    North Korea today reported that six people have died of COVID. We're supposed to believe nobody in North Korea died of COVID during the first 28 months of the global pandemic? Sorry, I'm not buying it.

    COVID-19 vaccine boosters are critical for older adults. Why aren't more people getting them?

    More than 350 children in the United States have died of COVID. On November 2, 2021, COVID-19 vaccines were approved for children ages 5 to 11. Booster shots are now awaiting CDC approval.

    FDA clears COVID booster shot for healthy kids ages 5 to 11
    US regulators hope an extra vaccine dose, which still needs the CDC's approval, will enhance children's protection as infections rise once again.

    Approximately 0.3% of the people who have died of COVID were 18 or younger. Almost 500 children age 5 and younger have died. Starting next week, Pfizer and Moderna vaccines will be available for young children.

    SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is constantly mutating. There have been several variants including Alpha (B.1.1.7), Beta (B.1.351), Delta (B.1.617.2) and Omicron (BA.1). There have been four subvariants of Omicron – BA.2, BA.2.12.1, BA.4 and BA.5 – each of which is more transmissible than the original Omicron virus. BA.4 and BA.5 now account for more than 52% of new cases of COVID in the United States.

    'The worst version' of COVID is spreading. Can we update our vaccines in time?

    Worldwide, more than 572,000,000 people have gotten COVID – and medical experts say the SARS-CoV-2 virus will never be eradicated. Lovely.

    President Joe Biden tests positive for COVID, experiencing mild symptoms
    The President is fully vaccinated, twice boosted and is expected to "respond favorably" to treatment, his physician said.

    Monkeypox is a zoonosis, a viral infection that can be transmitted from animals to humans. There are more than 16,500 cases reported in 74 countries. Today the World Health Organization declared the global monkeypox outbreak to be "a public health emergency of international concern." Monkeypox joins two other "public health emergencies," polio and COVID.

    President Trump initially said COVID-19 is nothing to worry about because "it's just one guy coming in from China." He later called COVID a "hoax" and said COVID is no worse than the flu or a cold. On February 27, 2020, he declared, "It’s going to disappear. One day, it’s like a miracle – it will disappear." On May 8, 2020, he said COVID "is going to go away without a vaccine." On June 17, 2020, he announced, "It's going to fade away." On July 4, 2020, he declared that 99% of COVID cases are "totally harmless." So are Retrumplicans angry at Trump for spreading all these lies? No, they're angry at Fauci for telling the truth!

    Dr. Anthony Fauci criticizes 'tireless' vaccine misinformation spreaders, plans to testify before GOP House
    The retiring head of the National Institute of Allergy & Infectious Diseases says he regrets not more forcefully countering rampant vaccine disinformation.

    Many people complained about the name – but no monkeys complained. I think the WHO is over-reacting.

    World Health Organization renames monkeypox as mpox, citing racism concerns
