Where CNN Goes All In On COVID Xenophobia

 It's no secret I have a low opinion of CNN. CNN has once again earned it's reputation is gutter level "news" with it's latest 

I may not have written it here but I know I mentioned it on a YouTube comment that the next phase of the propaganda would be that the unvaxxed are health hazards as a pretext to force medical interventions on them which may include the use of state force and forms of public discrimination. Remember that the Nazi's did not jump from "The Jews are the problem" straight to gas chambers.  The public had to be conditioned first.

"(CNN)Unvaccinated people do more than merely risk their own health. They're also a risk to everyone if they become infected with coronavirus, infectious disease specialists say."

Remember that we have discussed, at length the fact that many people have T-Cell reactivity to COVID even though they never had contact with the virus

"We observed that SARS-CoV-2 T-cell response was detectable in more than 97% of convalescent COVID-19 positive subjects and in about 40% of unexposed donors sampled before the pandemic period, in agreement with previous observations [13-15]."

  and

Despite 40 to 60% of unexposed individuals showed positive SARS-CoV-2 T-cell response, less is known about its relevance in the clinical outcome of COVID-19 infected individual. In keeping with some authors, it could be speculated that the presence of cross-reactive T cells correlates with mild disease [,]. [My underlines]

So a large percentage of people likely have prior immunity. Where that immunity is not "total" it is likely [as of that publication] that it reduces the severity of COVID, likely due to the patient not going into the deadly inflammatory stage. 

Of course you'll find none of this "expert" writing in CNN's article because it isn't meant to inform.  But let's get back to the propaganda piece:

"That's because the only source of new coronavirus variants is the body of an infected person.

"Unvaccinated people are potential variant factories," Dr. William Schaffner, a professor in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, told CNN Friday.

Only?

Have we not covered the number of "fully vaccinated" people who have become "cases"?  

"The cluster’s index case, Case 62873, is an 88-year-old cleaner who worked at Changi Airport Terminal 3. He tested positive on May 5 despite being fully vaccinated.""

This very incident completely contradicts the CNN propaganda piece. The piece is literally FAKE NEWS.

Not only that, it also contradicts another known issue:

Studies suggest that the emergence and spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants is correlated with the absence of robust immune protection after first exposure to previous (wild-type) viruses, or even to a vaccine., This evolution, associated with the emergence of immune escape mutants, has not only been observed with SARS-CoV-2, but also with other viruses.

"Immune escape." 

The phrase "immune escape" is nowhere in the CNN propaganda piece. We are not surprised.

"Also, the dynamics of natural or vaccinal collective immunity in the regions where these variants emerged might have placed substantial pressure on the viral ecosystem, facilitating the emergence of a variant with enhanced transmissibility." 
 Translation: The current vaccines may not be effective long term.
"If substantial immune evasion occurs, current vaccines are likely to still offer some benefit to individuals. At the population level, however, they could induce viral selection and escape, making the prospect of achieving herd immunity increasingly remote."

"Pressure on the viral ecosystem facilitating the emergence of a variant with enhanced transmissibility" 

Translation: Vaccinated people are "variant factories".

I'll repeat my solution to this problem again: The point is to keep people from the inflammatory stage of the disease. When you have something this transmissible, trying to keep people from getting infected is a fool's errand. The way you get people to stay out of the inflammation stage is to treat early. However; you cannot treat early when you can be asymptomatic for weeks. So you instill a habit of Vit D and Zinc. Vit D is key because it predicts severity. Zinc inhibits replication. A zinc ionophore  like Quercetin helps zinc enter the cells therefore making any dose you take more effective. In this way, WHEN you get infected, your system is already inhospitable for SARS replication and thus unlikely to cause the inflammatory response while the immune system ramps up.

I don't understand how anyone is taking CNN and others seriously. After the Fauci leaks and the totaly 180 on the "lab leak theory" they should be bankrupt and off the air by now.

All CNN is doing at this point is breeding xenophobia. Don't fall for it.
