More Evidence COVID is Smart  

Incredibly, the COVID virus can count.
It knows the difference between 99 and 100.
It switches off and becomes incommunicable in companies of 99 employees or less.
It switches on and threatens the safety of everyone everywhere when one employee is added.

COVID is smart enough to know the reverse too -- fire the 100th employee to make it 99
and immediately there's no need for the previously applied preventative action or a safety alarm,
despite the fact we're in the worst pandemic in the history of humanity
according to those allowed to speak.

Thankfully, those in power know this. This makes sense since they also know the smart COVID virus is so deadly walking through a restaurant but it becomes incommunicable when you sit down and take your mask off to eat, or when you take it off to take a bite or sip but then put it back on in-between bites. Smart COVID also is insidious in targeting certain buildings, like county government offices or Social Security Administration offices, so extra cautions and closures need to be taken there, but smart COVID isn't so concerned about what goes on in Walmart or Costco so they never need to close.

This also applies in airplanes - masks on when smart COVID is deadly during boarding and normal flight but masks off when normal flight includes a served meal. Smart COVID also knows when you're in an airplane terminal too, so social distancing plus masks are mandatory, but get on the plane minutes later and you can sit close without distancing as long as you have the mask. COVID is smart enough to respect the need to keep the nation moving, and the airlines in business.

The COVID virus is also smart enough to take into consideration social and political nuances. A wedding or a church meeting or a birthday party is a condemnable super-spreader offence but the USPS, a company of 495,000 employees, can be exempt from mandates, even though its employees spread out across the nation and go to everyone's house and business daily. Of course, they also are part of a union that represents large campaign donations. 

And for sure, smart COVID knows to attack a gathering of motorcyclists during their yearly get-together and spread far and wide so this kind of activity must be banned, but it shies away from riots in the name of fighting systemic badness so as long as the cause is deemed just, smart COVID is on the side of justice and won't attack, so the riot or demonstration may proceed as densely packed and maskless as need be.

And if you are an ex-President, then smart COVID knows better to show up at your birthday party when the Secret Service is around, so the ex-President can have as big a party as he wants and only the service staff need to wear masks, naturally, because they are not elite enough to be passed over by smart COVID.

Continuity of government is so vitally important during a global deadly crisis, and yet the COVID virus is smart enough not to affect Congress so they can be exempt too. That also goes for the congressional staff, the Judicial branch, and the White House staff, all of whom are essential to government and yet not essential to be inoculated due to smart COVID's discriminating intelligence.

And of course, smart COVID is too wise to hang around the very scientists and Big Pharma goliaths tasked with controlling and out-smarting viruses, so the following entities also get exemptions from the 100 employee mandate -- CDC, FDA, NIAID, Pfizer, and Moderna.

Smart COVID is also sensitive to the difficulties of collective bargaining. The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and the National Education Association (NEA) have encouraged all teachers to get vaccinated but their policy leaves room for local unions to negotiate these requirements with their school districts. Both organizations say they support vaccine mandates but they stop short of demanding it. This is because it’s very rare for national unions to do anything that would tie the hands of their local chapters. National unions don’t want to usurp local bargaining power—if they come out in favor of a mandate, that could weaken the locals’ positions in bargaining. Regardless of the science of epidemics or the threat of death for millions of school children, the national teacher's unions are not included in the 100 employee mandate. It's a very involved, sensitive matter and of course smart COVID is insightful enough to back off its deadly scourge in response. 

And naturally, the smart COVID virus has a social conscience and switches itself off for the more than 1 million immigrant crossings of the US-Mexico border in the first seven months of 2021, so all border crossings without due process or medical screenings can be exempt too, even though great numbers of these people will be distributed by the federal government for settlement in communities throughout the country. But smart COVID knows better than take advantage of this as a super-spreader event.

But what about the 40 million Americans who have had COVID and have natural immunity? Israeli researchers discovered that natural immunity is 27 times more effective than the inoculation. So should natural immunity be an exemption? Well, in fact -- no, since COVID is smart enough to detect you haven't received an inoculation so it will attempt even harder to infect you.

And if you work at a company of 100 employees or more, you'll either have to be vaccinated or test negative weekly in order to work; of course, getting vaccinated does not prevent you from catching the COVID virus and getting sick or spreading the disease, so one might wonder why aren't all employees -- vaccinated or not -- required to test weekly. But no, the COVID virus is smart enough to know that you've been vaccinated AND that you work for a company of 100 employees or more, so it will just pass by those vaccinated employees while regular vaccinated people could still become sick and spread it to others.

It'll be a lot easier if you realize how science and smart COVID work together. Just remember -- the protected need to be protected from the unprotected by forcing the unprotected to use the protection that didn't protect the protected.

It just makes sense when you follow the science and realize just how smart the COVID virus really is. It's amazing how in so many ways COVID appears smarter than the people it infects.
And that's the most worrisome thing of all.

Will Fear Stop The Vaccine?  What To Do?

From every direction we hear the cry - we all need a vaccine as soon as possible. The world won't be safe until billions of doses of vaccine are available. Life cannot be allowed to return to any figment of normalcy until the vaccine is made ready. But Covid fearporn is everywhere. The world locks down more each day. An incessant drumbeat of 24/7 news predicts a calamitous winter of dead bodies stacking high outside overrun ICU's. The end is nigh and to utter anything but agreement with this assessment warrants being censored, attacked, and ostracized. People go ballistic and scream at anyone who dares move a muscle without wearing a mask. Life as we know is cancelled until further notice due to the extreme threat from Covid. People have nothing left to do other than cower in their homes in their hazmat suits, six feet from family members, and watch in terror as dire developments unfold on TV. 

And yet all of this fearporn raises a significant problem. Don't suggest there are any other problems with fearporn. There's only one problem and that is -- people are now too afraid to leave their houses to go get the Covid vaccine. What a dilemma. The situation is so bleak and everyone is so terribly afraid, that now ironically when the Covid vaccines are finally becoming available, the terrified populace is too catatonic with fear to go get the jab. Going outside is just too unsafe. And now with the second and third wave of Covid about to hit us, it's only getting more unsafe! We've been told this for months now. So what to do? How can we solve this horrific situation for indeed, as we are told, we all need the vaccine as soon as possible. In fact, we need several doses of it over the next year at least. In fact, Covid-19 is predicted to return every year from now on and so repeated, frequent booster jabs of vaccine will be necessary for the rest of our lives - at least. But how can we get this vital fix to the people? How can we keep them on a schedule of repeated doses over time into the unsafe years ahead?

If we combine science with lessons from the recent election in the United States, we find there is a way. Science has developed microneedle patches that are easily applied to the skin and can release vaccines safely and without need for complicated medical procedures. What we need to do is mail doses of Covid vaccine in microneedles to everyone in the country. They receive the dose at home via the U.S. Mail and then they apply the microneedle patch to their own arm. Afterward, they mail back an affidavit that acknowledges they have given themselves the vaccine. When the government receives these mail-in affidavits, the government sends back an official Covid Pass Card. The newly vaccinated person will need to show their Covid Pass Card to travel, attend events, and enter establishments of business. Only people who possess the Covid Pass Card will be allowed to travel, attend events, and enter businesses. And there should be no problem trusting the vaccine mail-in affidavits. After all, mail-in ballots worked just fine for electing a President, just ask Google, or Facebook, or Twitter, or any of the mainstream news outlets. Obviously, the same system can work for the Covid Pass Card. Anyone who questions the validity of the Covid Pass Card mail-in affidavits should immediately be fact-checked and referred to coverage of the 2020 election.
