South Korea Marks Another New Record High in Daily COVID Cases, Over 176,000
South Korea’s COVID situation continues to be pretty bizarre because across the rest of the world cases are dropping significantly while the ROK’s continues to skyrocket. Anyone have any guesses on why this is?:
South Korea’s new COVID-19 infections hit a fresh high of over 176,000 on Tuesday amid the fast spread of the omicron variant across the country.
According to health authorities and local governments, a total of 176,786 cases had been confirmed nationwide as of 6 p.m., up 58,786 from the tally posted at the same time the previous day, and marked an all-time high. The previous daily record was set on Feb. 23 at 171,451.
The total number for Tuesday is expected to rise further, as daily cases are counted until midnight and announced the following morning.
Earlier, the country reported 138,993 new coronavirus infections, including 138,935 local cases, raising the total caseload to 3,273,449, according to the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA).

The fact that Omicron is effectively a bad cold might be the answer, GI. I do not believe all of the test kits are reliable. And no government is releasing all of the data necessary for us to make fully-informed choices.
It would not be beyond reason to assume certain governments distributed kits designed to offer false positives in order to maintain their control over people terrified if the sniffles. Even nominally “Christian” nations had some leaders who allegedly infected Senior Citizens on purpose during the more deadly phase of the disease (*cough* *cuomo* *cough*) in order to ramp up the panic.
I’m not naming country names; but it’s also possible that certain other Asian nations might think it a military or economic advantage to “sabotage” South Korea in such a way.
Reposting from eariler, fits better here. With the number of vax’d expect deaths to increase. Seems the vax is not good for you, who would have guessed that????? https://nationalfile.com/new-study-age-groups-50-years-old-greater-risk-fatality-receiving-covid-19-inoculation/
Flyingsword, we knew all that for a year just by piecing together bits of statistics from here and there and trying to build a bigger picture.
I cannot give informed consent when the data is hidden from me.
That really should have been a warning sign to anybody considering the vaccine.
So much about covid was a lie, there is no reason to think the only thing they were truthful on was Safe and Effective.
Well… too bad. Guess the vaxtards weren’t better than everyone else just because they complied.
Those complaining about their side effects will be disregarded whiners like victims of Gulf War Syndrome or Agent Orange… sick and ignored.
Good for them. They lost my support when they demanded I comply too.
I pity the mentally ill right up until the point it is pushed off onto me.
Oh well. Who cares. We have a manufactured World War 3 to fret over now.
I hope all of you have financial, employment, supply, social, quality of life, communication, technology, etc., plans like I do.
Otherwise, you are probably going to learn why grandma washed her aluminum foil.
It is said that the years of isolation resulting from Covid has somehow affected the mental stability of Vladimir Putin.
I believe that Dear Comrade Setnaffova being cooped up in his house for the past two years has also affected his mental health as can be see by his comments claiming that there is a big conspiracy afoot.
If Dear Comrade Setnaffova won’t seek professional mental help then his relatives should do us all a favor and take away his computer and mobile devices before he does something really stupid and incriminating.
It is so funny how little KP actually knows about me. Now, it is true that folks like him, living in a collectivist ****hole were probably quarantined or incarcerated as his fanfic indicates; but I live in Texas…
Here’s hoping he can finally get over his TDS before 2024 restarts it…
but I live in Texas…
Ahh yes, I live in the US so I can do and say whatever I want without worrying about getting arrested line.
It’s ironic if one thinks that the American Southerners, Republicans, and Trump Supporters enjoy the benefits of the freedom provided to them under the US Constitution and system, but at the same time seek to undermine and destroy it while collaborating with the Russians.
While we are on the subject of Texas;
A Texarkana man is behind bars after police say he created a fake news article stating a positive case of the coronavirus had been identified at the Bowie County Jail Annex.

So if one lives in Texas, it seems that one can be charged and arrested for spreading fake news about Covid-19.
It seems Texans are famous for spreading fake news and misinformaiton about Covid-19
A San Antonio man was sentenced today to 15 months in prison for perpetrating a hoax related to COVID-19 in April 2020.
According to court records, a federal jury found Christopher Charles Perez, aka Christopher Robbins, 40, guilty of two counts of 18 U.S.C. § 1038, which criminalizes false information and hoaxes related to biological weapons.

Dear Comrade Setnaffova may say ‘What has this got to do with me? I didn’t say anything about biological weapons.’
But, Setnaffova continually stated that the vaccines were part of a grand biological experiment targeting humans which were perpetuated by Dr. Faucci.
In a way he is implying that the vaccines are biological weapons and since the information he spreads are fake, he can theoretically be charged under 18 U.S.C. § 1038, which criminalizes false information and hoaxes related to biological weapons.
The truth is a wonderful defense in cases like the two you mentioned.
You should try it some time.
Also, “word to yer mum.”
😉
The truth is a wonderful defense
This is truly serious. Dear Comrade Setnaffova’s mental capabilities are melting down. Now he is showing symptoms of delusional disorder.
Maybe the cancer ridden brain that Korean Man previously mentioned?
Pity to the family of Dear Comrade Setnaffova who now have to shell out a lot of money for his mental treatment.
