We ended the global health emergency, but the #COVID19 pandemic didn't end. We were told we could move on because "we have the tool." The tools:
- Wastewater monitoring so we can adjust behaviors, but most ignore it.
- Masks so we can diminish infection risk, but few will wear them.
- Vaccines so we can reduce the risk of infection and chronic infection, but 75% of you decline to get vaccinated.
It takes so little to be safer. Take care, please.

I don't recall Biden ever "dismissing the pandemic". Even during '24, they encouraged masking and held fewer rallies.
There was no longer the same hyper-vigilant need to protect people from #Covid in '24 that there was in 2020.
It is only b/c we are no longer seeing thousands of new infections per day in the U.S. that permits #Bernie & #AOC to host those rallies (where masking is not discouraged... or worse, mocked.)
DO NOT compare The Left to The Right on ANY issue around me.
@MugsysRapSheet Biden declared the Pandemic over, even as the virus continued to mutate and surge twice a year. He claimed we'd have a "winter of severe illness and death for the unvaccinated," well after it was known the vaccinated could be reinfected and get Long COVID.
The Left doesn't blindly support its leaders like MAGA does. We care about truth and facts. I am a hard leftie who votes Democrat, but I won't lie and pretend Biden didn't dismiss COVID dangers.
@augieray
Your bar for "dismissing #Covid" seems extremely low.
Yes, vaccinated people can still catch #Covid. But that number is extraordinarily low. You have a better chance of dying from the flu.
The people you should be most upset with are #DonnieDumbass' Flying Monkeys who viewed ANY steps to control Covid an attack upon their personal liberty (only to re-elect a man who said he would be a #DictatorOnDayOne, ignoring #DueProcess, building Gulags, and putting armed troops on our streets.)
