The Babylon Bee
To defeat the massive, scary, definitely world-ending wave of COVID being driven by the delta variant of the deadly, frightening disease you should remain afraid of for the rest of your life, experts are recommending we try all the things that didn’t work the first time.
From wearing masks and social distancing to locking everyone down and destroying the economy, experts are all suggesting that we just try the same things we did last time that didn’t work at all.
“We are going to lock down, wear masks, and social distance, all of which didn’t work, but hey. It’s worth trying again,” said Dr. Anthony Fauci in a television interview this morning. “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. That’s what they taught us in science school. Look at my lab coat. It’s white. Do you like it? It has pockets.”
The television anchor then assured Dr. Fauci that his pockets were very nice.
“Thanks. I also have the heartbeat thingy. I like to breathe on it to warm it up. Makes me look official and doctory and whatnot.”
Time to stock up on ass wipe, bleach and stuff the freezer with frozen pizza. Update the old will. There is no hope they have an entire alphabet of mutations each deadlier than the last one DOOMED!
The Delta Variant Will Drive A Steep Rise In U.S. COVID Deaths, A New Model Shows
—
The current COVID-19 surge in the U.S. — fueled by the highly contagious delta variant — will steadily accelerate through the summer and fall, peaking in mid-October, with daily deaths more than triple what they are now.
That’s according to new projections released Wednesday from the COVID-19 Scenario Modeling Hub, a consortium of researchers working in consultation with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to help the agency track the course of the pandemic.
It’s a deflating prospect for parents looking ahead to the coming school year, employers planning to get people back to the workplace and everyone hoping that the days of big national surges were over.
“What’s going on in the country with the virus is matching our most pessimistic scenarios,” says Justin Lessler, an epidemiologist at the University of North Carolina who helps run the modeling hub. “We might be seeing synergistic effects of people becoming less cautious in addition to the impacts of the delta variant.
“I think it’s a big call for caution,” he adds.
The group’s latest projections combine 10 mathematical models from various academic teams to create an “ensemble” projection. It offers four scenarios for its projections — varying based on what percent of the population gets vaccinated and how quickly the delta variant spreads.
In the most likely scenario, Lessler says, the U.S. reaches only 70% vaccination among eligible Americans, and the delta variant is 60% more transmissible.
In that scenario, at the peak in mid-October, there would be around 60,000 cases and around 850 deaths each day, Lessler says.
Each scenario also includes a range of how bad things could get — the very worst end of the range for the most likely scenario shows about 240,000 people getting infected and 4,000 people dying each day at the October peak, which would be almost as bad as last winter…

Expect it to be ramped up just before the 2022 elections. Democrats expect an ass-kicking and will press to impose the same election fraud techniques that served them so well in 2020.
Looks like idiot Biden is a gigantic failure handling the virus. 250,000 deaths on his hands. Now another surge. At least someone is wiping his butt.
Current projections indicate the Delta variant will most likely be “ramped up” only two or three months from now, when the US could be seeing around 60,000 new COVID cases and 850 new COVID deaths with every passing day.
The virus doesn’t give a damn about anyone’s politics.
No, the virus doesn’t care, but the Democrats do. They politicized the original infection and they are politicizing this variant.
Looks like idiot Biden is failing catastrophically in controlling the virus. What a complete disaster. Every case and death is on him. Do you regret supporting the fraud that put this idiot in office yet?
Like Biden’s “blue surge” overnight when mysterious ballots came in, these “predictions” sound a bit more like engineering.
Fauci, the CDC, and the WHO have no credibility at this point and will not be listened to.
“Fauci, the CDC, and the WHO have no credibility at this point and will not be listened to.”
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is set on Tuesday to recommend fully vaccinated Americans wear masks indoors!!! (Reuters)
Fully vaccinated yet still able to be infected.
Top Biden administration officials (Fauci and others) are weighing whether to recommend that some states and communities reimpose mask mandates, particularly indoors to slow the spread of the Delta variant. (Politico)
And then as proof they are just making fears up to suit the political necessities:
A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) document shows that “breakthrough” COVID-19 infections — people who are already vaccinated who still get infected by the coronavirus — are extremely rare. (ABC News)
So, which is it?
EVERYBODY needs to mask up because of an EXTREMELY RARE happening?
Or, more likely, liars for the Dems are trying to figure out ways to prevent Trump rallies in support of those who would oppose Biden at every turn?
Normally, when you are making shit up, it becomes difficult to keep the lies straight. There are so many different people, organizations and entities involved in trying to spread fear of this mild variant that they don’t take the time to coordinate their lies (as the media often does).
Any degradation of civil rights at this point will be solely due to the failure or corruption of this idiot-driven regime.
Once again, Babylon Bee is too close for comfort to the actual situation. The “surge” will ramp up to provide election fraud for Democrats in 2022.
so home many times do the American people have to be vaccinated?? 10-50 is a great possibility. the fake propaganda is amazing. NOTICE: a death certificate has three lines as to the cause of death. the alleged virus is not line 1 or 2., but possibly line 3 if the patient has tested positive and has died not of old age, respiratory dx long standing, long standing cardiac issues or other dx., like cancer, hemorrhage or gun shot wounds. the current number are fake for none have demonstrated a + test and or a post mortem examination to assess the true cause of death. Ex., grandmother with COPD, multiple cardia issue, diabetes, advance degenerative dx’s dies of the alleged virus. not really. nyc’s numbers are so fraulent that a true accounting will never be made. recall the Westmoreland in Nam fabricated the death toll of the VC? No different today. Stop drinking the propaganda Kool-Aid.
Delta Variant™
Just in time to distract and confuse the population again
Resist.
Yet more real word results of stupidity in high places: Florida breaks record for COVID-19
On Saturday, Florida had 21,683 new COVID infections in a single day—the highest number at any time since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Today, Sunday, August 1st, Florida ALSO broke its all-time record for COVID-19 hospitalization.
On Friday, DeSantis barred school districts from requiring students to wear masks when classes resume next month—while the number of children hospitalized with COVID is rapidly rising.

Indeed, how stupid is it to allow infected illegal immigrants into the country, then fly and bus them all over the nation? How stupid is it to just release them into the population without tracking them or even giving them court dates (which they don’t show up for anyway)?
The delta variant is less harmful and lethal than the original Wuhan virus. There’s no reason to panic or induce fear. Democrats are trying to exert more unconstitutional control over civil liberties and freedoms.
I’ve mentioned it before, and, like in FLA, Utah has a Republican gov., but here’s the deal:
Doctors are prohibited from prescribing HCQ and invermectin, both excellent treatments for covid in place of hospitalization.
Pharmacists cannot fill prescriptions for HCQ or invermectin, either.
You can’t get treatment for covid UNLESS you go to the hospital!
Thus “hospitalizations for covid are up,” is the card being forced on us all.
It sure looks scary on paper.
And, once in the hospital, who knows if you’ll even get HCQ or other great treatments for covid.
Ginning up panic is the name of the game.
My older brother, 76 and undergoing chemo, contracted the virus after getting his Pfizer shots. He was treated with HCQ and ivermectin. His case was mild and he never had to go to the hospital.
