President Biden infected and reinfected, but up close and unmasked again ... more photos 8/10/22

Last update: Wednesday 8/10/22 

Most of the text of this short blog note are the headlines linked to articles in the mainstream media. As readers will surmise, President Biden's version of the reality TV show "Survivor" has had its contract renewed by CDC Productions for another season.

Regular readers of this blog may recall that the editor published the following note from time to time throughout July 2022. Its title question was finally answered in the affirmative on 7/21/22

• "Has President Biden been infected by Omicron yet? Yes, on 7/21/22" 
  7/12/22

The back story for last season's "Biden Survivor" had appeared in numerous prior publications, e.g. ...

• "You Are Going to Get COVID Again … And Again … And Again", Katherine J. Wu, The Alantic, 5/27/22 
• "Covid’s risks are concentrated among Americans of Biden’s age.", Benjamin Mueller, NY Times, 7/21/22

Las season's final episodes played out over a few days, beginning on 7/21/22:

• "Biden, 79, is experiencing fatigue, a runny nose and a dry cough after testing positive.", Michael D. Shear, NY Times, 7/21/22   
• "Biden’s Covid Symptoms Continue to Improve, Doctor Says", Zach Montague, NY Times, 7/25/22
• "Biden Tests Negative for Covid and Will End Isolation", Peter Baker and Michael D. Shear, NY Times, 7/27/22
• "Biden tests positive again for coronavirus after Paxlovid ‘rebound’", Yasmeen Abutaleb, Washington Post, 7/31/22 
• "Biden Tests Negative for Coronavirus but Remains in Isolation", Peter Baker, NY Times, 8/6/22
• "President Biden again tests negative for COVID, ends isolation", Eric McDaniel, NPR, 8/7/22 

When the President finally emerged from self-isolation on 8/7/22, the editor hoped that the show would be cancelled because the president had hit the trifecta: infection, Paxlovid, and Paxlovid rebound. What other COVID goals could he strive for in another season? However, upon reviewing the headlines for recent articles on his blog's Omicron page, the editor encountered this link:

• Covid-19 reinfections may increase the likelihood of new health problems", Brenda Goodman, CNN, 7/5/22

What new health problems????? .... bingo, bingo, bingo, BAM!!! Long COVID!!! Of course. Having worked so hard to become infected, the president has jumped back into the COVID cesspool once again in hopes of achieving long COVID. What other reason could he have for up-close, unmasked schmoozing with survivors of the floods in Kentucky, as shown in the photo at the top of this blog note that was copied from the @POTUS Twitter feed on 8/8/22 ... just one day after POTUS emerged from isolation?

Good luck, Mr. President. Break a leg!!!

P.S. Below find the first of what will likely become many photos from the @POTUS Twitter feed showing Biden indoors, unmasked, surrounded by adoring unmasked throng.
