In March, Jeffery Zients, White House COVID-19 Czar (what is it about democrats and their love of “Czars”) announced that he was leaving the White House to return to “private life”, a euphemism for “a place that pays a boat load more than federal service”.
In what could be billed as his last word on “The Great COVID-19 Pandemic” Zients, piqued at Congressional failure to give him $10 B for a global effort by the U.S. to vaccinate the world, offered these words:
“It is a real disappointment that there’s no global funding in this bill. This virus knows no borders, and it’s in our national interest to vaccinate the world and protect against possible new variants….”
Zients described the likely result of Congressional dereliction:
“Without additional funding for a global response, we won’t have resources to help get more shots in arms in countries in need,” Zients said.
And due to the lack of funding, the United States will be “forced to scale back” certain types of treatment such as oxygen therapy and other supplies to other countries, said Zients. “Our global genomic sequencing capabilities will fall off, and that undermines our ability to detect emerging variants beyond our borders,” he added.
And there you have it: Virus 1 - Humanity 0.
I suppose that we could call this his “Viruses Without Borders” speech or perhaps the “Variants Rule” oration. Clearly the soon to be former Czar has grave concerns about the next variant of SARS-CoV-2. So lets look at the next great SARS-CoV-2 variant, BA.2, and what is it doing in the U.S. population?
On February 5, 2022 CDC reported that 1% of SARS-CoV-2 consisted of the BA.2 Omicron variant. On April 2, 2022 BA.2 was 75% of all SARS-CoV-2 strains. Over that same period the seven day average of new cases decreased from 286,444 (Feb 6, 2022) to 26,845 new cases (April 5, 2022); a decrease in the number of new cases of 90.6%.
Variant UP; Cases DOWN. A virus doing what a virus does.
And the modern elitist doing what elitists do — trying to scare you into submission.
And for some reason that same COVID-19 Czar doesn’t have the same sense of urgency about the 6,198 deaths that have been reported to have occurred on days 0 and 1 post jab in the vastly under reported VAERS system.
Yesterday I wrote about Walensky’s panel to streamline any future CDC pandemic response. Today I’m writing about the administrations complaint that their effort to save the world from SARS-CoV-2 variant, BA.whoknows, is being stymied by Congress. After all why would they acknowledge that viruses do what viruses do and let loose of the control and the money? They won’t let loose unless we demand that they do and that they do it right now. And to help them along the way we need turn the nation around in the next election.
“10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place….” Ephesians 6:10-14
