Yep. It was an epic moment. It was the pronouncement heard ‘round the world.
Two old men converged in a conversation that included President Joe Biden and Scott Pelley for Biden’s first interview with a “journalist” in about seven months. That interview aired on Sunday on CBS’ 60 Minutes.
During the interview, Biden declared that the pandemic is over.

What? You didn’t hear about it?
You didn’t hear that you are no longer forced to get a vaccine or wear a mask? Oh, but you are! At least you are if you are in certain segments of the population and in special Democrat areas of the country.
While walking through the Detroit Auto Show, Scott Pelley asked two-time Covid victim Dementia Joe, “is the pandemic over?”
Biden declared, “The pandemic is over.”
He went on to say that we still have a “problem” with Covid and “we’re still doing a lot of work on it.”
But it’s over.
He said, “If you notice, no one’s wearing masks. Everyone seems to be in pretty good shape. And so I think it’s changing. And I think this is a perfect example of it.”
Is that his barometer? Whether people are wearing masks or not? That’s just marketing. And people have figured out that masks don’t work.
But hey… the Oval Office resident has spoken and we can all feel safe now. And, of course, that means that we’re no longer under the tyrannical thumb of the government with their COVID-19 rules.
Yeah, right.
We’re still in a “health emergency” all over the country and probably will be for a long time. Giving up that kind of power is very difficult for oppressive Democrats.
In fact, NYC just fired another 850 teachers and aides for not getting vaccinated which makes for a total of almost 2000 NYC school employee who have been fired. So… the pandemic is over, the vaccines don’t work and yet we still have this idiocy imposed by lunatic Democrats.
While I’m discussing lunatics…Let’s do a fact-check on Biden. Not that we need to, of course, because he’s known to always tell the truth…
So the definition of a pandemic from Merriam-Webster is “occurring over a wide geographic area (such as multiple countries or continents) and typically affecting a significant proportion of the population.”
Yes, COVID-19 seems to qualify under that definition.
And Biden didn’t tell the World Health Organization (WHO) that the pandemic is over. According to Dan Epstein, spokesman for the Pan American Health Organization, a regional office of WHO, “A pandemic is basically a global epidemic.”
Yes, COVID-19 seems to qualify under that definition.
And if you go on the WHO website, yep, it says we’re still in a pandemic.
Sorry, Biden. I give you about a thousand Pinocchios for your proclamation about the end of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Back in the real world, according to Johns Hopkins University data, the United States has had one million deaths in 2022 and there were about 65K new COVID-19 cases reported each day for the past two weeks. About 400 people a day are dying from COVID-19.
CNN reports that Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organization, had a news briefing last week and said, “We have never been in a better position to end the pandemic. We’re not there yet, but the end is in sight.
So there is an end is sight – but it’s not quite here yet.
So King Biden jumped the gun. But it’s to be expected because he needed to declare the pandemic over in order to help the election prospects for the Democrat party.
