    Why ‘shielding the elderly & vulnerable’ alone & letting the ‘young and healthy’ just get covid was a terrible idea -> everyone should have had the chance to be vaccinated & protected prior to infection.

    “Covid-19 was the leading medical cause of death among all US residents under age 55 during 2021.” Since the start of the pandemic there has been a 30% increase in all-cause mortality among US adults ages 18-49, and a 26% increase among adults ages 50-64.

    Where did the teenager get his weapons, practice shooting, find $ to buy armaments, garner his obscene ideology? And how could the parents, living w/him under lockdowns, be unaware of his violent racist beliefs & schemes?

    Most strains circulating in humans today are evolved from prior strains that jumped from animals (birds, swine) to humans, often more than 150 years ago. Population immunity changes w/generations -- when low, ancient strains can surge. H1N1 in 1918, and in 2009, e.g.

    Today's H1N1 flu is a descendant of the influenza virus that caused the catastrophic 1918 pandemic. Genetic data from 1918 flu samples recently discovered in Germany corroborate US research showing genomic segments of seasonal H1N1 are descended from 1918
