If bureaucrats like the lizard Fauci were running the show back in the 1950's yes for sure polio would still be around. Those people back then were competent and not financially compromised by foreign governments as our bureaucrats are.

The United States recorded 79,310 new cases of COVID-19 on Friday, according to Johns Hopkins University. The number is the highest in the world, exceeding recorded totals from Indonesia (54,000), the United Kingdom (51,949), and Brazil (45,591), and doubling that of India (38,079). The spiking case number matches the level hit in October 2020, a record at the time, though it would not remain so for long. Despite the effectiveness of multiple vaccines against the virus, vaccine hesitancy is fueling “a pandemic of the unvaccinated,” according to CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky. The vast majority of all patients currently hospitalized with COVID-19 are unvaccinated, according to the CDC.

What Biden accused FB of was NOT causing the surge but of publishing so many lies about the virus that the Biden goal for July was not met.

The illegitimate treasonous government wants to use covid to again steal the next election and they don't want you to talk or find out ever they have done previously @ PCR false positive test scandal. They stole an election and have already suppressed so much information ahead of last election on for example the Hunter Biden Joe Biden pay to play scheme with China in the millions, the pedo material on Hunter's laptop, his drug use and photos of it, the millions they made in their racketeering game, all of it. They banned the new York times through Twitter in a corporate fascist move. They've spied on political opponents. They've targeted political opponents through the IRS and justice department shed FBI,.. they've abused FISA warrants and so much more.

To those of you who swore an oath to the constitution, do not let this continue.

The courts must act, even if they get targeted by leftist terrorists and their backers..
