1 New Hospitalization, 478 New Cases Reported Since Friday
Humboldt County Public Health reported today 478 new cases of COVID-19 since Friday, bringing to 12,283 the total number of residents who have tested positive for the virus. One new hospitalization, a resident in their 50s, was also reported.
Over the weekend, 270 individuals were vaccinated at Public Health clinics held at two sites in Eureka that included pediatric, first and second doses and additional doses and boosters.
As part of ongoing monitoring, samples of positive COVID-19 cases from primarily health care staff tested last week by the Humboldt County Public Health Lab suggest that the Omicron variant is increasing in the community. Additional samples from the state have confirmed cases of Omicron from late December and early January. Increasing case counts and percent test positivity also suggest that there is rapidly increasing Omicron in Humboldt County.
Health officials said that hospitalizations, rather than positive case numbers, are the best indicator of how the county is being impacted in the most recent surge of cases. Vaccines and boosters provide an increased level of protection from Omicron, Delta and other variants.
Those individuals who are fully vaccinated or boosted typically develop milder symptoms, shorter illness duration and have fewer hospitalizations and less severe outcomes. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data, unvaccinated adults are more than 8 times more likely to be hospitalized than those adults who are fully vaccinated. Locally, that number is currently 17 times higher.
Public Health officials continue to stress that residents, especially those who are unvaccinated, continue to protect themselves and their families from all COVID-19 variants by following mask requirements in public settings, socially distancing and getting vaccinated or boosted when eligible to do so.
As always, Humboldt County’s vaccination and testing services are available free of charge. Although walk-ins are allowed at most regular Public Health clinics and many pharmacy vaccination sites, an increase in demand for boosters has caused delays at some locations. As a result, appointments are required for pediatric clinics and for clinics at Public Health’s main office. Appointments are strongly recommended for all other clinics and are the best way to ensure a shot is available during your visit. Appointments can be made at MyTurn.ca.gov.
Vaccines, including boosters, are available at local pharmacies. To check the availability of a specific vaccine, visit the vaccines.gov page, or text your ZIP code to 438829 to locate a nearby pharmacy offering vaccines.

Two years later…. No longer conspiracy theories 🤷♂️
Are you this person –
For more than a year, I did everything that public-health authorities told me to do. I wore masks. I canceled vacations. I made sacrifices. I got vaccinated. I got boosted. I’m happy to get boosted again. But this virus doesn’t stop. Year over year, the infections don’t decrease. Instead, virulence for people like me is decreasing, either because the virus is changing, or because of growing population immunity, or both. Americans should stop pointlessly guilting themselves about all these cases. In the past week, daily confirmed COVID cases per capita were higher than the U.S. in Ireland, Greece, Iceland, Denmark, France, the U.K., Spain, Portugal, Italy, Switzerland, and even Australia, one of the most COVID-cautious countries in the world. As the coronavirus continues its unstoppable march toward endemicity, our attitude toward the virus should follow a similar path toward stoicism. COVID is becoming something like the seasonal flu for most people who keep up with their shots, so I’m prepared to treat this like I’ve treated the flu: by basically not worrying about it and living my life normally.
Or this person –
Why on earth would we suddenly relax measures now, during the largest statistical wave of COVID ever recorded in the U.S.? We shouldn’t treat Omicron like any old seasonal flu, because it’s not like any old seasonal flu. It’s likely deadlier for those without immunity and almost certainly several times more transmissible for everybody else. We have no idea what the effects of Omicron on long COVID will be, but evidence of lingering symptoms should make us wary of just letting tens of millions of people get needlessly infected. Moreover, the health-care system is already worn down and at risk of being overloaded. Record-high caseloads are societally debilitating, creating long chains of infections that are bound to reach some immunocompromised people and the elderly, thus causing needless death. For all these reasons, we should take individual measures to throttle the spread of this virus.
Or this person –
No way no how. Take your vaccines and shove them where the sun don’t shine.
Without out any links or even you telling us what you are quoting, these have no context.
🕯🌳You can’t go search it yourself?🖖🖖
“No way no how. Take your vaccines and shove them where the sun don’t shine.”
You really want me to search this?
Thanks Willie, I’m sure the search will return the news article within 2 seconds
It took longer but that much. However being jerked around by not providing the link and demanding others take the time to find what you must have had right in front of you was irritating. And will not be repeated.
It’s all wrong anyway. Pay no attention to that load of crap.
The Atlantic today
Ooooh, that’s a prestigious publication
Maybe they’re not quotes. Some people have original thoughts. Weird, huh.
If you repeat an “original thought” then you’re quoting someone or plagiarizing if you don’t quote them.
It’s a very simple dislay of the various attitudes that the public must have by this time. But it is a published opinion page from the Atlantic https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/01/covid-omicron-vaccination-rashomon/621199/
His conclusions-
“My synthesis view is that we should start with the obvious. If I were COVID czar, my rules for early 2022 would be to try desperately to keep schools open and in person, follow through on vaccine mandates for nursing homes, distribute free rapid tests to allow people to identify their own infectiousness when they mix households with vulnerable people, and expand vaccine PSA programs, since the vaccines seem by far the most effective intervention against the virus. If we’re lucky, on the other side of this Omicron wave, “vaccinated and done” won’t be one of many viewpoints in an unfolding COVID Rashomon. It will be something like reality.”
The “stuff your vaccines” part is not in the article. I agree links for direct quotes should be required.
Yep to the last one the responses didn’t come out right
I got my Moderna booster shot today and I’m done. No more. I’m finished listening to a confused CDC and a schmuck as president.
Agreed. The vaccines haven’t lived up to their promises raising questions about their credibility on all covid matters. I doubt more than 25% of Americans would get a fourth shot.
That’s pure BS. The numbers are in, the vaccines are effective.
🕯🌳The vaccine works great on the original Covid-19 and some what on the Delta maybe not so much on the Omicron but that what it was designed for. 🖖🖖
But they haven’t nearly lived up to their promise. The public was sold the preliminary results of trials that showed essentially 100% efficacy against death and 95%+ efficacy against “serious illness “.
The reality is appearing to be that they are much much less effective than that. Those were numbers numbers the 2 dose regimen as well. Now they’re trying to shoe horn in the third dose and act like it’s all working like they promised
Suspence, you must be a comedian. Because your post made me laugh out loud😆😅🤣😂
But that won’t even be your booster for long.
It will just be considered your third dose in no time at all, when they start considering 3 initial doses the new minimum standard.
They said beef was bad for you. I bought a cow.
It’s worked so far.
How qbout eggs in the mid 80’s. Now we know eggs are extremely good for you with a runny yolk. It is really good for modulating hormones. Lately I’ve been trying to study and memorize less covid facts and recently have been learning alot about hormones. These guys are pesky and finicky as little fucks. Sleep ,stress, diet all effect them and they effect how metabolize build muscle and feel happy 😊. My biggest pet peeve is sweet juice, aven veggie juiced, it pumps straight into blood stream spikes insulin. Please can we stop with juices? I’m looking forward to glucoseometer tech getting more affordable as a wearabl, right now it’s 400. I’m waiting. Stay healthy and happy everyone!
Yep eggs is a great example.
Definitely not this person. I don’t do stupid.
That’s funny. That’s me going my own way, but I did get vaccinated late in the game.
It’s been working so far for me, too.. Knock on wood… How stupid is that? SMH.
.
Poor Brandon!
#BareShelvesBiden is trending
They say meditation beats covid now. And what about pushing thereuputics like Trump advocated early in the pandemic?
Meditating for a few minutes each day may be the first step in helping the body fight off cancer and viruses like COVID-19, a new study reveals. A team from the University of Florida found that meditation and yoga programs, or Inner Engineering practices, dramatically boost the body’s immune system.
Relaxing parasympathetic nervous system suppresses cortisol I believe. To much Stress hormones can definitely inhibit immune response. Also humming( tongue on roof of mouth( increases nitric oxide in blood according to some studies). I thought it was interesting for sport performance. But I’m sure more oxygen can’t hurt either. Ill fall short of saying this stops covid though professionally speaking haha.
You should try the latest therapeutic technique being pushed by those who don’t like the vaccine — drinking your own urine. Apparently it’s the magic cure to COVID that we’ve been waiting for.
I read about that yesterday somewhere. That crazy guy who is traveling around the country saying he was going to “Citizen’s arrest” any Governor or other officials who push mask or vaccine mandates. He’s posted pictures of his arsenal he’s allegedly traveling with…and his fake “vaccine police” Badge he’s wearing like a LEO.
It’s a traditional Ayurvedic practice. Haven’t heard of it being used for covid but it’s part of a medical tradition that goes back thousands of years. I’ve never had the guts to try it, grosses me out to much.
I did know one person, some years ago, who made a practice of it for a while. She would collect a small shot of her first pee of the day, mid stream, and drink it. She said when she was in balance it tasted almost buttery. That grossed me out more
“They” really know what they are talking about too. What a bunch of drivel.
And just keep bending over for that big jab! Take off the masks, free the children, if you want the jab that is your decision. Don’t want the jab, that also is a personal decision. Quit the guilt trips on someone’s else’s choice. Stop and remember we all have the freedom of choice because we live in the United States. All this is doing is fear mongering and dividing the people.

Gavin promised all illegal immigrants free medical and health. Talk about an illegal immigration magnet! Anyone around the world facing expensive medical procedures will be heading our way for a free ride on the world’s best Healthcare.
Absolutely, and no vax mandates for them
This time is the end of hopefully a new beginning based on founding principles which created a society based on freedom.
don’t know who needs to hear this, but it’s not “conservative” to support private businesses requiring the Covid shot. I know libertarians & neocons like to shill for the private sector and say stuff like, “It’s a private company, it can do whatever it wants, no government interference. If you don’t like it, go find a new job, shop at a different store,” etc. etc.
At what point do you recognize this is Jim Crow-esque discrimination? Creating a secondary class of citizens? That it’s unjust to force parents working paycheck to paycheck to forego an income because they don’t want to be a part of a global experiment? That when every avenue in private & public life is closed off to making an income and living a normal life, you end up radicalizing people and creating a dissident class that no longer believes in the legitimacy of the government or the right of the ruling class to its power?
When the storm arrives, you will be blamed. Don’t expect mercy.
Let them eat their bootstraps!
So, do what you demand or we’ll be met with violence. Sounds just like liberty (/sarcasm).
False analogy with the Jim-Crow idea. Rules are necessary for a civilized society. This is just another one aimed at protecting public health, not discrimination based on race. Get your AR and go shooting up the town, see how that works out for you.
You may want to do some research. The US is not even close to the “worlds best healthcare.” Try Germany
They were free to experiment…
Aug. 4, 2021 — The U.S. health care system ranked last overall among 11 high-income countries in an analysis by the nonprofit Commonwealth Fund, according to a report released this week.
That’s why, as a white girl, I wasn’t going to get the shot until all the underserved community members got theirs. But then two days after some court said my company could fire me for not getting vaxed, my company offered to fire all the unvaccinated workers, because fuck you, that’s why. Good luck finding work somewhere else, plague rat. So even though it hurts my conscience to take from the historically marginalized I still had to get vaccinated. One of those deaths is my responsibility because I was so selfish.
Humor is a skill not everyone has mastered. I know I struggle with it.
We can all see that.
Touche’
Man, you are deluded if you think we have the world’s best healthcare or that immigrants get a free ride. Of the top 10 countries in the world, the US is 11th (yes I intended that to be humor, though sad humor).
We also spend twice as much per capita as any of the top 10 to get worse care.
Healthcare in this country is seriously broken. The pandemic simply shines a much brighter light on the problem.
Piss and moan, piss and moan. Much easier than changing your circumstances, right.

If everyone treated it as such, the hospitals and those over worked, short handed Doctors and nurses would not be dealing with burn out, they don’t get burned out over the flu each year. Thats the big difference.
Vindication on and jubilation…
Unless you’re in the teachers union in Lori Lightfoot’s Chicago… more posturing and grifting to do there…
Two years seems to be the shelf life of the fake news. Isn’t that how long it took for Russia, Russia, Russia to be exposed. I wonder what will happen reguarding the election a year from now? Hmmmmm.
You mean the one in November? We’ll have to see how things shake out after riot season.
Could be worse.
No it can’t, we’re all going to die! Crack me up.

👍🏻
Jesus, lord above,
If you are going to quote that, you might at least entertain us with how Kamala fits the rest of this:
1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the ajudgment of the great bwhore that sitteth upon many cwaters:
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the ainhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her bfornication.
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of anames of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand afull of abominations and bfilthiness of her fornication:
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, aMYSTERY, bBABYLON THE GREAT, THE cMOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
6 And I saw the woman drunken with the ablood of the saints, and with the blood of the bmartyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great cadmiration.
7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into aperdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the bbook of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
9 And here is the amind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10 And there are seven akings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
12 And the ten ahorns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
14 These shall make awar with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is bLord of lords, and cKing of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the awhore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and bburn her with fire.
17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and agive their kingdom unto the beast, until the bwords of God shall be fulfilled.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great acity, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
I think you forgot to read to the end there…WHERE THE WHOLE POINT is that the woman described is a powerful city.
Anti Catholics argue that the city is Rome and that woman represents the Catholic religion.
Anti Jews argue it is Jerusalem and Israel.
And surprise…folks who are uncomfortable with powerful black women suddenly want to try and pin this weird passage on Kamala…
Don’t call her a whore again unless you want to get banned. No one was allowed to call Melania a whore on my site, and no one is allowed to call Kamala one.
After reading your comment, I admit that the creator of this meme definitely took the quote out of context, to fit a narrative. My apologies for not fact checking the meme, and thank you for taking the time help me understand the context of passage where the quote originated. Didn’t really catch the whore thing until you pointed it out, def was not my intention
So comprehensive reading isn’t your strong point
Thank you for the apology.
You’re welcome 🍻

You have a troll infestation problem with one individual in particular responsible for compiling right wing talking points and propaganda posted under several names. Unfortunately, your threads have become a parroting platform for him to try to mainstream these ideas to the public. Misogyny among them.
Who is this? What names? I just saw kym call out a vaxer for trolling ( thankyou kym) it goes both ways snd its probably one or 2 trying to ruin it like redtape from the Vax side. And no all vaxers are not jerks as with antivaxers.
🤔🧐The commenter that was called out for trolling was being sarcastic or facetious. That means Kym was actually calling out an anti-Vaxxer.🤷♂️
The commenter has never posted any anti vax sentiment. Only pro vax. I just found his posts about race and vaxxing to be either intentionally provocative or very uninformed.
I know that to people who only talk to like minded folks, the discussion threads can be rough. But while there is a troll in the comment section that I have to keep ferreting out, a number of the folks that you don’t like their opinions are people I’ve confirmed are real.
I’m very happy to be corrected and I am definitely ok with and dont doubt there are many opposing opinions. I just see certain screen names and posting patterns I’ve seen before from confirmed trolls elseware. I’d just be curious what confirmed means? Unique ip addresses or accounts aren’t confirmation imo due to current work arounds, but it’s your site so you set the standard whatever that may be. Its unfortunate to me that the site is being platformed and targeted for spreading misinformation and extreme views because I doubt thats the spirit of the local news site you’d like to portray. I’m sure you do your best to moderate, but it’s harder to clean up something than for someone to finger paint on the walls in the first place. Just wanted to let you know a certain someone is trying to take a mess daily in your fine establishment. Anyway, it seems you are aware of it, so it’s all good here. 👍
What’s real?
Do you believe that your need for a tight grip on steering wheel is helping anything?
You simply prolong the suffering.
Yup gave me chills.
That’s the ‘vid
It is mainly a disease of the unvaccinated! In the 60’s 70’s there was community that would have protected neighbors.
It is sad how far the community has fallen.
I know! Can you believe how some politicians were housing COVID patients in nursing homes before the vaccines were available?!
Bullshit. Vaxxed are catching and spreading it, especially omicron.
You must be really uneducated. All my vaccinated friends are getting covid. One can’t seem to shake the symptoms. We hung out all day. Negative efficacy. Chew on that word. That’s what all you vaxed have now. Own it.
That seems true.
Gee only one of the most credible people Dr Robert Malone, coniventer of mrna tech in 1989, been in every pandemic since aids, has worked with fauci for many years, he is questioning mandates, questions masks effectiveness, question the vaccine and it’s effectiveness especially for kids and middle aged adults. He believes the vaccine after 3 dose might be causing negative efficacy( you get covid easier than with no shot!) Because of t-cell repression. I mean how do you not question the vaccine when a 60 year old guy who is about to retire has no financial incentive question the vaccine. He is not doing this for attention. Baning people on Twitter, firing prestigious doctors who are in the top of their class( Robert has several constituents who have been fired for questionING the vaccine). All this and more, like watching all my tripled jabbed friends getting sick. Please if your jabbed its not your fault you didn’t know better.
Seriously, quit drinking the Rogan-ade.
Malone was banned on Twitter for multiple statements that were demonstrably false. He’s pissed because he feels like he wasn’t given enough credit for his study which was done when he was a grad student for a degree he never finished.
Oh that’s right he’s not Provax so he get canceled. They misquoted him to make him look bad. Stop drinking your cult like vaxaid.
Did the deep-state cancel him?
I think It’s too early to know if this misinformation is truly misinformation or if the establishment media might have it wrong. It’s seems thwe truth is different for all of us.
Ignorance is the real killer
You must be a statistician with all your anecdotal evidence. Chew on it. And google Dunning-Kruger while you’re at it.
What do you think have been the causes of this decline of community?
Well, they tell you this,
“Health officials said that hospitalizations, rather than positive case numbers, are the best indicator of how the county is being impacted in the most recent surge of cases”
But they don’t say how many are hospitalized from not with covid.
478 is alot of positives for 3 days! What is the record of positives test results so far, for a weekend in humboldt county?
I believe this is the record.
Good Work Kym
The North Coast Journal that does a stellar job of crunching these kinds of numbers reports, “Today’s cases eclipse the single-day reporting record of 400 new cases reported last Monday, and come after the county confirmed 853 new cases of the virus last week.” https://www.northcoastjournal.com/NewsBlog/archives/2022/01/10/public-health-confirms-record-478-new-covid-19-cases-one-new-hospitalization
Any reason why my comments are still saying “waiting for approval”? Is there some kind of probation period?
Something about the undead running around is unsettling? Seriously, although I have my doubts about you, I didn’t cause the hold. I’m unsure of the reasoning.
Why do you think we have a record number of cases at the time we are at our highest vaccination rate?
Omicron is more contagious than previous variants and the current vaccines are not only less effective against the variant but also, the vaccines are less effective over time and Omicron hit in this “sweet” spot where many of the vaccinated aren’t boosted. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/12/health/britain-omicron.html
Maybe it has to do with the record number of testing?
Is it a record number of tests as well?
That would kind of help to explain it, too, wouldn’t it?
Or maybe it has to do with record number of people getting it? Or are you going with the whole “if we didn’t test, we wouldn’t have a COVID problem” that the previous administration tried.
🕯🌳And some commenters on here.🖖🖖
So is the answer just more of these less effective vaccines more frequently?
Did they ever finish that clinical trial data on the 3 shot regimen of any of the mrna injections? Or did they just can the trials fast as the could? Do we not worry about clinical safety trials anymore?
But you should also take into account the positivity rate as 1,798 test were performed.
That must be a record, as well…
And how is it that the widely various proportions of vaxxed statuses of all those tested are not even considered and adjusted for?
How many caught a cold in Humboldt last week? Answer is no one cares unless they end up in the hospital. Probably half with covid don’t even bother getting tested so what good is reporting a number half right?
We need a new variant to get things going again
(Your funny)
…And a new shot to combat the new variant with 3 boosters shots too…
(Cha ching $$$
is there some hidden check, is this a scam? Idk)
I am sorry for all you sick folks. I hope you have all the love and care you need to feel better.
Omicron booster due in March.
About the same time Omicron will disappear. And before anyone can get another booster, anyway.
Why did a Delta booster never materialize?
Too many leftover surplus original vaccine doses laying around?
I will take as many boosters as I need to. You are probably some filthy unvaccinated scum. I shouldn’t even have to associate with you. People that are unvaccinated should be removed from our daily lives.
They can’t work around people. They’re nothing but useless eaters, and we’re in a climate crisis. It’s just plain selfish of them to keep spewing carbon dioxide when they contribute nothing in return.
What did you just show up to the party? Do you have any evidence to support your claims? We ahhh have been only rehashing every argument for 2 years. Maybe go back and read a few threads!
Come on and step right up get yar latest vaccine🍭. The new omicron vaccine candy is being tested right now. Yum!
Perfectly safe and effective.
I know. It’s from a totally trustworthy source.
Some random guy on Twitter told me.
Hey folks!! Can anyone tell me are you still considered conspiracy theorist if you believe the virus leaked from a lab??? Also I belive racist too? Right??
Is this still the narrative for the “normies”.
I sometime have a hard time keeping up on where we at.
Any input is appreciated. TY
No its a well documented fact.
It’s a documented fact that it came from a lab or that it came from a bat?
🕯🌳Your getting close Wally. 🖖🖖
Sorry It is not confirmed we can only speculate. We can confirm they where engineering viruses for covid not exactly sure the details and it’s likelihood it’s the same one. It was confirmed people did get sick with similar symptoms of covid from Wuhan also. It’s not enough to.prove without a doubt but the way covid anecdotal evidence is made facts I’d say it’s probable.
🕯🌳But probably not. 🖖🖖
Let’s hope we’re getting toward the last gasp, so far as virus variant severity. Liberty needs to be free of the Virus.

We did this already…https://kymkemp.com/2022/01/06/humboldt-county-schools-experience-uptick-in-students-and-staff-testing-positive-being-quarantined-for-covid/#comment-1469802
“African people’s history” does not show a series of European or even non Sub Saharan people. Wouldn’t that mean the algorithm used by search engines reflects bias ofpopular searches? Or deliberate editing of it? Or one leading to the other? There must be a reason that there are different races in Africa is true to but there is zero notice taken of it on that search. Your response in the linked comment is deficient and doesn’t explain why at all.
Didn’t look at African People history. I did look at white dogs and black cat and found a number of not white dogs and not black cats. Google probably is deliberately editing the search results.
Military Documents about Gain of Function contradict Fauci testimony under oath.

It’s a Project Veritas video so…
I asked Kym earlier if she allowed PV links here but did not get a clear answer.
No clear answer. Maybe cuz Project Veritas is scuzzy, using deceptive techniques, including recording people without their knowledge and misrepresenting their (Veritas) employees’ identities and purposes. Org is financed by so-called “conservative” fund Donors Trust and other supporters including the Donald (The Big Lie) Trump Foundation. The dirtbag, Erik Prince, part of the cell.
Well that’s fine. Kym can just say no we can’t share PV links. In fact it would save us all some time to have a list.
So now recording somebody to get the truth is deceptive I guess the news should just keep making shit up huh
Nice quote:
Trump called it COVID was cured in April.
Screen shot pulled from Project Veritas video. It is an American virus made in a Chinese lab. Cures have been withheld murdering millions.
Screen shot PV.
Huge number of positive test results. Anybody want to bet against me- I’m saying all those New Years parties and concerts did it. I said it here yeah I called it. Now…which one was the bigger super spreader- deadheads, soul night, reggae or fake year of the tiger costume party at the Eagle House? That’s 4 big collections of fools there…
Oh yeah- ATL show
5 groups of fools
Yes your right! All the gyms also. Health sport especially I know a few who have tested positive there as well. Good thing I’m immune!
Unvaccinated people should be removed from our daily lives.
They do not have feelings.
They do not help us.
They do nothing but HURT us.
THEY need to be removed from our daily lives.
I’m pretty sure you’re trolling at this point. Might want to take a break from posting.
Facetious font?
Here let me try…

I totally agree with you. I’m going to brio to get coffee meet there at 11:00?
🕯🌳The vaccine was made for the original Covid-19 and just like the flu as new variants come along we should expect new vaccines. 🖖🖖
That’s fine enjoy !

Fauci grilled senator Paul. Jordan, Paul, and very many, you could even say most GOP rwnjs are making a fortune on donations from the dim related to lies they don’t even believe in.
As did and do the lwnjs over Trump. There is plenty of lack of integrity to gobaroubd.
there is a big difference. they believed trump is a criminal and still do, so don’t i. most of trump’s playbook was no different than putin’s. the only difference there is that putin is very smart and crafty, trump not so much.
Yeah, sure. Why should I believe some rando liberal on a backcountry blog? Donations and politicians, it’s kinda like flies attracted to dung, equal opportunity hucksters all. The grilling was the other way around by the way, the lil Italian who thinks he is a genius is just another small minded bureaucrat with a big title who derives power from his position because he has no other means to gain power in his life. Very typical of many bureaucrats. The lil Italian is in a league with that other schmuck Italian Mario the sexual harasser. Both make all Italians look bad and should be banished to Sicily where they can suck on spoiled wine and head cheese.
Now adding nationality origins (Italian) heritage and size to the argument against him, eh? Oh my. Sorry, the closing attempt at ‘save’ (“make all Italians look bad”) is too little, too late. Enjoy your hot dog.
U wish u knew what real gnocchis r, but nice try, non Italian. Those two heroes of the democrats need to be deported to Sicily where they can suck on spoiled wine, head cheese, and rotten prosciutto.
And … the trumpian double down. Niiiice. Yer guy will do same, plus a tripledown, all the way to Rikers Isle let’s hope.
Dr. Ian Hoffman resigned as Humboldt County’s health officer.
Now why would he do that ? Being surrounded by a bunch of yapping Chihuahua brains who blame public health for the pandemic and the economic disruption and refuse to accept any responsibility for their part in the choices would seem to be a hoot?
You dam right we as Americans have choices. My choice is to go with the advice of the doctor who worked directly for and with Jonas Salk. His name is Dr. Malone and he is one of the top experts on vaccines in this country. Because chihuahuas have small heads, does that make them stupid? Kinda like bird or squirrel brains maybe?
“You Dam right”
we’re
“a bunch of yapping Chihuahua brains who blame public health for the pandemic and the economic disruption and refuse to accept any responsibility for (our) part …
If you are a student of history, you judge after enough time has passed to give people a better look at how our perspective is lacking so much more information that will continue to come out as more people begin to see they’ve been lied to, consistently, and stop giving strangers in the government respect they don’t deserve.
Our only job is to be the best we can be, aside from any outside coercion.
If they wanted people healthy, we wouldn’t have empty corporate calories for dinner.
How much packaging does your diet consist of?
Say no to GMO.
Really? If he truly thought they were dangerous, why did he get both shots of the Moderns vaccine? After he said they were dangerous. N And he said ” it’s “nucking futs” for people who have had COVID-19 to get vaccinated. Which is also what he did. “Malone has also suggested that the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines might actually be making the coronavirus more dangerous” and guess what? That was wrong too as witness omicron.
What seems to be really going on is that he’s a vindictive SOB who felt slighted when the press called others the inventors of mRNA vaccines even when they gave him credit for his prior work, got all pissy and called himself the inventor, “admitted to Logically in July that he did not invent the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines of today, and instead claimed credit for creating the “vaccine technology platform.” But later on anti vaxxer sites, returned to calling himself the inventor. The man’s a hot mess. He worked at the Salk institute until he got booted out over personality conflicts without even completing his degree. Then he got left off the patents and thereafter complained to anyone who would listen ““They got rich on the products of my mind.”
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02483-w is a really precise and thorough history of mRNA vaccines.
https://www.politifact.com/article/2022/jan/06/who-robert-malone-joe-rogans-guest-was-vaccine-sci/
But he says- sort of- what anti vaxxers want to hear and they trot him out as their show pony at every opportunity. After all, inept and inaccurate with a vindictive nature, he’s still the best they got.
He has warned against negative efficacy after a number of doses, and suggested that the unknown risks aren’t worth the benefit to children and younger adults.
He’s fairly elderly, and has never said that the vaccines are dangerous.
I do agree that he strikes me as bitter and very much seems to be enjoying the attention. Although the same could be said about fauci. Should we disregard his opinions for the same reasons?
Maybe because cases are at an all time high?
It’s happening folks!! Dr Fauci will testify at a Senate Hearing today!!!

Even in the worst case, Fauci will commit more perjury, this time more obvious to normies. It might even bring attention to the IG document to people who are imprisoned by the MSM-jail.
The senators have the P.V. military docs that showed Fausti lied about gain of function.
we are in the west coast there wally. i watched it this morning. Fauci grilled Paul and pointed out how he likes to twist and distort the facts, over, and over again. but Paul likes the donations from the dim he will keep it up. Fauci also pointed out how some crazy wing nut from the west grabbed his AR-15 and started heading east to kill Fauci. its only a matter of time before this shit the GOP created hits the fan.
Rand Paul, ongoing king of senate loonies? Could be, could be. Watch, he’ll run for Prez in ‘24, bailing early with less than 1% support.
Sigh. As if anything was that simple. If a scientist’s job was to figure out how to treat a potential virus that was manipulated by a foreign government to be used as a bioweapon, he would need to know what changes could be done in order to know how to deal with them. So he would need to have some mutated virus in order to learn how it can be stopped. So he makes a “gain of function” virus to use in testing how to stop it. Would that be “gain of function” research or the needs of national security? Would it be stupid to assume other countries are not doing so and be caught unable to respond because there was no tolerance for the work?
Such research is a dilemma. There is always a risk of accidental release and damage, even with the best efforts to ensure such creations are benign. Then there is the sharing or even encouraging of research that might allow a not so benign country to make use of it. One thing for sure is that the PRC has neither the openness or the integrity to be a good partner. There are too many non native researchers using US funding for there to be any integrity that any research will remain in US hands. And even if US citizens are the ones doing it, it does not guarantee security as there are plenty of cases of them being bought by foreign governments.
So such research can’t be stopped in a foreign country and should the US refuse to be aware of it? It is a serious dilemma that Rand Paul should know better than to use in public hearings. No matter if Fauci erred on the side funding research out the US’s control or not, making it personal is pretty pathetic and damagung. If he thinks Fauci went too far, it’s not like it would have stopped it from happened anyway. But then the US might have been unaware of it. The answer is not easy and Rand Paul should know better.
Rand Paul does “Know Better”. You make a lot of assumptions and tell a wild story to justify why Fauci lied to congress. You suggest COVID started somewhere else besides Wuhan, which is the funniest thing you could say.
Here’s two undebatable facts for you. From Fauci’s own emails.
But I kinda liked your fictional narrative of “Assume this, so that one would need that, in order to assume this, assume that, and so on.”
Just do a search of “What’s Rand Paul’s problem.” And it is not assuming anything- it is what research scientists do. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-scientists-tweak-lab-viruses-to-make-them-more-contagious1/
Have you read the email exchange and found nothing untoward?
You need to actually read those emails.
If you honestly think there is nothing wrong with the highest paid government employee engaging in a smear campaign against scientists.
You might think a little differently about these vaccine hesitant in your life.
Well said Rent a Wreck. This guy thinks he can search opinion pages smearing an actual Doctor who is now a Senator, and explain to us what Scientists do.
Meanwhile his hero Fauci is conspiring to smear REAL RESEARCH SCIENTISTS because he doesn’t like their conclusions.
Since when is a government doctor supposed to get involved with covering up the origin and smearing alternative solutions proposed by the best Epidemiologists in the country?
Fauci could be leading the best COVID response for this country, but he can’t and won’t earn the public’s trust because he’s lying to congress and conspiring against anyone who questions him. He needs to resign if he wants this Pandemic to get under control. Maybe Americans will trust the next guy to fill his shoes.
