That's what I was thinking.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong, however my understanding is that the current so-called vaccine only protects for the one variant, whereas Natural Immunity protects from the original and gives the body the ability to recognize and fight variants as many other parts of the original that is in the mutated variant has not changed, etc. God Bless

Sometimes. It depends on what the mutation changed in the virus.

You know, this isn't rocket science. As we move into the colder months, people in the states that see winter weather and much colder temperatures tend to spend more time indoors, while people in states like Florida spend more time outdoors where the weather is nice.

The opposite is true during the warmer summer months, where people in Florida and the South were probably spending more time indoors in air conditioned spaces. It's a story as old as time. Viruses spread easier indoors.

While I agree with you: Viruses spread easier indoors... Don't be too quick to completely discount policy differences between Florida and other states. The rates of transmission dropped significantly in Florida even relative to other warm climate states.

And relative to Puerto Rico as well. Assuming that is Puerto Rico below Texas there.

NIH Director Cannot Explain Why Florida Has Lowest COVID Infection Rate in Nation, Apparently The Result Defies The Acceptable Science

National Institutes of Health Director Dr. Francis Collins appeared on Fox News today to push the panic button around the latest COVID variant, Omicron. Dr. Collins was pushing the vaccine hard as he explained why Americans need to be concerned about the latest variant.

Vaccines, and now double and triple booster shots, are the acceptable scientific approach to combating the arriving Omicron variant, which Collins’ protege Dr. Fauci has warned could lead to a new round of lockdowns, mask mandates and social distancing requirements from federal and state officials.

However, in the face of all the panic promotion, NIH Director Collins was asked to reconcile why Florida, the most open and free state in the nation – that does not have any COVID mandates in place, would also have the lowest infection rate in the country. Dr. Collins refused to answer the question, and instead repeated his rehearsed talking points.

It is very telling -in a weird way- how the NIH Director would not answer the question. In fact, he avoided it completely. WATCH (Prompted):

Have you all noticed that all this talk of "herd immunity" from the powers-that-be has stopped?

They went from saying that 50% or 60% of the population would have to be vaccinated or get Covid and recover and then proceeded to gradually and sneakily up those numbers until it was around 90% but I realized there has been little talk of herd immunity now for months.

Why is that?

They no longer care what the herd thinks.

I think you know the answer...
The evidence coming out of highly vaccinated places has proven that you cannot attain herd immunity from the vaccines.

The number I always heard was 70%.

Gee, I wonder...

President Potato repeatedly calling Omicron "Omnicron" in a press conference today, then that greasy little toad Fauchi comes up after he speaks and also calls it "Omnicron" so he doesn't make his brain-dead boss look bad

Biden says Omicron variant WILL come to U.S. but is NOT a 'cause for panic': President says lockdowns and travel bans won't be necessary if Americans get vaccinated, booster shots and wear masks (after calling strain 'Omnicron'!)

Omnicron is one of the Transformers, right?

I don't think so. Pretty sure Omicron said: Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!

It’s all about the vaccine. Makes you wonder if Hunter is getting a commission.

Because politicians cannot buy "herd immunity" stock

And another federal court rules against another Biden vaccine mandate - this time for health-care workers
Alex Berenson

https://alexberenson.substack....les-against/comments

“Plaintiffs are likely to succeed in establishing that the CMS vaccine mandate is arbitrary and capricious.”

Those are the words of federal Judge Matthew T. Schelp of the Eastern District of Missouri in a 32-page opinion devastating the Biden Adminstration’s effort to force health-care workers to be vaccinated.

Today’s ruling, in a lawsuit brought by Missouri and other states, issues a preliminary injunction against the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services mandate.

The CMS mandate now joins Biden’s broader OSHA mandate on the chopping block. For now, it applies only in the 10 states that brought the lawsuit, including Iowa, Missouri, and New Hampshire.

Jiminy Cricket, could these assholes be any more obvious? Do they really think we can't see them standing there naked?

The original “vaccine” isn’t going to provide any protection against the latest variant as the new variant doesn’t have spikes (like the original did)

Anyone recommending “another booster” is an idiot.

I think we should all get the needles permanently attached to our bodies.

Israeli minister: Sanction those who do not take COVID vaccine

https://www.jpost.com/israel-n...covid-vaccine-687276

Cohen said he would support measures including potentially partial lockdowns or fines, saying that unvaccinated people “endanger others.”

An Israeli minister has said that he will support slapping sanctions on anyone who refuses to take a COVID-19 vaccine, similar to moves being made in Austria and Germany.
“I strongly support imposing sanctions on the non-vaccinated,” Labor, Social Affairs and Social Services Minister Meir Cohen said in an interview on Israel’s morning news. “The moment will come when we have to raise the level of sanctions. If we reach a situation where we have to make such a decision, I will support [the sanctions].”

To date, there are around 600,000 eligible Israelis who have still not received their first shot and about a million others who have not yet gotten a booster. The majority of patients in serious condition in Israel’s hospitals are unvaccinated. Some 50% of new daily cases are children and most of the rest are people who have either not been inoculated or are no longer fully vaccinated.
