Pundits Disappointed - Covid Now Indistinguishable From Colds, Allergies



Quote:As the CDC and the public health establishment keep pushing dire warnings out to the public and begging people to get vaccinated, the actual disease has done what almost all respiratory diseases do: become less dangerous.

That’s not due to some version of compassion on the part of the virus. There is no “Oops, my bad” thinking on the part of this nasty little strain of RNA or DNA. It’s just evolution at work. Some of that evolution is found in our immune system, and some in the virus itself.

Viruses that kill large numbers of their hosts are less fit than those that don’t, and Darwin himself will tell you that evolution tends toward the fitter varieties of organisms (or kinda sorta organisms, in the case of viruses). If a virus keeps killing off its hosts then it won’t spread well. This is why Ebola outbreaks don’t go very far, even in places with horrible healthcare systems. It kills too quickly to spread far and wide. There is an animal reservoir out there where the virus doesn’t kill at all, and that is the ideal host for it.

The 1918 flu wasn’t wiped out by antivirals or a vaccine; it mutated away from being so deadly. That is what happens.

I'm sure the Wuhan Lab has developed a more serious virus for 2024. Simply waiting for the "go" word - probably start flying out the infected volunteers in mid December. All the Christmas shoppers, NFL and college bowl games, NY Eve parties.
