The US should prepare for a possible summer surge of Covid-19 cases
across Southern states, former White House Coronavirus Response Task
Force coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx told CBS on Sunday morning.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
break break
-----------------------------------------------------------------
....
Dr. Anthony Fauci, President Joe Biden's chief medical adviser and the
director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases,
caused a stir last week when he said, "We are certainly, right now, in
this country, out of the pandemic phase." He clarified that later to
explain he didn't mean that the pandemic is over, but that the country
is in a transition phase.
"We're not over the pandemic. Don't let anybody get the
misinterpretation that the pandemic is over, but what we are in is a
different phase of the pandemic," Fauci said. "A phase that's a
transition phase, hopefully headed toward more of a control where you
can actually get back to some form of normality without total
disruption of society, economically, socially, school-wise, etc."

So. The pandemic is over............but it's not over.........it's
transitioning to being over.........maybe..........

Birxism. Fauciism. Somebodyism. Pick your science and bygod Follow It.
And be ready to transitorily evolve and pivot at a moment's notice. If
you think it might reduce any anxiety you may have, take 3 deep
breaths and triangulate your metrics within the relevant context of
the passage of time in your personal social and medical environment.

Meanwhile, be patient - and hopefully not a patient - and wait for the
Disinformation Governance Board to fix this.

Dr. Doctor, Jr.

Or not.
----------------------------------------------------
But we are still in the acute phase of the pandemic, and what endemic
Covid might look like remains a mystery. Endemic diseases can take
many forms, and we do not know yet where this two-year-old disease
will fall among them.
----------------------------------------------------
An "acute" phase is not a transition. "what endemic Covid might look
like remains a mystery".

Man, that's really definitive.
HawHawHaw!

Choose your science.

HawHawHaw!
I've been tellin' y'all this Covid science is like a religion, and I
allege that I think that it's also probably hyped up with OTC
political and professional expediency supplements - possibly disguised
as Fruits and Veggies and osmotic My Pillows. I can hardly wait until
Mary Poppins and the Disinformation Governance Board gets spun up and
gets to the bottom of all this science dis and misinformation.

P/D/U - 47/123/7
Some days and moments - when all the atmospheric and geophysics
metrics triangulate and align efficaciously - are better than others.
Starlink is my religion, and Musk is my preacher.
However comma in all transparency, let me be literally clear at the
end of the day going forward - if a Church of Fiberopticsism were
available to me, I'd convert in a heartbeat and leave Starlink
foundering in LEO. (i would have said foundering in heaven but i think
heaven is somewhat further up than leo)(for those of you who believe
in heaven)

It's a scientific fact, and verified by most religions, that JohnGeorge
consumed all the Stupid pills. And, he wants to know why you think
heaven is higher than a law enforcement officer.

If there is a heaven, I think it's way way way up there. Higher than
anything in all of history. 'Course, it could also be literally right
around the corner in another dimension or alternate universe. And
nothing says it couldn't be inside that box with the cat in it.
Context is everything. Sometimes. Depends on your personal immutable
metrics. Unless they happen to be transitory in the passage of time.

Compared to my DSL, it is. Take comfort in that.
