No can't be.
I thought Trump's rallies were the only.. " super spreader " events ( even tho they weren't ).

Oh you mean the 3 vaccines and multiple alternative treatments that Trump ok'd during his term that Biden failed to institute properly?
Remember Biden and kneepads got their 1st shot and booster during Trump's term.

The evidence is in. We were right. Liberals were wrong.

The COVID debate is over: New York was wrong, Florida was right

The lockdowns were a mistake to begin with

... you are missing the point. COVID has not gone away and in many places infection rates are increasing. What is different is that if you are at least double vaccinated your chances of serious illness have dropped significantly and any symptoms you do display will likely have only mild effects on your body.

Vaccinations were never going to be about eliminating COVID. It is always going to be present in society. COVID vaccinations are about reducing the likelihood of a person requiring serious medical care.

.., the other point, is that the media tends to magnify brief moments in time. What you might see published and viewed repeatedly, likely originally occurred for just a few seconds.

You can bet your last dollar that nobody gets close to the President and Vice President who is not triple vaccinated and COVID tested.

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus

Democrats are planning to lock the country down right after the midterms.

3. Coronavirus
Philadelphia has become the first major US city to reinstate indoor mask mandates to help curb the rising number of Covid-19 cases in the city. The mandates, which go back into effect on April 18, will require Philadelphians to wear masks in all indoor public places, including schools, businesses, restaurants and government buildings. The number of people hospitalized in Philadelphia is low, but yesterday's case count was more than 50% higher than it was 10 days ago, averaging 142 cases per day. Meanwhile, pressure is building in China as Shanghai, a city of 25 million, remains on lockdown where no one is allowed to leave their residential compounds, even to buy food.

Studies continue to prove Ivermectin for COVID-19 treatment ineffectual

Studies continue to prove ivermectin for COVID-19 treatment ineffectual (news-medical.net)


Since corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) first emerged, healthcare workers have been frustrated by the lack of effective treatments. Patients who progress to severe disease are given supplemental oxygen or need to receive invasive mechanical ventilation, but early on very few drugs could help infected individuals.

Unfortunately, there have been constant rumors about drugs that later prove to be ineffective – hydrochloroquine received significant media attention. Researchers from hospitals around Malaysia have been looking into the efficacy of the controversial drug Ivermectin.

The study

High-risk patients were enrolled in the randomized clinical trial at 20 different government hospitals across Malaysia, including a COVID-19 quarantine center. As all COVID-19 cases in Malaysia must be reported to health authorities, patients who are at risk of progression to severe disease are referred for hospitalization or quarantine centers for closer monitoring. These patients were then enrolled in the study if they met certain criteria, including a positive reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test, at least one comorbidity, and if they were at least 50 years old.

Asymptomatic patients and those who had progressed to the point of needing supplemental oxygen or showed other risk signs for severe disease were excluded, as were those who had taken any drugs reported to be effective against COVID-19 within the last seven days.

Following randomization, the patients in the Ivermectin group received 0.4mg/kg ivermectin for five days, calculated to the nearest 6mg or 12mg whole tablet dose. This was administered with or after food. The primary outcome investigated was the progression to severe disease – which was determined to be the point at which the patient required supplemental oxygen, but other factors were also investigated, including time of progression to severe disease, mortality rates, admission to intensive care units and rates of adverse and serious adverse events, among others.

Statistical analysis was performed to determine any efficacy or danger to patients following administration, with sensitivity analyses for all patients. Means and standard deviations were used for descriptive data, while categorical data were analyzed using the Fisher exact test and continuous variables tested using either the t-test or Mann-Whitney U test. Risk ratios were used to estimate primary and categorical secondary outcomes.

In total, the study included 500 patients, investigated between May and October 2021. Following randomization, four patients were excluded due to failure to meet inclusion criteria or extensive comorbidities such as dengue co-infection and acute coronary syndrome. Six more patients withdrew consent. Out of the 490 remaining patients, 249 were enrolled in the control group, and 241 were given doses of Ivermectin. 232 of these finished all five doses. The average age of participants was 62.5, and men and women were roughly equally represented. 51.8% of patients were fully vaccinated. Many had co-morbidities including hypertension, diabetes and obesity.

Out of the 490 patients included in the final analysis, 95 progressed to severe disease during the study. Fifty-two of these had received the standard treatment as well as Ivermectin, and 43 had received standard of care. As these numbers suggest, statistical analysis revealed no significant differences between ivermectin and control groups, and this trend continued when examining secondary outcomes. In patients who progressed to severe disease, the Ivermectin groups took 3.2 days to progress to severe disease compared to 2.9 for the control groups. There were no significant differences between groups when examining mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit admission either. The 28-day in-hospital mortality rate was also very similar for both groups, as was the mean length of hospital stay. Finally, the pathology of both groups showed no distinct differences.

When examining adverse events the scientists found that 55 had occurred in 44 different patients – a rate of 9%. Thirty-three of these patients were from the ivermectin group. Most were relatively mild, but five events were serious adverse events, including severe anemia, hypovolemic shock, and two myocardial infarctions in the ivermectin group. Only one serious adverse event occurred in the control group – the patient suffered from inferior epigastric arterial bleeding. While there were a total of 13 deaths, none of these were attributed to ivermectin treatment.

Conclusion

The research has found no evidence for the efficacy of Ivermectin for patients at risk of progressing to severe COVID-19.

This is supported by multiple other studies that have shown no effect on disease outcomes. While initial media attention to the drug has led many to believe that it can prevent disease, there have been very few studies to show any positive effect, and there is significant controversy surrounding the robustness and replicability of those papers. Therefore, this study may allow researchers to focus on more promising candidates in the future.

This is just one example of the fear that the righties are pushing. If you care to look at what Slim and Phil post, most of it is the fear that the right wing media and politicians are pushing.

To me the democrats locking down the country again is fear. We are resisting the fear. At least that is how I feel.
