There's still money to be made from this. Keep milking it.
I don't know anybody who regrets NOT getting the vaccine.
All I know is a hell of alot of young men women have had heart attacks , since being vaccinated...
I'm not saying anything that is what caused them im just saying 🤷
Liar, All my workers regret it! They don't feel the same. Its like a dark shadow of being more sad.
Alot of health workers resist aspirating the needle
@@lovetruth5518I regret having gotten it too
Soon you wont need an injection, new and improved delivery systems coming soon, Chem' spraying, Food, Beef, Fish, baby food, milk, toothpaste, you name it we are under attack, help those who would listen and those who wont, god bless
Just in time for the elections.
yeah just turn it on and off when you want, lock ups lock downs, anytime.
No vaccine no booster no mask no symptoms don’t know how I survived 🤔
Ditto
ATCG to ATCCCG
I second that.
Amazing, isn't it? Me too!😂
Luck?
What's going on with the heart problem study? Is it still 160 blank pages? Will the media be held responsible? Will the president be held responsible for wishing harm on us?
Why not blame Trump too? He claims responsibility for the vaccines and has had many shots. Why don't you criticise him as well?
@@sonofamountie he was a mean guy, but I dont remember him forcing anything or wishing the country illness and death for the holidays? Do you? I'm interested in learning, especially if it can change my opinion
@@bcumike I don't remember Biden wishing the country illness or death for the holidays either. Both urged people to get the vaccine and Trump wants to take credit for getting the vaccine done as he puts it. It's true that Biden tried to put Federal mandates in place but states put their own in place when Trump was president including Red and Blue states. I don't see how you can blame one but not the other.
@@sonofamountie Google: biden wishes illness
Everyone wanted a cure all, but then it was mismanaged, and forced on us, and studies withheld for profit
Is that all you people think about is politics
Who the hell names these variants?
Don't forget the "Monkeypox" which was considered "racist." lmao
These names are just hilarious.
Virologists. They didn't invent the name out of thin air, though. There are two genes that have been swapped in this variant. The genes are like a line of code, and two segments in that code got switched in this particular mutation-- an F for an L got switched, and an R for a T got switched. So virologists remember these FLRT changes by calling it FLiRT. It's just a mnemonic. I suppose they could have chosen FLaRT too. 😁
Biden.
Fauci
@@JillKnapp So did this variant come from Wuhan too?
What to know ? Gain of Function Research Continues ...
40000 days to slow the spread!!!
The variant flirt? That sounds pretty cool. A lot of people wouldn't mind having it. lol
It sounds so romantic! I don't mind if a guy chases me.....but not with a needle!😲🤯
Best comment and reply ever 👍
yeah be like some morbid status, oh that's already happened.
Ferrets have one of the closest immune type to humans.
UK has roughly 500000 (half million) Ferrets.
Ferrets spread influenza to humans.
Not a single case of 1 Ferret contracting, spreading or dying of Sars Cov2.
Which animal has been chosen to test model CV19 vaccines on?
The Ferret.
When will the media be held accountable?
Flirt is a terrible name. This is my first infection and it SUCKS. Been sick as a dog.
What were your symptoms? Maybe it would help to restore your gut bacteria. It helped me. My last infection had a terrible impact on my intestines 🙈 for weeks after acute infection. The acute infection didn‘t feel that bad to me but there are long lingering minor seeming symptoms that could be not that minor when lasting chronically.
Both of my granddaughters are sick age 5½ and 8. Younger one got it 1st - presented as ear infection + fever first then stomach ache and 5 days later she is feeling better. 8 year old now just got sent home from school with stomach ache and fever and bad headache.
This strain is different
I have it too. Sore throat was biggest thing for myself. Drenching sweats, bad chills, body aches, sore throat that lasted 5 days, some nausea, some cough. @@877swissmiss
@@antonioortega2588 why would you send your child to school knowing she is or could be sick seeing your other 5yr old was.? Poor little girl...
@@877swissmiss
I say prayer!🥰🙏
Dont feed on vaccines that are faulty, like man.
here they go again...every 4 years now...
Indeed
Oh hush up
If there's ever a variant that's found to be even just a tiny bit more deadly everyone will absolutely lose their minds, we'll never be allowed out again. Not without some kind of digital passport anyway.
Thats the ultimate plan from these psychopaths
NO!
You have to be really dense to not understand what they're doing with all these magic unicorns floating around. 😂🤣🤪
It's not long covid...it's Long Jab!
So what is the difference from a normal flue that can keep you in bed for 5 days?
I’m supposed to wear a mask, but I don’t want to be the only one with a mask. People would stare. I just take my chances with no mask
Just pray, and say, "I CHOOSE GOD! to look after me."🎯🙏👍
@@lovetruth5518That’s a good idea, prayer. I need good karma
Lies lies lies lies lies lies
Why are we still talking about this?
And why would anyone name a virus"Flirt?" That said, living in CA we still got people who wear masks 24/7 inc in the car alone & outdoors so thats a big reason were talking about it. The other is theres a certain something happening in Nov that some feel is why the topic is ramping up....shall we say theyre flirting with the idea?😂
bc its still happening.
@@J-rt9ez it’s been going on for four years. Nothing new and nobody cares anymore
@@mimicoolwhip5991 I name the virus: CRAP!
We still talk about the Flu and ALL other viruses and diseases don't we? Why wouldn't we still talk about covid?
Ahh, the new election variant.
Who names these? So flirty! 😹😹😹
They’re still making money from the fear mongering. 😂😂😂
From who?
@@LostChildOfTime from people who pays for the shot. If you have healthcare insurance then it’s given to you. Also the lobbyist like, Fauci, and government funnel money to the drug companies like Moderma, Phisher, etc.
Do you still believe that it’s not from China? The doctors has admit to it that it was created in China, CNN has reported on this after so many denials.
@@LostChildOfTime taxpayers. Government are funding the drug companies to manufacture the vaccines. Medicine cost more in America than anywhere else. 🙄
Get off it. Covid is real whether you want to believe it or not.
😂😂😂
Lies and more lies.
Not lie i have pain in my tounsile flue and i feel extraim tiredness. My kids all ill cry if u dont have it u gona its just time line
More BS .
You’re right! It is complete nonsense. No variant can form without the vaccine. Trust me, they are not this stupid. This is why Bill Gates is my role model.
👏👏👏👏👏👏Best comment EVER and very few words.
Will it ever end?
Yes, when they stopped purposely throwing it into the air to infect us.
No.
Yes, after the election. They come out right before the presidential election.
Not again 😢
We’re still dealing with the economic chaos from the Covid and now this.
It’s something else man. Both individuals and businesses are getting hit one way or another.
Geert Vanden Bossche!
KP.2 is not "the" FLiRT variant-- it is one variant of many that has a mutation known as FLiRT. So it's "a" FLiRT variant.
Yall still testing and taking them shots🙃
If it makes them more flirty. lmao
I don't drink.
They never said r the vaccines will keep you from getting covid! But it will make it less severe.
We are going to need some Ivermectin 🎉
The clot shot!
Lol. I've had all the shots and the boosters and I'm just fine. All my family too. Darn vaccine kept us all healthy.
@@TruFlyFoxyeah whatever you reckon
@@TruFlyFox
You 70 years ago: "Lol I smoke cigarettes every day and I'm still fine. No cancer. Even the surgeon general says they don't cause cancer. You anti-science weirdos need to grow up." 😂
@@TruFlyFox say that again after a couple of years
@@Arvidje lol. Same thing they told me years ago. Still alive and really healthy. Thank you for your concern. 😂
Still trying to convince people to get the jab eh?
whats so bad about getting it?
@@GeForce1080 well my MIL got Vaccine-induced Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia. It's a severe and chronic blood clotting disease.
@@kathrynpiper3235how many month it make blood clot?
@@ImranBaloch-gl9zn she has the condition for the rest of her life. She must take medication now. She went to the hospital twice to treat clots and has had a stroke.
@@GeForce1080 pay attention damn it
I know someone who i believe had this variant. She was over it in about 3 days. However she had this weird sensitivity to salt. It would make her cough.
Thank you for the information 👍
I ended up getting this variant
You lived didn't you?
@@rgerwin.3378 Of course I lived; I got vaccinated, so I got only flu-like symptoms: fever, lack of taste and smell, coughing, headache, muscle aches, etc. If I weren't vaccinated and/or I were a senior citizen, it would have been a lot worse.
OH NO!!!! WHAT SHALL WE DO???????? LOL!
I Regret Not Getting Vaccinated😢
I Will Not Be Allowed To Join The Massive Lawsuit That Is Most Likely Coming Down The Pike.
I Could Use The Money$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$🤑
Just tested positive- Montréal Canada 🇨🇦
Nicely cooking stories
No shot for me lol
Then good luck if you get covid. The shot does NOT prevent covid. It DOES keep you from getting really sick. They never said it prevented covid!
@@nancyfarkas3592
Stop bs
There are wiretaps
If I were you I would stay out of it
@@nancyfarkas3592
🤡🤣🤣🤣🤣
I haven’t flirted since I got my ex pregnant
😂😂😂🤝
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dang, it's an election year already? Time really is passing by fast
Unfortunately, this is always something to consider to maintain good health. Stay healthy for yourself and others.
The "Our sham trials are failing" Variant
Whatever
As Geert Vanden Bossch predicted....
I ride the bus- germ central... sanitized and still do mask depending no covid
O stop
Why? It's the truth. Wake up!
flirt? this is getting old lol
Can you guys please bring back the lock downs and stimulus checks? We could really use the break😢
Lies lies lies
The entire video is a scientist explaining how MILD this strain is, and how UNLIKELY it is to cause serious illness. You're saying those are lies?
Or you didn't bother to listen and just jumped straight to tin foil hat mode attacking her credibility.
Election year!!!! What a coincidence! NOT!!
Seriously? Get off it
@@nancyfarkas3592 child
Long COVID is no joke, no matter how severe the COVID infection. Protect yourself.
It’s not fun but it does get better when you learn not to fear long Covid. I’m talking from experience as I have it.
@@shaniceervin1465 The mother of a good friend now has a pacemaker because COVID attacked her heart. And another has been in and out of the hospital with lung problems, including a mass in her lung due to her COVID infection. I'm glad you're doing better...but I'll stay away from COVID if at all possible.
It's not long covid, it's long vaccine.
@@terranceoliver6984 Proof? Oh, that's right. You have none. Stop spreading misinformation.
Sorcery in the book of Revelations is pharmakia which is pharmacy. And so humanism is one denying the divinity of Christ believing that mankind can reach perfection on their own which leads in philanthropy were we meet Bill Gates billing everyone at the gate on the broad and spacious road.
Lmfao still pushing this story
Got your view didn't it?
@@Mike-om4tv ya mam
garbage news
What I want to know is where they come up with the names for these variants and why flirt for this new one what's flirty about it And why are we still talking about covid it's a bad flu get over it
Ask they guy who name the MonkeyPox first.
Ain't no way
😭😭why they give that name tho.
We still waiting for Z variant 👍🗿
More bull!
Yeah ok ELECTION YEAR INTERFERENCE!
CDC = 🤥👖🔥
Lies
Rubbish rubbish rubbish
This romantic flirt movie did not receive much hype
I would bet on Money, crime action movie
God forbid, don't sick Fauci on us again.
He has never left. They just stopped talking about him.
Get over it.
I a m a flirt
Brilliant thanks so much
Ha ha ha ha ha
More labs making more virus????!!
as admitted by pfizerrrr
Two vaccines and a booster. Nothing since 2021. Then last month got I Covid. Debilitating for 2-3 weeks. Ugh. Never felt bad after vaccines
After my second, I was lying in bed, shivering and sweating, then I realised, why am I treating this like infection? It's just my immune system reacting to the vaccine. I got up, got some paracetamol in me and I was fine after. Trying to sweat out a vaccine. 😂
Probably shouldn’t have got the injection. I got Covid once I was down for a day and never had it since, I believe I got it from wearing that face mask suppressing my immune system. I have never in my life gotten any flu never and I am 51 years old.
Give it a few years, plandemic unbelievable 😮
@@Luna-wg6icwrong
sounds like you need a booster young lady!
All you need to n ow is your stupid if you fall for this again.
Demons
Did Joe name this one?
🗳👋😆
Ur mama did it
hahahahahaha..............................HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
I’m just here to see all the MAGA comments about “oh election year better come up with a COVID issue” comments
Are you here to flirt or what?
Take your Trump derangement pill if you can afford it because of Dem entia Joe's bidenomics
@@PhilipMarcYT I mean if the Trump supporter is cute, sure
take another booster to stop the spread
I did think any MAGA TOOK THE INJECTIONS. We left that for the dummies.
Another boogeyman 😂
Thank you for covering this…the paid not over for the immunocompromised.
I love science
Including medical science
(Not a flat earther)
Is there a difference anymore?
Not a flat earther? So you believe Australians are spinning upside down right now?😂
@@ThePhilosophicalOne They sure are. You should see what the moon looks like to them. Have an Aussie take a pic of the moon and send it to ya.
@@rc-st9pg Yeah. I've sat across from someone at a dinner table too. He said my dinner plate was on the top half of the table. I said it was on the bottom half.
This arc has already been over
😁
Why don’t these ladies have their masks on?!?! Lol
♻️🌏🕵🏻♂️🦥
🤣aww it’s just flirting
Just in time for the elections in 6 months, lol. How convenient 😮
