U.S. Covid-19 Projections Paint A Grim Picture For 2022 And A Possible Political Disaster For President Biden And Democrats

Stephen Collinson, CNN: Fauci's new 2022 timeline for Covid fight could be a political disaster for Biden and Democrats 

(CNN)President Joe Biden just got some deeply unwelcome news: The pandemic that he was elected to end could drag on deep into a midterm election year, with all the political and economic destruction that could bring. 

The warning by the government's top infectious diseases expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, that the crisis won't be under control until spring of next year -- and even then, it will need most American vaccine skeptics to change their minds -- came as a severe jolt to a weary nation. 

It also meant that Biden's best-laid plans of triumphing over the pandemic and riding an economic wave into the campaign for congressional election results in November next year now look at risk. 

A pandemic that stretches through another grim winter and beyond risks slowing the economic recovery on which Biden is relying for a strong performance next year. It could demoralize the public and trigger the kind of sour mood among the electorate that always spells danger for incumbents. Already, the President's personal approval ratings and public confidence in his management of the pandemic have been ebbing, according to recent NBC and CBS polls. 

Biden's partial declaration of victory over the virus on July Fourth looks highly premature -- as do earlier US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention relaxations of mask guidance.

Update: Dr. Fauci says no end to COVID pandemic before spring 2022 — at the earliest (NYDaily News)  

WNU Editor: In the past week there has been two days where Covid-19 deaths surpassed 1,000 on each day (U.S. Covid stats are here). 

Over 240,000 Americans have died since President Biden's inauguration, and if current trends continue it will easily surpass the number of Covid-19 deaths during President Trump's term by spring 2022. 

President Biden and the Democrat Party ran on a platform in 2020 that they would handle the pandemic better than President Trump and the Republicans. It looks like this is a promise that they are not going to keep.

I usually disagree with the above CNN's Stephen Collinson, but I agree with his analysis that if the Covid pandemic continues into 2022, this will become a political disaster for the President Biden and Democrats. 

As to what is my take on there being another destructive Covid wave in 2022. 

During this pandemic I have become a student on the history of pandemics. I certainly have read enough books on the subject to feel that I have a better than average knowledge on what we are facing. 

Bottom line. 

Global pandemics like the Spanish in 1918 last an average two to three years. This means we are probably more than half-way finished in this one.

@wnu did you see the ceo of pfizer came out against his own vaccines, finally admitting they cause the delta variant?

It's highly relevant to national security as if they keep vaccinating people they'll create more resistant strains.

Just like with bacteria. You cannot vaccinate your way out of this, just like you create antibiotics resistant bacteria, they're doing this globally with the vaccines bow. These people are beyond reckless. This is a crime against humanity.

The FDA gives in to pressure from the Biden administration and skips further trials omfg Haha they're literally killing you.. and they'll try to vaccinate me too if not more of you get it.. the government is in free fall and to save their necks they're ignoring the absolutely scary side effects of the vaccines that could cause killer strains, weaken your immune system and cause women to have menstrual cycle changes and some people lose their eyes (retina detaches), infertility, autoimmune disease.. these people are beyond reckless.. and they push at the same time communism Marxism and collective health, not individual health choice.. because of the fcking WEF and their neoMarxist ideology, they're insane murderers

You cannot understand unemployment merely by looking at U3. You have to look at U3, U6 and labor force participation rate.

There is no pandemic. The CDC will have a trivalent test assay. It will test for COVID, flu and something else. Once that hits sometime after the start of the new year. the number swill be quite different and hard questions will be asked.

There will be people who test positive for influenza and corona. so what actually killed them. Will the public be happy about closing the economy down for flu?

Also, Dr. Marlone now, the inventor of the mRNA technology screams to end this madness, that is risking the entire western World

Editor,

Your analysis on how long pandemics typically seems spot on. I've studied them as well and this is my observation as well.

If this isn't a bio-weapon, I agree most likely we're more than half way through. If it's a bio-weapon, historical analysises may not hold. So far the leadership class isn't acting like they think it's a bio-weapon.

Don’t get vaccine
Then die
Dems will win with votes from vaccinated living

fred said...

Tell us the name of vaccine used for spanish flu
There was none

Truth is Mr. Fred Lapides is that since COVID the Democrats have not needed the living or the dead to win elections.

Got a better source? I like gp but it's hardly accurate or unbiased.

I think they'r killing off the dumb, obese, authoritarian, and elderly. The vaccines are clearly an IQ test. If all the novel prize winners AND the ex VP of Pfizer and the current CEO Z of Pfizer basically admit these vaccines are starting to be a bad idea, and you keep taking them, then that's 100% Darwin test survival of the fittest mentally speaking.
And the fact that Fred defends the vaccines tells toy everything right there. That guy was so often wrong on this blog it's almost a tool for me to see what's reality.
Good luck Fred, you know that if you take the booster your chances of dying are astronomical. Who says so? The ex VP of Pfizer, and a bunch of other scientists but you don't care.

Good luck, little parrot, you'll be missed and I'll make sure the people who tricked you will hang.

They talked about culling the human population for decades. Bill Gates on video jokes about using vaccines for depopulating earth to help with climate change and his audience laughs, they don't realise they're actually doing it. To them. To all of us.

I'm not a vaccine skeptic. I am vaccinated against several diseases also because I spent a lot of time travelling in Asia.

Don't be stupid. Just Google and research a bit. It's all out there.

And it's not hard to understand webby they do it either. The governments took on huge liabilities on behalf of these pharma companies. The entire administration will be driven out for what they keep doing, it's too big of a crime and the "skeptics" are the top scientists, nobel prize winners, inventors of the actual technologies used, former and now even current top Pfizer management, and their numbers ARE GROWING

This administration is in free fall.

The vaccines don’t confer immunity to viruses which can escape immunity, so those 50 percent of the US population fully vaccinated are back at square one. They’re vulnerable to variants which have been around since last October, and probably before. "An analysis of more than 50,000 real-life SARS-CoV-2 genomes isolated from patient samples further showed that most of these virus mutations were already circulating, albeit at very low levels in the infected human populations. These results show that SARS-CoV-2 can mutate its spike proteins to evade antibodies, and that these mutations are already present in some virus mutants circulating in the human population." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33112236/ That's 50,000 variants, since October 2020. There are likely to be a lot more by now.

It doesn't matter if you're vaccinated or not, if you don't have natural T-cell immunity, you're not going to be immune to new variants. The vaccines all focus on the spike protein, and there are - as of three months ago - over 1400 variants in the US alone which can evade the vaccines. What the vaccines do is filter out the variants for which they're made, so if you get infected with a soup of alpha, wild type, and delta variants as the major components, plus hundreds of other mutations as minor components, the vaccines will filter out the alpha and wild type viruses, and leave the Delta and the rest alone - and *those* will reproduce. The dominant strain will then, by natural selection, be the Delta strain, accompanied by the rest, and those will be spread to others. So let's say we get a Delta booster shot. That filters out the Delta variant, and leaves the rest, including (say) the Lambda variant alone to reproduce, and be spread. So we get a Lambda booster shot, and that takes care of the Lambda, but the Epsilon variant isn't touched, so we need another booster. And this could continue on for 20 years, until the variant names fill the page. On the other hand, natural immunity rules - Emory University School of Medicine: https://www.cell.com/cell-reports-medicine/fulltext/S2666-3791(21)00203-2

Another thing - these vaccines produce spike proteins which get out in the bloodstream, and they produce lots of bad effects - brain fog, myocarditis, inflammation in blood vessels, blood clots, and so on. My bet is that the effects of periodic injections of spike protein-producing mRNA will have cumulative effects, so that mortality from side effects will increase over time. The vaccines are a dead end (excuse the pun).

There are ways to stop the spread - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orRQzZIoq5U - and cheap and easy ways to prevent and treat the infection - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ha2mLz-Xdpg&t=5s and these can be used in a public health context to prevent people from needing this long chain of ineffectual and frankly dangerous vaccines and boosters.

And importantly, they fire nurses and doctors who speak out and don't want the vaccine, creating an artificial staff shortage in the hospitals and then claim they're overrun. They're a criminal cabal!
