    Herd immunity was reached some time ago. Only the ignorant think it hasn’t.

    Even though there are no facts to support your assertion. Why do you suppose Bill Gates organization has a patent for the virus type?

    This is what the new version of authoritarianism looks like.

    And yet free will could have beat it. If we had all just chosen to wear a mask, socially distanced as much as possible, and got vaccinated we could have beat COVID by now. Interesting isn't it? The ignorance and belligerence of the World's freest country proves just why freedom simply must be regulated from time to time.

    I don't think unvaccinated people should even be allowed in supermarkets and pharmacies and so on. Make them get curbside or delivery if they want to choose to be spreaderscum.

    If you believe this than looks at the virus as a blessing.

    Not according to this definition of herd immunity;

    ''Herd immunity occurs when a large portion of a community (the herd) becomes immune to a disease, making the spread of disease from person to person unlikely.''

    https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases...th/herd-immunity-and-coronavirus/art-20486808

    NOTE: ''making the spread of disease from person to person unlikely.

    Nationally, we may have reached herd immunity, HOWEVER, in many States, mainly RED, their 7 day average daily cases have nearly doubled, such as;

    1. Louisiana 7 day average daily cases.......June 19, 2020; 290..........Jul 09, 2021; 564
    2. Mississippi 7 day average daily cases..... June 21, 2021; 107.........Jul 09, 2021; 268

    What does the Mayo Clinic know? I'll certainly take the word of some anonymous random Trumper on the internet over the Mayo Clinic!

    So you libofascists are now admitting that lockdowns were wrong? If herd immunity is the goal why did we have lockdowns?

    Interesting. You just targeted the 2 states with the highest percentage of blacks.

    Is that what Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov meant with this comment?

    For the record I think every person 35 and over should get the vaccine. It's free, it takes little time and is despite concerns about efficacy and side effects still well worth it.

    Healthy people under 25 do not need it and children should not be given the vaccines.

    Obviously this virus is entirely about politics for you. No need for critical thinking.

    There is a difference between tested true vaccines fully approved by the FDA and these newly engineered unapproved treatments never before used on humans.

    *LOL*

    Where are you getting that from? The fact that the Trumper states are facing increased CV19 infections, or your inability to grasp what "herd immunity" actually means?

    Louisiana, doses delivered and administered as of July 8, 2021

    One dose;

    Black; 31%
    White: 34%

    Fully vaccinated;

    Black; 28%
    White; 31%

    NOTE: Compared to the national average, both Louisiana's Blacks and Whites are undervaccinated.

    Actually, it's about life and death but that IS politics after all and you're right, there's no real need for critical thinking, just get vaccinated, it's common sense.

    So what is your point? That whites are more responsible with vaccinations?

    I'm sure that's what Stalin said to the Ukrainians he starved to death. I'm starving you to save your life.

    A nation of 330 million should come to a complete stop and go full totalitarian because a half million people, the vast majority are already very old and very sick will die.
