“Do not listen to powers that be who pretend that getting infected w/ COVID multiple times is now no big deal. They’re asking you to lower your guard for a nasty virus that can invade the brain, disregulate the immune system and damage the vascular system” https://thetyee.ca/Analysis/2022/12/21/Ten-Downplayed-COVID-Facts/
Ten COVID Facts Health Officials Dangerously Downplay | The Tyee

We should be rallied to defend ourselves and our kids. Our leaders offer timid silence.

@taylorlorenz Also important to mention that the immunity obtained from catching COVOD lasts only as long as that given by current vaccines. So much less disrupting to get vaccine than to get COVID. (this has been repeated by WHO many times, and I know the USA has been politically conditioned to dismisse what WHO or Fauci say, but rest of the world listens).
@jfmezei @taylorlorenz 1/3rd of our country is in a competition with the rest of the world to be the stupidest people on earth. They believe an orange con-man or some idiots on the internet over the advice of Dr’s & scientists who spent their lives studying viruses. It was literally killing them and they still refused medical advice. Even wearing a mask is too oppressive for them. It’s amazing
@twitterreject @taylorlorenz Tghis is why that in a democracy, people elect leaders and not comedians who like to create issues that get "ratings" up. A political leader would have told people the stories of vaccines killing people, making you magnetic etc were hogwash, and that masks really protect and that COVID was a serious disease, not "the flue". By the time Biden got in, it was too late because the conspiracy theories became "fact" in the MAGA cult.
@jfmezei @taylorlorenz there’s a recording of the orange beast telling a reporter (bob woodward) how it’s so much worse than the flu and is terrible from Jan 2020. It was February when he started his campaign of lies and minimizing the threat that caused an estimated 300,000 more deaths. And the reporter said nothing bc he was saving it for his book to be released over a year later.
@jfmezei Ironic that the country that literally did elect a comedian ended up with arguable the greatest world leader today.
@mike By making comedy of politics before, Zelensky knew what NOT to do once elected.
@jfmezei Well, we're in danger of generalizing from a sample of one, but it does seem that actual comedians make good politicians.
