My last trip to the casino featured a lot more people wearing masks than last month. Even though the vast majority of them cannot be bothered to even put them on properly. Not that it makes a difference but still.
I take that to be the result of the new Delta propaganda going about. Yes there is a delta variant. Heck, I'll say that there is likely a whole bunch of variants out there and Delta is just the current top dog. But I want to expose this: "Delta is KILLING PEOPLE! GET VAXXED OR ELSE YOU DIE!" propaganda being put out by the likes of Reuters
July 8 (Reuters) - U.S. COVID-19 cases are up around 11% over last week, almost entirely among people who have not been vaccinated, officials said on Thursday, as the highly infectious Delta variant becomes the dominant COVID-19 strain in the country.
Around 93% of COVID-19 cases have occurred in counties with vaccination rates of less than 40%, said U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention director Rochelle Walensky.
Now anyone with their third eye open sees the propaganda here. The plot here is to blame cases and deaths on the "unvaxxed" in order to get the public to accept whatever draconian measures they have in mind to force the unvaxxed to comply. So anyway lets look at worldometers. Here's US cases up to June 29:
That's what their giving you grief about. By their talk you'd think you were at January peak.
Now deaths.
Yeah, that low point at the end of the graph. That's 252 deaths on July5. With a downward trendline. And you'll not that line goes up and down (variance) so one day has 136 the next 400+ (4x deaths OMG We're All Going To Die).
Here's the thing: They know the general public doesn't have worldometers as a bookmark. They know that the general public is numerically illiterate. Sorry but it's true. And so they know the public depends upon them for information.
Earlier today I saw a doctor write about how he is "proning" patients and putting them on ventilators (So please get vaxxed). Proning is turning the patient on their stomachs so their lungs can expand. We already know that ventilator more or less equals soon dead. What bothered me most about it is that these patients werea *allowed* to get this far in the first place. Assuming these patients don't have serious co-morbidities (which by the data are the people who are 99% of these cases), why weren't they prescribed Ivermectin? Why are medical professionals not giving their patients the best care before their lungs are severely damaged?
So there we have it: The propaganda and the data.
