A new term I see bandied about is "mass formation", meaning the standard consensus that everyone believes. I think they're trying to get away from the term hysteria to get people to take this as a serious problem with the information the MSM shares. 

They're only what, two five many decades behind the times? Still--it's good to see this getting some coverage.

This is something I've seen personally--doctors won't actually test to confirm which variant of a bug you have. Whatever they are being told is the hot one right now is the one they assume you have. So if you come in with the same set of symptoms but actually have a different problem, they assume you're just another case of the prevalent bug.

Yes.  

The suspects are described as “teenagers“. No other information. I think I know what that means.

New White House dog named Karl Barx

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Move over, Chairman Meow! The Biden family has brought an adorable puppy into their family, and have decided to name this "pawesome" pal Karl Barx, after the brilliant economist Karl Marx, who inspired many of Biden’s policies during his flawless first year as President.

HA! Oh, but Tung never shows up alone, and always brings along his thousands of hungry mouths to feed.

And maybe down another one: Texas man's death

“We can’t confirm the patient died of COVID,” HCPH’s Martha Marquez can be heard saying, “but we can say that he was omicron positive at the time of his death.”

Again, we’re faced with the huge distinction of dying with COVID versus actually dying from COVID.

Marquez said that epidemiologists looking at the deceased man’s records “cannot say that COVID was the absolute cause of death,” after what she described as a “very meticulous investigation.”

The deceased reportedly had more than one comorbidity.

And now, thanks to someone mentioning it at Instapundit, I’ve had the “Panzerlieb” running through my head all afternoon. (Specifically, a mention of the song’s appearance in the movie “the battle of the bulge“.)

Israeli drug prevents 100% of COVID patients from deteriorating in trial

Yippee.  Wonder how long it will take to get it to market if it truly works.  Will they fast-track it or put it through years of testing?

Or delay it as much as possible because it would put a stop to the COVID TERROR!!!!!! and the resulting control the government takes.

If I were running the Israeli company, I'd produce it in some "settlement" and tell the BDS'ers where to go.

Actually, I wouldn't refuse to sell them life-saving material, but would make sure they know where it came from.
