquine studies:

                            HCQ has been shown to have consistent clinical efficacy for COVID-19 when it is provided early in the outpatient setting; in general, it appears to work better the earlier it is provided. Overall, HCQ is effective against COVID-19. There is no credible evidence that HCQ results in worsening of COVID-19. HCQ has also been shown to be safe for the treatment of COVID-19 when responsibly used.
                            Hydroxychloroquine is effective, and consistently so when provided early, for COVID-19: a systematic review - NIH website


                            -The new "Covid Pill" will cost roughly 700 dollars per treatment and is only about 50% effective at preventing death!
                            The company is hoping to rake in over 7 BILLION dollars for this "new drug", making it one of, if not, THE most lucrative "money making" drug on the planet......

                                -Ivermectin is an ORAL TABLET (taken by mouth), and sometimes comes in chewable tablet form.

                                Ivermectin has had an immeasurably beneficial impact in improving the lives and welfare of billions of people throughout the world.
                                It has also been used to successfully overcome several other human diseases and new uses for it are continually being found. Several extensive reports, including reviews authored by us (NIH), have been published detailing the events behind the discovery, development and commercialization of the avermectins and ivermectin.
