    People’s Church sounds a lot like that religious operation in Guyana in the 1970s.

    CDC Official Who Warned Americans Coronavirus Could Cause 'Severe' Disruption Resigns


    "At a White House press briefing in late February, when the country had barely more than a dozen reported cases of the virus, Messonnier warned that community spread would be likely and that "disruption to everyday life might be severe."

    "It's not so much a question of if this will happen anymore, but rather more a question of exactly when this will happen and how many people in this country will have severe illness," she said.

    At the time, her words about the pandemic were among the strongest yet from the Trump administration, which was still publicly downplaying the severity of the situation. Stocks tumbled. The Wall Street Journal later reported that then-President Donald Trump threatened to fire Messonnier shortly afterward.

    The next day, Trump announced he was putting the vice president in charge of the government's response and famously predicted that what were then 15 reported cases "within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero."

    Nearly half of the people who withdrew from the Pfizer trial due to "complications" had gotten the placebo shot.

    They should probably take VAERS down, then, so that it isn't cited as a source. If anti-vaxxers are misusing it, use a more secure program.

    The righty on Left-Right-And-Center podcast this week I thought made a pretty good prediction that as getting the vaccine fades from a selfie/woke event and becomes instead more widely available at walk-up clinics and doctors offices -- in other words, becomes much easier to get -- many of the laggards will partake. He made the point, that I tend to agree with, that there's still a core group of Americans who don't really know about it, understand it's available, or understand why they need it.

    Those of us who spend every waking moment attached to the Internet and media forget that there are millions who don't.
