CLAY: Maybe Joe Biden is going to go for a grand pronouncement at his State of the Union address, which is suspiciously late, as we get close to the spring. Usually, the State of the Union is in January, and now it is pushed all the way back to March, and so maybe Joe Biden is going to make some grand pronouncement about covid at that point in time.

But listen to what Boris Johnson has done now in England. Obviously, Boris Johnson, under fire for a variety of parties, for not necessarily following — his government following — the restrictions that he put in place for other people. But listen to what is happening right now in England. And this is also, by the way, happening in Ireland, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, and many other European countries where they’re effectively saying, “Hey, covid is over here. No more restrictions at all.” That’s what England is doing. Listen.

BREAKING: Prime Minister Boris Johnson announces the government will remove all Covid restrictions in England, including the legal requirement to self-isolate, a month early.

BUCK: Ah.

CLAY: It’s kind of a big deal.

BUCK: Kind of a big deal, Clay. It’s interesting how these other countries have also been much more willing to release children from the grips of their mask and otherwise covid lockdown-induced hysteria. And this needs to be happening all over the place. Look, it’s all coming here, too, because the virus is receding very rapidly right now. It’s down.

The 14-day change according to the New York Times website — which is just CDC data reflected through the Times’ website — is down 63% in two weeks, okay? The virus is cratering. What’s fascinating is, as you see an analysis of it, it will be the same mask/no mask. Different areas of the country that are near each other, whether these policies are in place or not, it’s just coming down everywhere because we’re past the respiratory virus season peak just like last year.

Isn’t it amazing, Clay, just like last year the middle of January, late January, worst covid case numbers, this year same thing despite the vaccinations. And the variance we’re seeing the deaths right now, the 14-day change on that is deaths are actually up 9%. Now, that’s ’cause deaths are a lagging indicator.

Also, people often spend a week, 10 days in the hospital fighting covid and then sometimes obviously tragically unsuccessfully. But 2500 deaths a day is what they’re counting right now. That’s a lot of people, considering what we’ve been told about the incredible efficacy of the vaccine against hospitalization and death. I know they had been saying it was 99% unvaccinated people. You’re going to see that number, folks, drop and drop and drop.

CLAY: In fact, it’s kind of vanished, that argument. Remember we started off the winter with Joe Biden putting out the official statement that it was going to be a winter of death for the unvaccinated. You’ve ready even started to see the White House back away from the argument that this is a “pandemic of the unvaccinated,” because the data — at least if you look at Israel which is far more reliable than the data that we have here — reflects, as Alex Berenson told us last week, that the covid shot, the covid vaccine, whatever you want to call it…

Which is making Pfizer, by the way, $50 billion. Kind of a monster deal, that we have mandated a for-profit corporation’s product be used by almost everyone in the United States on some level and that they’re gonna end up making $50 billion, Buck. And, oh, by the way, they also have protection against any lawsuits. So that’s a pretty good business you are in if you are in the drug business, to be able to get hooked up like that.

And so it is going to be pretty wild to see how this continues to shake out. But again, England, Ireland, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, among other countries effectively saying, “Covid is over; we are ending all restrictions,” and I gotta say, I feel like Biden may try to make a grand pronouncement at the State of the Union as we get close to the spring. And, Buck, we predicted on this show right around January 14th or January 15th, there was gonna be the peak in cases.

We nailed that, and then we said, “Hey, you know, this trails by three or four weeks the overall death rate before it starts to come down.” Now, remember, a lot of these people who are dying are dying “with” covid, not dying “of” covid. So it got so common, Omicron did, that a lot of people are just testing positive. And I think Berenson’s point is a good one, that many of the unvaccinated people who are dying are so ill that they’re not actually being vaccinated at all because they are not healthy enough, which is pretty significant.
