Yes, why the hype over every single thing? Just fishing for possible reasons to extend states of emergency or something else?

I don't recall RSV being "a thing" prior the forcing people to wear face diapers all the time and keeping kids home and away from other kids.

I wonder how Sweden's RSV numbers are? (Tongue firmly planted in cheek)

I have seen this over and over, and wondered the same. It is just to control us and incite fear. I am a Licensed Massage Therapist and Certified Lymphedema Therapist with a lot of sick clients since last year. Lymphomas, recurrent breast and new breast cancers, swollen lymph nodes everywhere and severe stiffness & nerve damage body-wide. My hands & arms have also taken a beating, always dealing with rashes, hives, pustules, and the like. I hope someone will do a study on skin to skin transmission of this MRNA garbage soon. I have had biopsies, blood work and it all comes up negative for disease or auto immune. If I missed this research, please direct me to it. If you need a Guinea pig, I volunteer!

May God Bless you Dr McCullough and your team.

Are they going to continue declaring "national emergencies" for respiratory viruses that have been with us forever? I am getting fed-up.

Thanks Peter!

Always good to reassure those sitting on that fence of fear,

that things are not always as we hear, nor as they appear.

No fun missing the memo, or being left out of the loop. Ever!

I think the fear mongering started for nefarious reasons and then became rote. Scaring people to follow a mishandled health policy, gaining attention and clicks, virtue signaling, and now a bad habit. Shameful.

In the Phoenix area, the RSV virus has resulted in a lot of kids getting intubated and pediatric floors being filled. There has also been an increase in adults getting diagnosed. So while in the past, RSV, was a common winter infection in the pediatric population with minimal mortality, this year has definitely been different in terms of morbidity and mortality.

My brother supposedly got Covid at the start, over reacted and landed in the hospital for a week. The hospital wanted to release him after a week and he said he wasn’t ready. Also, a restaurant owner told me in March 2020 he was feeling slightly sick but when he was diagnosed positive with the “pcr test” he felt more so and acknowledged that it was imagined fear

The good and bad news over the hype is crying “wolf” too often tends to make us ignore the hullabaloo. But, as the story goes, when you ignore the alarm, eventually the wolf comes in before you can stop it. We need to evolve our alarm systems in order to deal with these viral bad guys and their damaging tactics.

Politicians need to the emergency, even if manufactured to keep hold of their power. Ny gov called polio a state emergency last year after a few cases
