    But he knows a ‘camel’ when he sees one, unlike old Joe Biden who can only muster complex legislation through Congress and hold together the Western alliance and end pandemics

      Pandemic isn’t over. We’re just over pandemic. 4500 deaths a week in the US from covid.

        The Measles virus isn’t over either. A vaccine was created in 1963. By 1981, the number of reported measles cases was 80% less compared with the previous year. Today there are outbreaks in Britan. Why? Didn’t get the damn shot.

          Honestly, the only evidence I’ve ever seen to support the idea of vaccines causing brain damage are all these idiots now who got vaccines as kids, never died from the illnesses they were vaccinated against, and now somehow come to the conclusion that they’re bad.

            The fact that all these fatcat Republican assholes live until they’re 105 despite eating awful food and getting no exercise is a testament to the wonders of modern medical science. Unfortunately.

            In the same vein, though, and far more likely: my grandpa used to say that the world was going to shit as soon as the playgrounds weren’t made of metal structures over cracked concrete. All the idiots that wouldn’t have made it long enough ended up having kids, ad nauseum. Smart money’s not on the vaccines making them stupid AF, but their parents themselves.

      I’m all for giving him credit when due, but ending a pandemic by having it turn into an endemic feels cheating.
