Interesting is the '2nd wave' nuber of infections, but the death rate remains very low (compared to the first wave).

As the video showed. In the first wave it was predominantly older people catching it. In the second wave it is predominantly under 25s catching it.
As the cases rise though all age groups sre effected. Come back in a months time with no actions and with the delay from catching it and death combined with increasing older people catching it, the deaths will be back.

Yeah, the next month will be very interesting.

I think there should be a 'go for it' shot - ie, if you are willing to take the risk and try a phase 3 vaccine - why not? I'm over this Covid-19 BS, lockdowns, masks, etc etc etc - if there was a option to take a vaccine that has so far proven itself in phase 3 trials with bugger all side effects, l would. Why not?

I am over it also.
But the phase 3 trials arnt done snd some of the vaccines will likely fail.
Cant speed it up.
 
I wonder if it will lead to restrictions on people who don't get the vaccine, similar to kids and school?

Uummm hold off DB hearing there are a few problems as the vaccine's are messing with the immune system looking like there will be different vaccines for different age groups / risk groups it will work out but there are occurring adverse reactions (which is normal) but will take time to sort out who have the risks for each vaccine.

Got to love that video, brilliant, whether it is factually correct, I don't know, but its production is brilliant.

The details of responses to the COVID outbeak outlined in the video are simple, public and easily checked. No reason to believe they are incorrect.

The US response is damning at every point of the process.
 
The consequences of Trumps COVID infection are still reverberating. Highlights how easily the virus can spread.
The interesting part will be seeing how people are affected.

Talk about tempting fate... The guy has just gone home and is still drugged to the eyeballs with steroids , drug cocktails whatever and someone wants to do a victory lap on $100 coins.

White House Gift Shop selling 'Trump Defeats COVID' commemorative coin

The White House Gift Shop started selling a “Trump Defeats COVID” commemorative coin on Monday before the president returned to the White House from the hospital.

Anthony Giannini, the chairman of the White House Gift Shop (WHGS), designed the $100 coin as the final coin in a series for Trump’s first term.

“When we at WHGS first heard the sad news of President Trump's positive COVID test, once again we had faith and prayed, yet we knew our President would find a way to knockout COVID in early rounds of this battle,” Giannini said. “President Trump, as you know, is a fan of boxing, and the new coin design features more than a hint of superhero qualities in history's most fascinating president.”

Talk about over reaction to a situation.

The war on communism
The war on drugs
The war on nuclear weapons unless you are the US
The war on terrorism
The war on a f---k virus, that kills the weak and the elderly and destroys the lives of the strong and fit

Can we just stop the fear-mongering

My children should not have to pay off the past mistakes of the govnuts.

We will see won't we ?

Rumour has it that he was so upbeat because he was stoked up on steroids.

We'll see how long it lasts, but I wish him no ill will medically at least.

If you look at the video where he takes off the mask (after the 1:10 mark), he is clearly struggling for breath, even though he has only walked up a few steps. He is still very sick, mentally and physically.

Yep, he doesn't look well at all. After 10 days the virus kicks in and people go downhill fast.
