#1 The article didn't really explain why the generation thing is so important, or why it is so deadly, and no data was cited.

So I'm suspicious, too. "Outbreak" just north of Adelaide, SA.

#2 We've been hearing statist scare tactics (with some help from the MSM/Silicon Valley) for months on end. Let's just add this one to the list.

#3 Incubated in a stuffy lockdown apartment and then transmitted during a state-authorized outing...

I don't recall anyone in government or elsewhere getting to the bottom of the actual COVID-19 origins.

Is the COVID-19 work in Wuhan continuing? Are more potent strains being developed and clandestinely delivered ?

#5 Gates needs more viruses. We wouldn't want his "humanitarian" work to end now, would we?

#6 Are more potent strains being developed and clandestinely delivered ?

Yes. I can't cite my source, for their protection. But dron could shed some light if he was willing.

#7
Looks like Ausie Lockdowns produced a stronger strain unlike the USA's. Where our strain... what is in its 7 or 8 mutation now and its is 2nd season. Like any flu type virus.

Our has a much much lower mortality rate, based on current CDC data.

Question ??????
Aren't seasons down under the opposite of the northern hemisphere? Shouldn't their warm season now be when any virus infection rate declines?

#10 We need another 4-6 weeks of lockdown.

Just until we flatten the curve.
What? We're not doing "flatten the curve" anymore?
Sheesh, I need to keep up.

#11 Covid has a 1-2 week incubation. Two weeks later Covid rates in Big Blue cities go up two weeks after Biden "won" and everyone celebrated in the Big Blue Cities and they talk about locking down thanksgiving and nobody is even trying to connect the dots.

I remember back when they really, really stretched to blame Sturges for non-existent breakouts.

#12 Sturgis and Trump rallies. And the Super Bowl in February in Miami.

#13 public health officials might be playing up the strain angle to ~~coax~~ hoax people into obeying the state's six day lockdown?

"Lockdowns" control tool of left-wing loons. Have they been right on any of their prognostications? Melting icebergs, rising sea levels, "If you don't adopt The Green New Deal, it's the end of the world soon, if we don't control population, we're all going to starve to death, electric cars, wind energy, and solar energy will solve our energy problems, the Orange Man will have us in a war, and on, and on and on.
