"But I thought COVID was over because the president said so?!!!?"
Only if you bleach your asshole and shine some uv on it.
The quotes make me think this is a sarcastic comment about Trump supporters rather than an attack on the president. But if I'm wrong, here's the quote.
"The pandemic is over," he said. "We still have a problem with COVID."
Emphasis mine.
The pandemic is over, we lost the fight and now it's endemic like influenza.
My comment was meant as a reference related to that quote by Biden, who also now claims to have ended the pandemic. This is a rather bold claim, considering how the WHO has said that the pandemic isn't over, and one country can't end a pandemic when it's global by definition. Also, when looking at cumulative COVID deaths by administration, there has been now more under Biden than Trump.
Okay, in which case the flu pandemic is also not over. (According to the WHO article). And comparing deaths in less than a year (400k) with deaths over three and a half (700k) is a fun way to manipulate statistics
And, I'm going to watch the Harrisburg speech. Because I can't find a transcript and I suspect the twitter quote is as bullshit as your COVID one (which is bullshit because if you use quotation marks, you need to quote somebody, not put words in their mouth and take it out of context). I'll report back in an hour.
Edit: He did say he ended the pandemic. That is some serious hubris I admit. Not like Trump doesn't have hubris in spades but you do you.
Also, when looking at cumulative COVID deaths by administration, there has been now more under Biden than Trump.
Well, duh. Almost 4 years of data vs 1?
