It appears the Wuhan Flu has a nasty tendency of infecting heavily-vaccinated liberals who are either current or former employees of the U.S. federal government.
Such was the case on Tuesday when two of liberalism’s leading ladies announced their positive coronavirus diagnosis.
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced Tuesday evening that she has tested positive for COVID-19.
“I’ve got some mild cold symptoms but am feeling fine,” Clinton said in a statement posted to Twitter, adding that she was “grateful” for the protection provided by the COVID-19 vaccines.
Bill tested negative and is feeling fine. He's quarantining until our household is fully in the clear. Movie recommendations appreciated!

Clinton said in another tweet that her husband, former President Bill Clinton, had “tested negative and is feeling fine.”
In other COVID-19 news, White House press secretary Jen Psaki revealed Tuesday that she had again tested positive for COVID-19 after contracting the virus last year.
Today, in preparation for travel to Europe, I took a PCR test this morning. That test came back positive, which means I will be adhering to CDC guidance and no longer be traveling on the President’s trip to Europe.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki has been benched from a second foreign trip in a row after testing positive for COVID-19.
Thanks to the vaccine, I have only experienced mild symptoms. In alignment with White House COVID-19 protocols, I will work from home and plan to return to work in person at the conclusion of a five-day isolation period and a negative test.

Psaki had two socially distanced meetings with President Joe Biden this week before he departs for Brussels, Belgium, and Warsaw, Poland, for high-stakes talks regarding the war in Ukraine, according to the press secretary. Biden tested negative for COVID-19 earlier Tuesday.
Psaki missed Biden’s trip to Italy and the United Kingdom last year after contracting COVID-19 from a family member.
Biden has had several brushes with the virus over the past week, though none have been “close contacts.” Last week, Vice President Kamala Harris’s husband, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, and Irish Taoiseach Micheal Martin tested positive for the Wuhan Flu. Harris has taken precautions but has so far not returned a positive result.
So what is the average American citizen supposed to gather from this firestorm of positive COVID cases from politicians who are the most forceful about vaccination?
While the vaccine may prevent severe illness and hospitalization, it certainly does not prevent baseline infection, proven by the increase in positive cases among government officials. But if the vaccine works, why isn’t it preventing infection? Isn’t that the entire point?
Meanwhile, case counts are still being used as an indicator for stricter mandates and lockdown measures…
Really makes you think.
