    Yeah, that's her. She usually acted as if the White House had put some sort'uv invisible duck tape on her mouth with robotic implants in her neck to make her always nod in agreement with Trump even when Trump stated to drink bleach if you get Covid.

    I'm still crossing my fingers that a sub-variant isn't birth that's deadlier than all the prior variants of concern that evade natural immunity for those that recovered from prior Covid infection and evade vaccines. :banghead:

    I do enjoy traveling again (just returned back from France, the United States and other provinces here in Canada)...would hate to see borders closed again.

    Hey @carrer,

    Go find 100 unvaccinated women that are pregnant...10% to 15% will end in a miscarriage.

    Go find 100 vaccinated women that are pregnant...10% to 15% will end in a miscarriage.

    For women who know they're pregnant, about 10 to 15 in 100 pregnancies (10 to 15 percent) end in miscarriage. Most miscarriages happen in the first trimester before the 12th week of pregnancy. Miscarriage in the second trimester (between 13 and 19 weeks) happens in 1 to 5 in 100 (1 to 5 percent) pregnancies.

    The above statistics are prior to Covid. The statistics stayed the same until late 2020 when there was a surprising increase in miscarriages...before...vaccines for Covid. The increase correlated with the decrease in prenatal care visits in the year 2020.
    • We've now trended back down to the mean statistics prior to Covid now that women are back to seeing their prenatal care physician.
    In fact, there was an increase in many diseases and illnesses in 2020 during the lockdowns due to people cancelling Doctor visits and backlogs in medical care/visits.

    We're now trending back down to the mean statistics prior to Covid now that individuals are seeing their Doctors again.

    On a different note involving Cancers during 2020...

    Around the nation—colonoscopy suites stood empty as patients refused to come in, terrified of setting foot in any hospital or clinic. Screening center schedules, once full of mammography appointments, cleared dramatically. Hospital corridors quieted; screening center workers were sent home. Hospital administrators struggled to find enough PPE to take care of urgent surgeries, and elective procedures fell to the wayside. As COVID cases surged frighteningly across the country, cancer detection seemed to be the last thing on anyone’s mind.

    Now that people are back to visiting their Doctors...early detection of Cancers is trending back to their mean as life gets back to normal.

    Another note as an example, I took a slapshot to my knee in a hockey game from one of my teenagers before I was vaccinated. Limped for about a month and didn't see a Doctor during the worst of the Pandemic.

    Knee started acting up again while traveling in the United States and decided to visit a nearby VA Hospital when I was traveling in the state of Illinois...not because I'm fully vaccinated and they have very strict face mask rules. I was just time to get my knee taken care of while hospitals are slowly becoming a safe place to visit a Doctor. :)
    • What if my knee injury from a hockey game had occurred after my vaccination ?
    Could I have reported it to VAERS as an adverse vaccine event (sarcasm) ? :D

    The answer is YES to the prior question. :rolleyes:

    P.S. @carrer - we're getting closer to the end of the year for another one of your end of the world prediction.

    Now she (Dr. Simone Gold) is in prison. She put her heart and soul into helping humanity through Covid.

    She'll be out of prison in about 60 days...

    -------

    U.S. District Judge Christopher R. Cooper said that Gold, who pleaded guilty in March, failed to show remorse or accept responsibility for her actions during the riot. He noted she had claimed in an interview with The Washington Post that “where I was was incredibly peaceful,” when video showed that the emergency room physician and Stanford-trained attorney did nothing as a mob she was with dragged a police officer to the ground.

    The judge also called it a “disservice to the true victims that day” that Gold has given supporters the “misimpression” she was politically persecuted for giving a speech, and raised $430,000 for her personal and organization expenses.

    ----------

    That police officer was beaten and injured...she gave no emergency aid nor call for help although she is an emergency room Doctor. Yet, she is a little richer from her legal problems.

    I'll give you a quick virology lesson without going into too much detail.
    • SARS-CoV is different than SARS-CoV-2 (aka Covid-19) although they both are coronaviruses.
    SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV use the same host cell receptor. It also found that, for both viruses, the viral proteins used for host cell entry bind to the receptor with the same tightness (affinity).

    Another recent study compared the specific area of the viral protein that’s responsible for binding to the host cell receptor. Researchers observed that the receptor binding site of SARS-CoV-2 binds to the host cell receptor with a higher affinity than that of SARS-CoV.

    The difference that caused the medical treatments success rate when comparing the two is the encoding protein Orf8. Covid-19 evolved...getting smarter by removing/adding nucleotides (playing amino acid switch) on the Orf8 component.

    Thus, it lessens the effectiveness of chloroquine against SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19). Therefore, Covid-19 is one smart and very nasty virus...interfering with our immune responses and causing higher hypoxia in comparison to SARS-CoV.

    If indeed SARS-CoV-2 has a higher binding affinity for its host cell receptor, this could also explain why it appears to be transmitted more easily than SARS-CoV.

    Simply, some medical treatments like chloroquine are suitable treatments for SARS-CoV back in 2003 but have LESS success rates in preventing the binding of SARS-CoV-2 to host receptor sites in 2020 because coronaviruses easily evolved into a virus with better defenses as in better transmittable.
    • SARS-CoV is deadlier than SARS-CoV-2 but the difference is that SARS-CoV was quickly contained whereas SARS-CoV-2 was not.
    For what it is worth, you're now talking about Covid...in step with your thread title.

    Whereas, if you wanted to talk about Vaccines and your anti-vaccine opinions...that's the title you should have used. Yet, now that you're venturing into the Fauci and the politics of Covid...be very careful...your thread could be moved into the Political thread section. :D

    Sorry, another Anti-Vaccine Thread

    You can either now begin discussions about Covid (the disease) or continue with your anti-vaccine opinions and the anti-vaccine opinions of others that post misinformation/disinformation about vaccines...your choice.

    Take care and thanks for the article because it open the door for the scientific aspects (molecular biology) of Covid-19 that impacts our health and explains why some medical treatments are more successful against other prior coronaviruses.
