Imbecile, Incompetent, and Covid Fascist Jim Cramer Has Covid

Despite being triple-vaxed. He says he has a mild case.

But... okay, but most people who get omicron have a mild case. He didn't say he had omicron; I'm doing some assuming there.

And his wife is sicker.

CNBC's Jim Cramer said Monday he's tested positive for Covid and isolating at home with a mild case.
"I have Covid. I came down with Covid on Thursday night," Cramer said on "Squawk on the Street." He added he's been triple vaccinated: two shots of Moderna and a Moderna booster.
"I know exactly how I got it," he said. "I was at an event where you had to have PCR [tests]."
"I got it that night from someone who was tested that day," he said. "The problem is it works so fast. You can't stop it.
Cramer said his wife is sicker than he is. "She had J&J and Moderna," he revealed, referring to the Johnson & Johnson Covid vaccine and a Moderna booster shot.

Restating: I think anyone older than, say, mid-29's should be vaxed. But the fact that the vaxed can catch and spread covid demolishes the "we have the power to force you take the vaccine for the sake of other people's health" claim.

Cramer recently doubled down on Covid Fascism.

CNBC host Jim Cramer returned to Twitter on Thursday, doubling down on his controversial take on how the government has the "right" to force citizens to obey in regard to getting vaccinated against the coronavirus.
Cramer received fierce backlash on Wednesday for arguing that the government "has a right" to force citizens to obey it after criticizing Texas Sen. Ted Cruz for rejecting coronavirus vaccine mandates.
"Government has a right to force you to obey and has always exercised it especially under GOP," Cramer wrote on Twitter.
Cramer responded to his critics by claiming that he doesn't have a "pro-vax stand" but that he is only trying to keep people healthy, and anyone who disagrees is "anti-healthy" and "would have been pro-polio."
"I am getting people furious of my pro-vax stand. I don't have a pro-vax stand, i have a stand to keep people healthy. You are anti- healthy if you are against me. YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN PRO -POLIO," Cramer tweeted on Thursday.

The main justification -- or pretext -- for forcing people to take the vaccination is to "protect others," because the vaccinated "cannot spread covid," but obviously that is becoming a less and less persuasive bit of disinformation, despite how many times Brandon repeats it (without media correction).

CNN is now closing down its offices again, for all but essential workers, and doing many shows remotely.

CNN is closing its offices to nonessential workers in a return to early pandemic shutdown measures, the cable station announced Saturday.
Only employees who must work onsite will be allowed in US offices and must be masked up, CNN President Jeff Zucker said in a memo to workers.
"We are doing this out of an abundance of caution," Zucker said in the memo, which was shared with Reuters. "And it will also protect those who will be in the office by minimizing the number of people who are there."

Just days ago, constant covid scold and Mask Javert Fake Jake Tapper posted pictures of himself at a Holiday Sweater Party at the CNN offices, without masks, and without social distancing.

As I pointed out a couple of days ago: He did this despite he himself reading the news every night that omicron was much more infectious than delta and might evade the vaccines. And despite attacking Ted Cruz, and any other Republican, for not practicing perfect masking hygeine.

Because covid never infects Sophisticated, Vaccinated Democrat Crowds, as we've come to learn the Democrat-Media Complex fervently believes the religion they call "The Science" tells them.

(OregonMuse) Update:

(Willowed from rant thread)

414 Hi guys - regarding our dear Tami, both Jane and I have been trying to reach her. This weekend I got a reply back from her husband with the sad news that she passed away unexpectedly from natural causes on 11/29.

Please pray for her family - husband, daughter, son and his wife and their baby boy. As devastated awe are, imagine what it is like for them.

Rest In Peace, sweet Tami. Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord, and let Perpetual Light shine upon her.

76 Think i have Covid now, in the last week about 8 people (out of maybe 60) at work tested positive, i came back negative on Friday but felt a bit achy and just odd. Had a slight fever and headache yesterday. And now today i feel pretty fine. Never felt like debilitating sick, even got in half a workout on Saturday (in my own basement gym)

Everyone at work has to be vaccinated, and I'm sure most had the booster shot (i didn't, and chose to get yhe J&J non- experimental vaccine) so they better not use this as a reason to say everyone must get the booster, because we see that it's complete bullshit and you'll get sick no matter what.

Worst part is i got (presumably) sick right as we started our holiday hiatus. If i was sick 2 weeks ago i would have recieved a 2 week paid vacation.

Posted by: Mad Max in VA at December 20, 2021 12:33 PM (H/wdc)"

It's not even "old and sick"; it's a combination of vitamin D deficiency, a genetic pre-disposition about 15% of NA has, being fat, and not having had exposure to certain cold strains that give cross-immunity.

And, now - being jabbed, which at this point clearly increases your chances of catching it and being hospitalized.

That's how they view everything.

Every issue is judged for its utility - in punishing enemies, destroying traditional society, or eroding the mechanisms of transparency and accountability. Everything is about advancing the cause and gaining power.

Power is not a means to an end, it is the end - unlimited, unrestrained power to live out their sick fantasies and punish anyone that dares to even be seen without their approval.

All. Of. Them.
Posted by: rickb223 at December 20, 2021 12:33 PM (uXonU)

I will say I was one of the first to get the vaccine in group 1. I'm a first responder, in and out of houses with the FD, and before we knew the extent of what would happen, I made the decision to get it to keep the ability to 1. hopefully mitigate aggressive case should I end up in a hot house on a call, and 2. to hopefully be able to handle our two young children in the event anyone in the house got it. It was completely of my own accord to be the test case in the house for this, and I can't say I regretted doing it at the time. Now I'm not as sure as it has become a political ping-pong ball, and I'm not going around telling anyone else their business. Now we are being forced to look at our children and decide to make the case or not. It's all shitty one way or another, but I never thought it would make me "immune" to anything. That's a bludgeon used by those who have nothing better to do than point at others as being the cause for their own misery.

Fauci tried to do the same thing with AIDS.

He hyped it up into something that was going to go airborne and kill your whole family, then tried to push for a vaccine (which the technology of the day couldn't make), then leaned on expensive antivirals (like he did with Remdesivir), and attempted to quash all attempts to push forward cheap therapeutic drugs (as with ivermectin and hcq).

This is a man who understands that a health crisis can be a vehicle to powers alien to our Constitution, and fully intends to use it.

155 "I know exactly how I got it," he said. "I was at an event where you had to have PCR [tests]."

This is exactly why I am against my company's mandated weekly testing for those of us who received an exemption to the vax mandate.

I have been working from home since March 13, 2020. Have not been sick with anything for at least 5 years now and have only been bed-ridden sick for a total of 5 days in the past 22 years. And that was due to either food poisoning of stomach flu 5 years ago. So much immune system is rock solid. And I'll be damned if I have to have my life uprooted, *only* because my company made me get a stupid test and it comes back with some false positive or I end up getting COVID and testing positive for it.

Thankfully, if I am interpreting the lack of communication in the e-mails this week regarding weekly testing for those with exemptions, I am guessing my company got a lot more exemption requests than expected and now are rethinking having to pay that many employees for their weekly tests. If tests cost even $1 and there are 10,000 with exemptions, that's $10,000 per week for tests.

Hi guys - regarding our dear Tami, both Jane and I have been trying to reach her. This weekend I got a reply back from her husband with the sad news that she passed away unexpectedly from natural causes on 11/29.

Please pray for her family - husband, daughter, son and his wife and their baby boy. As devastated as we are, imagine what it is like for them.

Rest In Peace, sweet Tami. Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord, and let Perpetual Light shine upon her.

It's beneficial if the benefit you're looking for is muddying the water to cover your ass.

With "omicron", there is no risk of severe symptoms.

Just as a respectful counterpoint, I'm pro vax in general and got the Covid vaccine (Pfizer) as I have an in-law that was undergoing severe cancer treatment.

I've said this before, but I firmly believe it gave me heart issues. I told my wife my heart had off beat palpitations ever since i was jabbed and that was before it was revealed in the news that it can cause this. I still feel these issues I didn't before, like my heart skipping beats.

Seeing how the Covid vaccine really doesn't seem to do shit to protect you from Covid (I've had countless friends get vaxxed and still get Covid) I would pass if I could do it all over again (and probably just lie I got it if I needed to for work)

In other words, going forward, it will basically be like seasonal influenza. Which tens of millions of people get every year. Some get the flu shot, some don't. 99.99% recover just fine. Some have bad flu experiences, some have mild experiences. All depends on one's immune system. Only difference between flu and COVID is the WEF is using COVID to implement The Great Reset.

I've said this before, but I think there's a good chance that Operation Warp Speed ends up being the worst public health disaster in history. Having lots of family and friends who have had the shots, I don't want that to happen, but I think it's possible. It's looking like we probably aren't facing a worst-case scenario at this point (Marek's disease situation or other ADE), but I think OAS is definitely happening and that heart problems and cancers are going to be exploding over the next few years. Of course, these will be of mysterious origin. Officially, no one will be able to figure out why it happened.

And to all the scientific, analytical, and logical minds out there, I'd like to remind you that there is no way to verify a counterfactual.

The only thing "scientific" about it is that Science assumes a certain sameness of events expected to be similar. Analytically and logically, there is no such thing as a counterfactual statement ("If it had been A instead of B (which it was)") being verified.

Yes, Science does allow for more conjecture than Logic or Analysis.

301 I do NOT believe anyone should get the faux vac - I believe it is medical malpractice, and a complete fraud. I think your chances of complications and death from the faux vac, especially this third one, are far higher than your chances of getting seriously ill from the covid. Will some still die from covid? Or course. More will die and be permanently harmed by this vax.

302 I'm surprised that The Man From U.N.C.L.E., Jason Bourne, or Bond never had a story line with a secret society who would release a worldwide virus, not to make people deathly ill and die in droves (we've seen that), but to make them cower in fear and do whatever the society's front men say.

304 The thing about Warp Speed is that it wasn't.
The shots were ready to be rolled out.
The patents were filed years before the outbreak.
How did that happen?
It happened because the C19 virus had been in development for years, going back to the Obama administration. Same with the "vaccines".
It really is no different than a computer software company creating malware then offering to sell you the fix.

I was comfortable at first with the decision, now I'm pissed off that people will just now assume I did it out of some need to be compliant. Same shit is happening now with my kids- other kids creating "vaccinated" clubs and shit like that is increasing the social pressure on us to vaccinate them, and I'm despondent that between this type of crap that sends my little girl home crying, and the shithead teachers unions in conjunction with harpies in government deciding to make life for parents of unvaxed kids living hell while allowing a pass for vaxxed even though there is empirical evidence that with kids it makes zero difference.

I have been reading about early treatment to prevent hospitalization and apparently just about everything has an effect to prevent some hospitalization, from antihistimines like Cetrizine and acetaminophen (in Spain) to Ivermectin, to D3 to gargling with scope and taking zinc.

Since the prescribed treatment has always been "stay home isolated until you can't breathe" it is seeming that a surprising number of covid fatalities are from medical neglect. And don't get me onto Remdesevir, which was withdrawn for treatment of Ebola because it was too toxic.

328 > I've said this before, but I firmly believe it gave me heart issues. I told my wife my heart had off beat palpitations ever since i was jabbed and that was before it was revealed in the news that it can cause this.

I also got a situation with weird medical issues earlier this year (including heart palpitations), with a milder follow-up in the fall. Oddly enough, I haven't been jabbed -- however, I noticed my wife's vax card this weekend and did the math, and both events were within a couple of weeks from when she got jabbed. I'm guess maybe people shed spike protein the same way they do viral load?

336 And when, when, when will the feckless, useless, dogshit GOP push back on the ridiculous Big Lie of "800,000 dead from Covid."

And, of course, it must always be added that even for the greatly reduced number of "from not with" the vast majority are over 65 and/or very obese/sick. So for anyone but that group, actual risk of death (and track record of death) is either bad flu season or at worst bad flu x 2.

It may be tiresome to repeat but that number sticks in people's heads and is the chief justification for the ongoing Emergency Dictatorship we are experiencing. Yes, even if it WERE 800,000 dead from Covid we still shouldn't throw out the Constitution and our way of life. But it would help even the weak-minded and cowardly to understand what we're giving up (for essentially nothing) if there was concerted and frequent pushback on that awful lie.

337 Here's an illustration of how Science proves more than the logical discipline of Deduction.

In a syllogism, you cannot combine any number of "Some X are Y" (existential) statements to get any valid deductive conclusions.

But Science is the practice of laboring "Some are" statements into a universal assumption, (which is not the same thing as a mechanically valid conclusion) to be altered later, which can be taken as the deductive equivalent of an "All X are Y" statement (global).

NYT released article claiming many drone strikes during Obama and Trump Admins not only were un-successful in killing the intended targets, but killed a lot of innocent civilians.

The unbelievable aspect: Ben Rhodes, Deputy NatDec Advisor for Obama, was interviewed about this moments ago by Andrea Mitchell, on MSLSD. Rhodes was calmly angry about the loss of innocent lives. Then he said that there were so many incorrect drone strikes because no one WAS HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE MISTAKES!!!!!!

Holy Blame-Casting, Batman!! Gee, who approved those strikes in the Obama Admin? The White House National Security Office including failed-novelist Rhodes and then Obama, or rogue Lt. Colonels, or little green men? Rhodes went on to say that the US must be must more cautious about drone strikes, especially ones controlled from "over-the-horizon."

Mitchell of course did not attempt to put any responsibility of accountability onto Rhodes. Sickening.

390 Just as a respectful counterpoint, I'm pro vax in general and got the Covid vaccine (Pfizer) as I have an in-law that was undergoing severe cancer treatment.

I've said this before, but I firmly believe it gave me heart issues. I told my wife my heart had off beat palpitations ever since i was jabbed and that was before it was revealed in the news that it can cause this. I still feel these issues I didn't before, like my heart skipping beats.

Seeing how the Covid vaccine really doesn't seem to do shit to protect you from Covid (I've had countless friends get vaxxed and still get Covid) I would pass if I could do it all over again (and probably just lie I got it if I needed to for work)

By the way the common connection in all of these prophylactics is they are medicines that prevent or treat malaria.

You didn't interpret the science correctly. Many people saw that living on the ragged edge perpetually stoned to near coma levels on opioids. meth and alcohol was the elixir of Life and the Hidden Secret to conquer CoViD.

The problem is, there isn't a published protocol for self-medicating for Fentanyl to combat CoViD, so many people are experimenting for themselves, ergo the increase in Fentanyl fatalities.

414 I wonder what constitutes a mild case? When my husband and I had it, we had barely-more-than-normal sniffles and slightly scratchy throats. The fever was the most consequential symptom because it meant we had to stay away from people and it caused some aches for a couple of nights. We fatigued more easily than usual.

I would assume ours would be considered mild cases. Blood oxygen was fine the whole time. We have no idea if we would have been sicker if we hadn't used ivermectin, but we felt it was a good idea to use any remedies that might help.

You may recall that my husband decided to go to the emergency room, but he was not having any trouble breathing, the scans they gave showed nothing was wrong, and this guy typically goes to the doctor whenever he has a regular cold. (Drives me nuts, but he likes the prescription cough syrup.)

Animal studies of vaccines for similar covid types to the current had to be halted because of vaccine-associated enhanced disease (VAED). Guess how many animal studies were performed before the latest vaccines were introduced?

I think this would kinda fit that the most 'at risk' population for omicron could very well be the people who got the vaccine. The 'early numbers' seem to be telling that tale.

440 The COVID vaccines were generally reported to be somewhere around 90% effective, which is comparable with the best of the other live virus vaccines (MMR, etc). That means that if 150 million Americans receive the jab, you should expect something like *15 million* so-called "breakthrough" infections. In other words, this is business-a-usual for vaccines in general - the only that's different is that we're putting a microscope on this virus vs. what happens with mumps, measles, or rubella.

I worked at a company once which discovered a small glitch in their financials. The CEO invited the accountants to also take a look at the surrounding data -- and it took 7 years to recover once they decided to inspect every last bit of financial data in the system. Sometimes taking the 50,000 foot view is best...

We would be better off without them. They are a self-defending, super sensitive, vindicitve, agenda-pushing propaganda arm of themselves at this point, which, by the by, is exactly the opposite of what an "essential" news network should be.

458 And...
It's no accident they were discouraging antibody tests early on (and continuing). Even post natural infection circulating antibodies do of course wane after several months (even though memory/T cell immunity likely persists years).

But now 2 years into "The Pandemic" a regular AB test on even the prior infected is likely to be "negative." They WANTED to confound the data so as to bury the real numbers on "efficacy" of the vaccine. Same by pushing it on everyone. They are destroying the control group and allowing shoddy studies to say "99% effective" when its largely comprised of the prior infected.

464 430 The vaccines were sold as if you get them you will not get sick and you cannot pass it to anyone else ever. Instead it appears, because it's not like it's possible to get accurate information, that the vaccine helps to lower the odds significantly of a serious case if you get it and that it does fuck all to prevent transmission.

Meanwhile, it is coming up on 2 years since I had it, I have done nothing to protect myself, just lived my life as normally as possible, exercise, take vitamins, refuse the vax, and have attended dozens of "super spreader" events. I haven't been sick with anything in 2 years.

Well certainly a large percentage of the dead in the USA is from nursing homes, including the four governors who deliberately stuck a disease deadly to weak elderly people into nursing homes then protected them from lawsuit.

But Northern Italy had this absurdly high death rate, which doesn't make any sense in or out of context. What happened? I know later they greatly reduced the rate admitting most of them were not from the Wuhan Flu but still.

For a lot of reasons, but probably the number one reason is that the polio vaccine actually worked as advertised. If you took the vax, your chances of getting polio were essentially reduced to effectively zero. You know, like a vaccine ought to actually perform.

I now know multiple people who got COVID after being vaccinated. I suppose that a person could make the argument that it may reduce R0 a bit, and that it probably does have benefits as far as not being as bad if you DO catch it, but they really should do more to address the elephants in the room by admitting that it isn't as effective as they said, and also figure out why all of these young people are dropping dead from heart complications all of a sudden.

Besides that, Cramer says "You can't stop it." You think by now all these imbeciles would realize this and let everyone take their chances. So many absolutes have crumbled. Are they still trying if you get the vaccination your case will be less severe? Is there conclusive evidence of this? There never seems to be conclusive evidence of anything. Masks. Social Distancing. Lockdowns. Vaccinations.

Yet they keep going back to the same playbook. Get the shot for sure if you are over 40 (Ace says 29) or if you have a health problem. Everyone else, do what you want and let's take our chances.

800,000 + deaths and 51 million cases and still they "can't stop it." So what do they think vaccination passports are going to do. Each new measure is a failure and some common sense things are completely disregarded.

I don't think a lot of my liberal friends even believe this clap trap anymore, but we are all playing pretend. It's mass psychosis.

Something far more horrendous than the Wuhan Flu got out of that lab and they freaked out trying to stop it from spreading.

'Bout 10 years ago I realized that every year I was told that more people than ever were getting the Flu shot, and every spring, I got the explanation that they had chosen for the wrong strains again and that I should make sure to be immunized next Fall to be safe.

I figured the flu shot's success was being judged on the quantity of shots given, and not on effectiveness, and it made me think about the Soviet Union's five year plans that always were heralded as national success because the targets were hit, not because anyone needed the products.

Perhaps, but a repressive state also needs to keep things under control and people fleeing to other districts could mess all of that up.

Of course, our press lackeys continue to parrot the line that the Chinese always had everything handled and it started somewhere far away from Fauci's lab in Wuhan.

And instead of working to answer these questions, including the 75 young athletes who have gone down from heart problems in the last 5 months, they explain it by calling anyone asking the question a conspiracy theorist.

Look, if you can't explain it, then just say so. If you can, then do it. But this dismissing of any dissenting opinion, or even just asking a question seeking clarification, as lunatic conspiracy fringe isn't doing anyone any good. If you think it's a stupid question, then fucking explain why - it shouldn't be that hard to expose the stupidity of stupid questions. But for fuck's sake, DO IT.

If 75 young athletes dropping from heart problems in a single 5 month period is no different than a normal year, then demonstrate that. If it's because they had heart problems related to having had COVID, then demonstrate that. When you dismiss it as conspiracy, we all start wondering if maybe, just maybe, you're covering for Moderna, and your own ass for pushing the vax.

Virus generations can occur quickly. Since the long-term trend in virus evolution is to become more contagious and less deadly, it could be the 0-generation of Covid was orders of magnitude deadlier.

I don't believe this part of what we are being told. I think this is a lie also.

I believe at this point that the Vax has no beneficial effect at all, since it is only good against the Alpha variant which no longer exists. The only reason they tell us this is to give a fig leaf of cover to enable them to continue to make money for the manufacturers.

I have not been shown a single study or any other evidence that the Vax reduces severity. They just "say" this, without anything to back it up.

So when I go into the local Publix and see someone sitting down and getting jabbed, under my breath I say "idiot".

I go to an Amish farmers' market twice/week.

The Amish were the first to ditch the masks as soon as the requirement was lifted in PA.

They haven't put them back on, regardless of delta, omigod!, whatever variant comes back up.

I check the statistics for Lancaster County, PA...where they reside. Nothing extraordinary there.

oh they are also unvaxxed. They don't vaccinate for ANYTHING. this is not a new thing

Posted by: kallistx at December 20, 2021 01:31 PM (DJFLF)

548 Couple things.

Masks don't work (we're talking anything but properly fit/worn N95s - and even then, very weak evidence of benefit, and only in clinical, not everyday, setting). THIS IS THE SCANDAL - not "hypocrisy".

Whatever this thing is - it's not a vaccine in the normal sense, more of a prophylactic therapeutic with unclear benefits - just as stated by ace and some commenters, it should be optional, and really no healthy person under 55 should bother with it unless they want to.

The IFR for C19 (all forms) remains - I think - very very skewed towards the elderly, even more so than influenza over the years, which is very skewed. Healthy 17 and 38 year olds don't get shingles or pneumonia or flu shots (which are ineffective anyway), exact same logic applies here.

I go back and forth on this. This whole OP was planned BEFORE Trump got in office. His inaction to fire Fauci because of optics is almost unforgivable seeing what that little rat faced demon has wrought.
Posted by: thathalfrican - The One at December 20, 2021 01:33 PM (QJ599)

It wasn't just optics. McConnell and the GOP would have been the first to make the House draw up impeachment papers, and it would have passed unanimously. At the time, Fauci was truly untouchable.

He should push for the proven effective prophylactics indicating the vaccine works but not as well as he had hoped.

576 There are some problems with the idea that it's better/ok/necessary to have the older people get the vaxx cause they need the protection.

Well there's problems with that. You have to read more about what their caveats say and then do some interpolation but it seems that the older people are at risk because of the heart and lung issues from the virus. That said, the vaxx itself has shown that it too can cause problems to the lungs and heart and that older people would be much more susceptible and in my view should not get the vaxx for that reason. Unless they have no comorbities at all, any of the problematic conditions that the older folks might have will also cause problems for them if they get the vaxx. And they're easier to hide the causes of death and side effects because it can be claimed that "well they were old and had other problems" And yes they did but the vaxx wasn't going to do them any favors compared to the virus.

Which is my go to response in that I've had some heart problems and don't want to risk having them happening and them getting out of control. Right now my meds are doing just fine and tho I'm not up for any marathons I'm doing okay.

579 Democrat lawmakers have warned another round of federal coronavirus stimulus aid may be necessary in the wake of the emergence of the omicron variant of the virus. Despite Biden's 2020 promise he would shut down the virus before announcing in July the United States was closer to "declaring our independence from a deadly virus," the appearance of the omicron variant has caused Democrats to wonder if additional coronavirus aid is necessary.

580 More deaths since the vaccines then before.

If the vaccines prevent "severe cases" that shouldn't be true.

Imagine, for example, if the clot shot reduces your risk of death by 95% or whatever they claim this week.

If half the population had the shot, you should have around half as many deaths after you vaccinated those people. Is that what we are seeing? No.

Astounding.

It does make one wonder about all the counts. The overall deaths for 2020 were up pretty substantially but it's impossible to know how much of that was COVID and how much was the things we did trying to avoid that fate.

I also wonder if COVID hastened the deaths of the vulnerable portion of our population, will we see a reduced count over some spread of future years (since those individuals passed earlier than they would have, on average, in the absence of COVID?)

Several counties in CA dumped over 35 percent of their cases about 6 months in - said that they weren't COVID. I doubt the official case numbers were changed at all by that.

Back in the 90s Chicago had a huge heat wave and power failure and some 700-800 people died. In older times people would sleep on roofs and outside, but high crime in those days ruled that out. Next year the almost same thing happened - very few died. The vulnerable had died, and there were programs to get the vulnerable to places with AC and their own generators for relief, and deaths were very low.

Posted by: Inogame X-State Lines at December 20, 2021 01:03 PM (53oGX)"

This is incorrect and a junk talking point from FB, etc. I have sources in institutional settings where some people are on their 5th round of COVID. Reinfection was a known issue by June 2020 and it's not all that uncommon. I know someone locally who has had it three times.

The common denominator in reinfection was originally vitamin D deficiency; now it's vaccination. In the former cases, ~3 months was when the window opened. No clue as to the latter. But if you are unjabbed and not living in a cave you're going to pick up repeated cross-immunity from other coronaviruses anyways; about 80% of the population had that to start, and both the vax (permanently, it seems) and lockdowns (temporarily) are whittling away at that number.

People should probably take a moment to reflect on a lab-made virus with such cheap, potent prophylactics. And then reflect further on authorities suppressing discussion of them.

606 AGAIN, if you're at a party or visiting with friends or relatives (multi-hour/day exposure), just make a solution of povidone iodine and spray it up your nase-holes, spit it out, then gargle with it for at least 30 seconds. Recipe: 2 tsp povidone iodine in 6 oz of water with a pinch of salt.

This kills the virus in your nostrils and throat, and keeps it from building up and making you sick.

Plus, do your immune supplements. Easy peasy. No spike protein poison necessary.

Bullshit. What are the odds that someone tested negative that day, and then was contagious later that same day?

Presuming this even happened, the most likely explanation is that the tests are not reliable. Where have I heard that before?

An even more likely explanation is that this is not what happened, that he and/or his wife was exposed somewhere else, in which case he's stupid and/or lying.
