So they are going back to an oldie but goodie.

I suspect the media is trying to revive the pandemic scare, and I do mean scare, in order to make people turn over Congress. The hope is people will remember Trump was in office when the country was shut down the first time and are hoping they will associate the flu season with Trump and be more amenable to voting Democrat.

I doubt it will work because I suspect most people remember it was Joe Biden who wouldn't let it end, and it was the Democrats who shut down society in their states. I suspect if this issue doesn't gain them much traction they will drop it. They will REALLY drop it if polling shows a negative reaction.

Are we having a bad flu season? I'm sure we are; people who were locked down for years have now gotten back out, with their immune systems weakened by the enforced isolation of the pandemic and the Covid shot. But is it a "superflu" as they are putting it? I seriously doubt it. Just a normal flu bug that is having a nastier effect than usual on weakened immune systems.

We'll develop herd immunity soon enough if we don't go into a panic. That panic is the fondest hope of the media and the Democrats, I might add.

Like we were told with drugs, we should JUST SAY N!
